ANALYSIS – As the establishment media, the current Biden administration, and its Democrat allies in Congress, continue to aggressively push the overwrought narrative that the January 6 Capitol riot was worse than 9/11, while the BLM riots of last year were ‘mostly peaceful,’ here are some simple, undisputed, fully substantiated facts to compare.

We report. You decide.

BLM RIOTS (aka ‘The 2020 Summer of Love’)
• 2,000 police officers injured nationwide.
• $2 BILLION in damages (largest riot damages in U.S. history).

• No rioters were killed by police.
• 19 people were killed during just 14 days of BLM rioting.
• The killing of police officers nationwide surged 28% in 2020 during the BLM riots and protests.

*NOTE – As documented above — at the U.S. Capitol, one Capitol Police officer (Brian Sicknick) died of a stroke unrelated to his fight with rioters, and three civilians outside of the Capitol — out of tens of thousands of peaceful protesters — died of medical conditions.)

**NOTE – Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) did claim to suffer severe emotional trauma and PTSD from the Jan. 6 riot — while she was in her office a block away from the Capitol building where the riot occurred.
