I guess some here may be confusing her empathy and compassion for others
Empathy and compassion for who? The poor, oppressed looters and arsonists? Where's her empathy and compassion for the hundreds of business owners who lost their livelihoods? I guess having their businesses destroyed was a "touchstone moment" for them.
George Floyd, whose right to life and freedom to exist was taken away.
one was snuffed out in hours and the other went on for days. One was localized to government property, the other largely impacted citizens, small business, and big business.

How dare you disparage the name and memory of St. Floyd
Notice how the left wing press never interviewed the woman he was beating on that day and asked her what she thought of George Floyd. Wonder what junkie Floyds drug dealer thought of him.
What is really sick are the memes about Floyd ... showing him with a halo and angel wings. Disgusting. The man routinely beat up women. He was a violent drug addict. And years later we find out he probably died of a drug overdose and the cop kneeling on him probably had nothing to do with it.
There is ZERO excuse for the rioters criminal behavior. Arson. Looting. Intimidation. Billions of dollars in damage and lost property. They all should be locked up. Absolutely no excuse.
And to throw wide open the windows of a mansion so you can breath the smoke and revel in it? WEIRD.

Did not Donald Trump, the President at the time, just sit there and do nothing during the J6 demonstrations? Did he relish it?
He did not sit there with open windows breathing in the smoke of burning buildings and burning cars, wishing he was with the arsonists and looters, destroying public and private property and stealing that which didn't belong to him.
SHE IS WEIRD
EVERYBODY IS WEIRD in varying levels. Vance has now graduated to CREEPY WEIRD.

George Floyd ... a drug addicted man who routinely beat up women and who was in the process of being arrested for beating on a woman when he was dying of an overdose and may have had a cop kill him earlier by kneeling on his neck.
This is how authoritarian fascists rule, with a boot on the neck.
Sgt. Federico Ruiz, a 20-year veteran with the Capitol Police, suffered serious injuries to his neck, shoulder, knees and back. “I thought there was a strong chance I could die right there,” Ruiz wrote in a letter addressed to the judge. Ruiz said the injuries inflicted by Bonawitz prematurely ended his law-enforcement career.
Bonawitz placed one of the officers in a headlock and lifted her off the ground, choking her.

Are you saying that Ashli Babbitt was a domestic terrorist?
Ashli Babbitts first lawsuit hearing happened 3 days ago

Trespasser and a victim of circumstance but ultimately circumstances she helped create and escalate so again, a trespasser. I sympathize but can't condone her actions anymore than I sympathize with George Floyd and can't condone his. Both of them should have stayed home and they would be alive today. Also known as, FAFO.

Easy. A restricted government building that was first gained entry by a line of Proud Boys pushing against the police line, then Domenic Pezzola broke a window, climbed through, then opened the door allowing the crowd in. While other "Patriots" were also breaking doors and windows, and fighting cops to gain access.

CNN on X
MSNBC on X
The AP on X
Seriously what are you all going off about? You are making no logical sense and are simply just upset that X isn’t the echo chamber you want it to be. Elon doesn’t block people’s free speech and voicing their opinions. You are finding out that you are an extreme minority out of the vast majority of people when it comes to your morals/beliefs/convictions and you don’t like it. You thought you were right about things because before people were being censored/banned/deplatformed for having the opposing views to you guys. That’s not happening anymore and you are butthurt over it. It’s not just Trump that lives in your head rent free but Elon as well.

So you know it was her account actually verified? There's currently a "WalzWin" account that oddly has a Trump @name and is posting nonsense. If I post that here, should you just accept it? Because it's a "walzwin" account?

I guess for her it was the next best thing to not actually being able to be there to join in the demonstration.
So you think she wanted to join in on burning down the city, and in the looting, and in the intimidating of innocent people? Okay .... criminal longings .... again ... WEIRD
That's not her interpretation of it, that is your interpretation of it.
Demonstrations become riots depending on which side you are on, right? Remember J6, wasn't that a peaceful demonstration?

But I don’t remember leaders, or their spouses in charge of that area relishing in the moment.
Make no mistake, what happened in Minneapolis was disastrous. I’ve gone there several times since for business trips and the wound is still fresh.
If my city experienced the damage theirs did, I think I’d be furious that someone so close the the governor was acting like it was a good thing.
Did not Donald Trump, the President at the time, just sit there and do nothing during the J6 demonstrations? Did he relish it?

Here ya go froggy, this is the video of her being shot.
My point was that she was in a hallway (not fighting police like you said) surrounded by police who were ALLOWING all of this to happen. Only after she is shot dead do the officers respond to what is happening around them. Talk about dereliction of duty. It’s to Protect and Serve, not to Watch and Bystand.
