"Are we allowed to riot yet?" is a question that teases the notion whether we should riot or not and I've never read any serious Democrat suggest such a thing. I responded based upon the title of the video, and just a couple of words added to that would have made things clearer.

If there's going to be a riot, it better be like 500,000 people showing up at Mar-A-Lago and trashing the joint AZJonnie Apr 27 #5

IIRC, people went to jail for that occurrence. yagotme Apr 27 #7

Hence the 500,000 people and Mar A Lago parts of the equation AZJonnie Apr 27 #13

Not Federal property, but private property, yagotme Apr 29 #17
