    You want them to discuss the violence committed by blacks? Wouldn't the violence on 1/6 be sufficient?

    The DNC was LONG before 1/6 and ANTIFA is largely White. The BLM riots killed and injured many more than the Capital riot did. So try again In case you forgot the question was why do you support Democrat leaders who in large part ignored the BLM and ANTIFA riots violence.

    The black people rioting has nothing to do with BLM and you know that.

    The very premise of the question is a proven lie...
    In the days following the death of George Floyd in police custody on May 25,*2020,*Joe Biden wrote on his blog,
    “Protesting such brutality is right and necessary. It’s an utterly American response. But burning down communities and needless destruction is not. Violence that endangers lives is not.” (medium.com/@JoeBiden/we-are-a-nation-furious-at-injustice-9dcffd81978f ) He again condemned violence, looting, and the destruction of property on June 2 in Philadelphia ( here) and on July 28 in Wilmington (http://www.c-span.org/video/?474269-...re-economy)*.*
    “But burning down communities and needless destruction is not,” Biden wrote. “Violence that endangers lives is not. Violence that guts and shutters businesses that serve the community is not.”

    In 2017, Pelosi*condemned “the violent actions of people calling themselves antifa" after a protest in Berkley, California,*according to The Washington Post.

    “Our democracy has no room for inciting violence or endangering the public, no matter the ideology of those who commit such acts,” Pelosi said at the time.
    On June 3, Rep. James Clyburn, D-S.C.,*the majority whip of the House of Representatives,*told The Washington Post*that the movement for racial justice suffers when it is “hijacked” by violence.

    "We have to make sure we do not allow ourselves to play the other person’s game,” Clyburn said. “Peaceful protest is our game. Violence is their game. Purposeful protest is our game. This looting and rioting, that's their game. We cannot allow ourselves to play their game."
    On Sept. 7,*2020,*four days after police shot and killed a self-declared anti-fascist activist in Washington state as they moved in to arrest him on suspicion he had fatally shot a right-wing*counter protester*in Portland, Oregon, Biden condemned Antifa in an interview with Pennsylvania*NBC News affiliate*WGAL (here).
    Asked by reporter Barbara Barr, “Do you condemn Antifa?” Biden responded, “Yes I do—violence no matter who it is.”**
    In early September, Susan Rice, who served as Obama’s national security adviser, and who has been tapped for a top domestic policy job with Biden, condemned violence at sustained Black Lives Matter protests in Oregon and Washington. She said: ‘There have been elements that have come and engaged in violence which is reprehensible, condemnable, not acceptable under any circumstances, but they don’t define the protests.’




    The Jan. 6*attack on the U.S. Capitol building and U.S. Congress by mobs of Donald Trump supporters has inspired a flood of condemnation, and rightly so.

    Five people are dead in its wake, including a Capitol Police officer; more than 70 people have been arrested; and the FBI has indicated hundreds of additional arrests could happen. Trump’s critical role in stirring up the violence led to his unprecedented second impeachment on Wednesday.

    The attack is indefensible.*

    But I have seen entirely too many people, especially on social media, compare the Jan. 6 attacks to the Black Lives Matter movement. They specifically claim they see contradictory reactions to BLM and the Capitol rioters*by Democratic politicians and*supporters of Black Lives Matter.


    Ohio Congressman Jim Jordan, a staunch Trump ally, said Wednesday in defending the president against impeachment that Republicans were consistent and condemned all violence from anyone.

    “It’s all about politics,”*he claimed.

    The idea that Democrats did not criticize the violent elements of the BLM and social justice movement last summer is false.*

    They did condemn the violence. Here are just eight prominent examples:*

    1. President-elect Joe Biden on May 31 in a written piece on Medium sympathized with the mistreatment of people of color, writing that “protesting ... brutality is right and necessary. It’s an utterly American response.” But he added: “Burning down communities and needless destruction is not. Violence that endangers lives is not. Violence that guts and shutters businesses that serve the community is not.”*


    In June, former President Barack Obama wrote on Medium in support of the Black Lives Matter and social justice protests in the wake of the death of George Floyd. But he said: ‘Let’s not excuse violence, or rationalize it, or participate in it. If we want our criminal justice system, and American society at large, to operate on a higher ethical code, then we have to model that code ourselves.’


    2. In June, Rep. James Clyburn of South Carolina, the House majority whip, said violence was hijacking the social justice movement: “Peaceful protest is our game. Violence is their game. Purposeful protest is our game. This looting and rioting, that’s their game. We cannot allow ourselves to play their game.”

    3. In June, former President Barack Obama praised the BLM protests as they went nationwide, in a piece for Medium.*But he wrote: “Let’s not excuse violence, or rationalize it, or participate in it. If we want our criminal justice system, and American society at large, to operate on a higher ethical code, then we have to model that code ourselves.”

    The post is not perfectly organized, but everyone can see clearly how false the narrative created by the right, to distract from January 6, is.

    It's going to take much too long to make all the calls required to answer the OP's question..
    I'll wait for the next Progressive Liberals meeting and ask for a show of hands if that's OK.

    Oh Bob!

    Just concede that most democrats and most republicans denounce violence.

    Admit the premise of your OP is based on misleading (liar) information.

    And move the 'F' on.

    Silence is consent.
    The bottom line is that conservatives cant admit to themselves the Evil they have allowed to romp on their watch.

    This is going to hurt.
