Alan Dershowitz Joins Legal Team Defending January 6th Protestors: "I'm Defending Your Right to Express Your Views Under The First Amendment"

Alan Dershowitz: “He had a First Amendment right to protest the election and he was welcomed into the Capitol. The policemen are seen in the videotape welcoming him in. It’s not a crime to be welcomed into the crime after you’ve been waved in. He didn’t hurt anybody. He left when he was told to leave. And there’s been a case that’s been decided just last week which suggests that if those facts are true, there is no crime… … If they apply the same standards that they apply to protesters in the west– , Black Lives Matter, Antifa, and others who burned buildings, blocked access to the courts, and did real damage, none of these cases would be brought. And you can’t have a double standard. You can’t have one rule for the left and one rule for the right. One rule for Democrats and one rule for Republicans. The First Amendment doesn’t permit that.
