Equal treatment under the law, right? I think every American agrees that when it comes to law enforcement all citizens should be treated the same way.
So, how to explain the disparity in post-arrest treatment between last year’s George Floyd protesters and this year’s detainees from the breach at the U.S. Capitol?
Nothing that follows should be construed as condoning the behavior of those who forcibly invaded our most iconic building on Jan. 6. We were all shocked watching the live TV coverage of the mob, literally, breaking into the Capitol and vandalizing the interior as lawmakers began to ratify the presidential election. It took security forces about four hours to get the situation under control. To date about 580 people have been arrested.
