I'm saying the insurrectionists were armed, as well as the idiot protestors outside of many State Capitol buildings, and so the cops are a lot more apprehensive about harassing or confronting them than they were towards BLM protestors. There was a lot more at play on January 6th than just being armed though, including ideological alignment, and support from high level politicians.

Ah, I misinterpreted not only who you were saying was armed, but also your implied result.

I agree, but that just makes police look even worse than if it were mere bigotry and bias.
