If "an attack on our government" is bad, what about the leftists who
occupied the state Capitol in Madison, WI?

What about attempts to burn down the Federal Building in Portland?

What about bombing the US Capitol?

You only call it an "attack on democracy" because you hate Trump and
Trump supporters.

You don't mind similar things going on if they come from the left.

And rioting and burning is an "attack on democracy."

The obligation of government to protect life, liberty and property is
even more fundamental than democratic government.  Democracy is
something you can have if government does those things.
