Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street and building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the party is always right.

Joe Biden Says BLM Would Have Been 'Treated Very Differently' Than Capitol Rioters

Absolutely, both the police treatment of the rioters and the rioters treatment of the statues inside the Capitol were very different



Trump supporters rioting over the president's election loss to Biden were met with relatively mild resistance from law enforcement when breaching the Capitol building. Many in the largely white mob were allowed to simply leave the area after taking part in the violent insurrection. Biden said "we all know" that law enforcement would have taken a different tact with protesters supporting the movement for racial justice.

"Not only did we see the failure to protect one of the three branches of our government, we also saw a clear failure to carry out equal justice", Biden said from Wilmington, Delaware.

President-elect Joe Biden said Thursday that police would have treated Black Lives Matter protesters "very differently" than the violent mob of supporters of President Donald Trump who stormed the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday.

"No one can tell me that if it had been a group of Black Lives Matter protesting yesterday, they wouldn't have been treated very differently than the mob of thugs that stormed the Capitol", he added. "We all know that's true. And it is unacceptable. Totally unacceptable. The American people saw it in plain view".
