"Domestic Terrorists" were blamed for emulating the violent riots seen in many major US metropolitan areas during the summer of discontent when they stormed the Capitol building in Washington DC to protest the 2020 election results. 

US politicians and their counterparts around the world were vociferous in their condemnation of events that were eerily reminiscent of similar parliamentary invasions in Venezuela and the Ukraine that were often tacitly condoned by many of the same people.

Could it be that regime change is so much more distasteful when it happens in your own backyard? 

After all...when it's somewhere else we don't mind and they don't matter.

Anyway, we guess this latest outrage will presumably be blamed on Russian interference as so much else has been recently...and if not then why not? 

FNN remembers the classic Neil Young lyrics:

Gotta get down to it.
Soldiers are cutting us down.
Should have been done long ago.
What if you knew her and
Found her dead on the ground?
How can you run when you know?
