To be clear, the “protesters” at the Capitol were hitting and bashing the police, with zero instigation from the police, and no retaliatory violence against them (except for that lady that got shot climbing through a barricaded window).

The protesters (and media!) in LA are being shot at and trampled by cops after zero instigation from them.

fun fact:
the cops don’t shoot at protesters when they’re armed

If Jan 6th had the same number of violent protesters as LA has, it would've barely been newsworthy.

A not-well-known aspect of that line in the movie is that Mongo Santamaría was a Cuban born drummer and bandleader popular in the 60 and 70s.
