"I just think we need to make it clear that there's can be no comparison between the Black Lives Matter movement and what we saw on January 6th. There were very limited destruction of property and violence during the uprising, the Black Lives Matter uprising."
The View co-host Sunny Hostin claimed BLM protests involved only limited violence and property damage, contradicting documented evidence. Insurance industry estimates put BLM riot damage at over $1 billion nationally, with roughly 14,000 arrests, 2,000 police officers injured, and at least 25 deaths. This compares to January 6th's millions in damage, 1,400 arrests, and 140 officers injured. Hostin's revisionist narrative drew immediate criticism for whitewashing the extensive violence and destruction.
