Plenty of irony. But the fact is, I believe those I refer to will be hunkering down somewhere and defending positions, not taking to the streets and destroying businesses and neighbourhoods.
And I don't condone it, it's just an observation.
And I'm not from the US.
And you didn't answer my question. Who will be president Kamila Harris's vice president?

Still dodging the issue I see.
You're like the football fan who keeps arguing his team deserves a bowl because it has a larger fan base while completely ignoring that the same fans don't travel to said games and so REFUSE TO SHOW UP in a physical show of support for their team which is one factor bowl officials count on.
Why hold an inaugural parade if you can't count on your base to be there for it? It's bad optics.

Domestic terrorism is an interesting point. I think antifa and blm have been at the forefront of this recent wave.
Curiously enough, co-founder of BLM, Charles Wade was arrested in 2016 for child sex trafficking.
In other words, he was arrested for modern day SLAVE TRADING.
Is that irony lost on you?

For 24 years, the FBI, DHS and others have consistently stated that far right wing terrorism is the biggest domestic threat.
Riots are not terrorism, they're civil unrest. Totally different animal.
Terrorism is planned, rioting is spontaneous.

What do you call it when the rioting is planned? Asking for a friend.

So just wondering....if and when Kamala becomes President, who will be her/'their' choice for Vice president?
Joe Biden is expected to receive Secret Service protection with a new team that is more familiar to him and replacing some agents amid concerns that they may be politically allied with Donald Trump.
In a changing of the guard as well as the man to be guarded at the White House, Biden’s security detail will undergo some staffing changes, the Washington Post reported on Thursday.
Several “senior” Secret Service agents are poised to return to the president-elect’s protection team and Biden knows these agents well because they guarded him and his family during his time as vice-president, according to the article, echoed in a report by CNN, citing a law enforcement source.
“Agents say that, whether at the vice president’s residence or at his home in Delaware, Biden has a habit of swimming in his pool nude,” Kessler writes in the book – due for release Aug. 5.
“Female Secret Service agents find that offensive,” he writes.
“Biden likes to be revered as everyday Joe," an unnamed agent told Kessler. "But the reality is no agents want to go on his detail because Biden makes agents’ lives so tough.”
In addition to the alleged skinny-dipping, agents are reportedly irritated by frequent last-minute trips to Delaware.
A Biden spokeswoman would not address the claims on the record. A spokesperson for the Secret Service did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
