Entering a building is not destruction of property. Breaking a window is not entering a building. Breaking a window is destruction of property.
Destruction of property is a crime of violence under US law. The video clearly shows Dominic Pezzola committing a violent crime under US law. You were shown a video of him committing that violent crime and pretend his act was not violent.
Spraying police officers with a fire extinguisher is assault. Assault is a violent crime under US law. Nicholas Brockhoff was convicted of using a dangerous weapon while assaulting police officers. You have been shown a video of Nicholas Brockhoff spraying a fire extinguisher at police who had to retreat from it and you pretend his crime was not assault.
You failed to address the violent attack in the video I reposted a link to.
You have clearly moved the goal posts.
Your original post -
You use the word violence 4 times. There is nothing in your statement that restricts the meaning of violence to anything other than its general meaning which under US law includes destruction of property or any assault.
When presented with a video of someone breaking a window, you first moved the goalposts here.
People can take notice that you are claiming the legal definition of violence is being stretched. Yet when we look at the actual law, it is you that is attempting to twist and stretch the legal definition to not mean what it says.

The term “crime of violence” means—
(a) an offense that has as an element the use, attempted use, or threatened use of physical force against the person or property of another, or ...
Based on the actual law, no one on the left is stretching the law to include destruction of property in the definition of violence. That definition has existed in the law since 1984.
Since the meaning in the law is that destruction of property is a crime of violence maybe you should take these words to heart.
