If you damaged government property or hurt people, you should be arrested REGARDLESS of which "side" you're on...that's my issue.

WHY? Not one person was charged with, MILLIONS in damages over the past year, nor for over 90% of the murders committed during that time. So why are you on a high horse wanting JUSTICE now??
Double standards much?? Are you, yourself a DemoRat who's drank to much kool aid?
Get out of here with that nonsense!

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel sometimes I feel as though I am not the same person. I see the destruction from city to city associated with BLM. Then I see the destruction associated with Trump Supporters. Then I see inequity of punishment. This is not laying the foundation for fair and impartial resolutions of all the issues at hand. The rising of a full-on full scale civil war could be brewing just beneath the surface of our current history.
