DC Court Admits That BLM Vandals Were Treated Better Than Pro-Life Protesters

• https://www.thegatewaypundit.com, By Mike LaChance

This is just one incident but it's symbolic of a much bigger issue, the two-tiered justice system that punishes anything and everyone conservative much more harshly than people on the left.

We have seen this unfold over and over again in recent years.

DC Court Admits What We Already Knew About BLM Vandals Versus Pro-Life Protesters

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit found the city "all but abandoned enforcement of the defacement ordinance" during the Black Lives Matter protests and riots in 2020 while going after pro-life protesters who used chalk outside an abortion clinic.

The Frederick Douglass Foundation and Students for Life of America filed the lawsuit against the city after two pro-life activists were arrested in 2020. The court agreed Washington, D.C. "selectively" enforced the anti-graffiti ordinance and found numerous examples of BLM vandals getting away with defacing property with anti-police messages:

The District all but abandoned enforcement of the defacement ordinance during the Black Lives Matter protests, creating a de facto categorical exemption for individuals who marked 'Black Lives Matter' messages on public and private property. The complaint offers a number of examples. The day after Mayor Bowser's street mural was revealed, protestors added an equal sign and 'Defund the Police,' so the message read 'Black Lives Matter = Defund the Police.'
