did those people burn down the wild life office?

Maybe he gaslights himself. 

So, let me see if I understand: 

The guy that fled and was shot, that's on him. The people that are trying to burn down buildings, that's on the Fed. 
Wildlife 27 was an example of how to handle a protest peacefully, even though a dude died. Arresting people for destruction of property is violent, even though no one has died.

This didn't start with people trying to burn down buildings. I'm saying that people could have made better choices, before it got to that point.
Another similarity between these two incidents, is that the city and county authorities were sympathetic to the protesters in both cases. I think that the right-wing County sheriffs out in rural Oregon set an example, that the mayor of Portland is following today. It's unfortunate, because when the local authorities do not cooperate with state and federal authorities, things get much more complicated.
