...perhaps the fact that riot is a rarely prosecuted crime in the US has less to do with political persecution than with the fact that Americans very rarely engage in rioting to begin with?

But, for the most part, and despite the whining of dumb kids playing anarchists, prosecutors, police, judges, and juries are not idiots and understand the intent of these laws. There is no grand plan to stop these fools from overthrowing the state with their masks and silly signs. There were just some people, who very clearly rioted, and who now will enjoy a well deserved sanction for their assholish behaviors.

A correct use of Police Power if there ever was one.
