After all, the numerous Black Lives Matter protests last summer saw an onslaught of police force and violence. Even when they were peaceful demonstrations, law enforcement deployed tear gas and rubber bullets, bruised faces and bodies and even shoved an elderly man to the ground.<\/p>\n<p>But as the mostly white Trump supporters marched to the Capitol and broke into the building, law enforcement was notably absent. While the National Guard eventually did show up, many people believe the response time and amount of force paled in comparison to what the BLM protests saw last year.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Riot police arrive after Trump supporters storm the US Capitol | AFP\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cYGq1VAk9wk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Bay Area Hip Hop vet Paris, who has built a career addressing racism, police brutality and other socio-political issues, admires Yachty for weighing in but knows that\u2019s just a small part of it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat he said is true and it\u2019s cool that Lil Yachty has formed a political opinion and is speaking on something other than the usual topics in Hip Hop,\u201d he told HipHopDX. \u201cIt\u2019s easy to blast younger generations for not speaking out, so I <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>laud him.

When asked what\u2019s going through his mind as he watches the madness unfurl on the news, the <em>Safe Space Invader<\/em> MC replied, \u201cNot a goddamned thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cIt will be back to business as usual in America soon enough. Back to war for profit, back to zero police reform, unresolved income inequality, political divisions and rampant racism, among other things.
