Armed "patriots" surrounded the Kentucky Governors mansion after a 2nd Amendment rally May 24th. This was after Bashear had been hung in effigy on the state Capitol grounds with a sign saying "sic semper tyrannis" around his neck. Basically a threat to assassinate the governor if he did not comply with their demands. But not a single one was arrested. However the governmor was intimidated enough that he is now having a huge fence built around the mansion.
Two weeks later unarmed peaceful protestors surround the Kentuck Attorney Generals house to protest the handling of the Brianna Taylor killing and 87 of them are arrested on felony charges.
Not saying I agree with the arrests, because I don't, but you know why those arrests were made and why the situations are different. Please tell the class.
