Stop Calling Jan. 6 an ‘Insurrection’
That’s a legal term that denotes much more than a sporadically violent riot or disturbance.

The events of Jan. 6, 2021, are misunderstood, and the failure to correct the record could be damaging to both America’s future and its justice system. Words have to have meaning, and the continuous mislabeling of the U.S. Capitol breach as an “insurrection” is an example of how a false narrative can gain currency and cause dangerous injustice.
*****
Riot or attack are better terms for Jan6. The BLM riots were worse. LEFT-rated voices and media outlets generally believe that it was an insurrection and use the words insurrection to describe the event.
But, why wasn’t anyone arrested for the BLM riots?
