The problem isn't that leftists arent generally right that right wing politically motivated citizens who break laws should be punished for it appropriately. The problem is that they believe some pigs are more equal than others, and right wing motivated criminality should be prosecuted on a much, much, much, much steeper curve than left wing or nonpolitical criminality.
You mean the ones who waltzed in the completely open door and entered in the very much public hearing?

Not exactly the same is it.

And the ones who did disrupt the hearings once there were in fact arrested.

The better analogy, if that’s your point, is to compare to the BLM riots on the previous summer.
Well, I dont doubt some of them were arrested. I doubt any of them served a second of serious jail time. Arresting someone and then quietly dropping all the charges (which is what happens with a lot of left wing political terrorism/violence) is a lot different than what is going on with the (mostly peaceful) Jan 6th protestors getting the book thrown at them. But yeah, you could also make my point with the BLM riots, where we are seeing a lot of the same things. The bureaucracy that is the federal govt, especially the enforcement arms of it, taking sides and treating left and right wing criminality differently just seems like very bad business with a predictable bad outcome; yet here we are.
