    If you'll go to YouTube and look up the video, Ted Cruz quotes the law that was broken.

    But I know you won't do that. Lefties will never look at any information that goes counter to their Narrative.

    I just watched a video of Ted Cruz flat out asked the FBI why they weren't
    enforcing a federal law on Leftie "protesters" - even though the FBI

    oddly progressives can burn down court houses and they just get a slap on
    the wrist.

    One excuse you will hear here sometimes is that it was not "Federal"
    property but, last I checked, they were trying to break into the "Federal Courthouse" in Portland in 2020, and "Federal Courthouse" means what it
    says.

    If you point that out, the excuse changes to "they were not successful."
    That is true, but only because the Courthouse was baracaded. They did try
    and, IIRC, were able to bust out some windows and were also able to set
    fires by throwing things inside the perimeter. I don't think they should
    get a pass just because their aim with their Molotov cocktails was off.

    If the Congressional building in DC had similar security in place, the
    January 6 rioters would not have been successful in entering the building, either. Using the logic from above, they should have gotten a pass if
    their plan had only come to fruition as an attempt.

    I doubt anyone claiming the former (Portland 2020 lefty protesters were not successful) would follow that same logic if Jan 6 had turned out the same
    way.

    What you do on your personal time is your business, but that is not art,
    and displaying it publicly in a publicly-funded museum is objectionable.

    The way I saw it when it happened (sometime in the 1990's in Cincinnati,
    which is "local" to me), it was something I could do, which pretty much
    meant it was not art.

    I would assume that "attempted" arson at a federal building is a federal
    crime -- "attempted" only because the building was baracaded and their aim
    was not good.

    Ted and Ron may be thinking of a different incident than I, though. I am thinking of the federal building in Portland during 2020.

    There was also another incident in 2020, but I am not sure which city it
    was in, where a bunch of hoodlums in black outfits broke into a post office
    and ruined several postal vehicles by running them into each other, into
    walls, etc. They videotaped it and posted it to the internet.

    I never heard of any reprocussions of either of those events.

    So what did he say -- if you can believe anything he says.

    Presumably since you made the claim, you should have some idea of your
    own -- or are you just parroting what someone else said in the internet?

    I would assume that "attempted" arson at a federal building is a

    If that was done, they moved from being protesters to being rioters.

    For the first, there might not be any hard evidence of who did it. For
    the second, it would depend on whether or not they identified themselves
    in the video. Multiple Jan6 violators were convicted by their own
    stupidity of bragging about their crime on social media.

    I cannot argue that they were pretty dumb criminals when it came to
    bragging about it. OTOH, the guy that was harrassing my sister's family
    used to brag on social media about "putting so-and-so to sleep permanently"
    but the Louisville cops somehow never have figured out what that means,
    even when so-and-so is found dead about the same time, and putting people
    "to sleep" has been slang for murder since at least the 1930's.
