Many were beaten by Trump supporters on 1/6 which is why Trump supporters desperately want to avoid an inquiry into it. The BLM demonstrations (which had nothing to do with the small-scale Antifa riots by people mostly violently hostile toward the Democratic Party) were overwhelmingly peaceful, but when you have tens of millions of people demonstrating in hundreds of cities and towns day after day for months, you are bound to have e some violence on the periphery, especially when the leadership trying to provide an alternative for resisting the systemic violence of the state is stifled by police repression. The Democrats did precious little to encourage any BLM demonstrations either … at best they paid lip service to the tremendous groundswell for justice.
