January 6 redux

Quote: missedhervee

Dunno what you saw.

Give me a break.

Trump and his lackies incited his loyalists to storm the Capitol to prevent Biden from being confirmed.

They all knew that they were not welcome, it was not business as usual; barricades / fencing had been erected and security actively was in place.

It may be you are referring to having seen where a sympathizer or two working at the Capitol allowed them entry: they're traitors, and anyway it was painfully obvious that they were not supposed to enter.

Keep spinning, someday you might have a web, but I suspect you'll snare yourself in it.

If all these barriers and fencing were up then how did they enter?

Quote: RonC

The protesters were not invited in, unless it was done by people acting on their own and not in their official capacity.

They were trespassing and interrupting the activities of Congress.

hey, I think 99% of the activity of "protesting" is pretty dubious stuff just about in every case there is. These people this time aren't winning any 'citizens of the year award' nominations from me. And I'm not trying to say it was a peaceful protest in its entirety and there wasn't a riot. What was the sequence of events? The filtered news says barriers were put up, they were crashed, then people came in, continuing to riot. Maybe it went that way? How do we know? We know it is suspicious that the video footage of people acting peacefully inside doesn't fit the narrative and isn't shown in coverage on CNN, MSNBC etc., though they have this footage. Was it seized? Kind of odd to riot and then act peaceful later.

Why was there a need to "seal" the video that shows protesters entering?

good question.

Quote:

Just because it was fairly peaceful in some of the video, it still was fully illegal. So the video proves trespassing by everyone (other than officials on duty) in it.

we see about one second of peaceful activity even in this video. Just saying.

If you don't want conspiracy theories, don't hide things.

Again, there is no excuse for what happened...but there are questions about how they are investigating and prosecuting the affair.

I see no reason to excuse what I would call a misdemeanor by an unknown percentage. I do not excuse them, though it sounds like it. Another unknown percentage rioted and it was very serious.

My point is more to this point of yours, "there are questions about how they are investigating and prosecuting the affair"

I've never seen how they entered, though I suspect that video exists

They knocked them down.

I watched them do it on TV.

What did YOU watch that day?

What an unbelievable comment.

What, you didn't watch the image of the cop getting crushed, or that stupid bitch getting blown away by security for trying to climb in?

Like the truth it is out there, but you guys need to open your eyes and remove your blinders to see it.

Hey, think of it this way: you guys know not to climb the fence of the White House, dontcha?

What happens if you try?

Bingo, you get arrested and if you are aggressive you get blown away.

Sure, you can enter during designated times, with advance permission: just like the Capitol.

Why should the rules of entry for the Capitol be treated differently just because a narcissistic jerkoff is miffed because he got his ass handed to him?

No matter how many normal customers were in the bank at the time of a bank robbery, you still call it a bank robbery if a bank robbery is going on.

It isn't less of a bank robbery.

I just listened on the radio to most of Biden's speech yesterday, where he frankly took Trump to the woodshed for Jan. 6th.

Excellent speech and he delivered it effectively: he did not seem brain-addled or confused at all.

Bravo Joe, tell it like it is.

But as we all know you can always tell a Trumpie but you can't tell him much.

Trump is gone almost a year but living in Biden, your. and every other liberal's head rent free still.

What did he say, "I stole an election and Trump got upset over it?"

Now we see he cannot do SOTU until March 1 because he has things so jacked up. His approval might be in the 20s by then.

What an unbelievable comment ...

Dude, you got lost in your own ranting. The matter, as I understood it anyway, was if I had seen how the peaceful types entered. Oh, I forgot, you think I made that up about some of them, most of them I suspect but am not being told, were just walking around gawking at the statues, totally calm

AZD, you can try to deflect but the reality is Jan. 6th is the rotting, stinking albatross that will forever be hung over the neck of Herr Trump.

He'll probably still be festooned with it when he floats down the river Styx.
