Weird how they treat the heavily armed actual Nazis trying to carry out an actual coup with kid gloves

I can understand it. You can't go all out too early, since those people are crazy and they have lethal weapons. The police properly tries to hold them back as long as possible, so that there is no escalation, because if it gets ugly, it will get very ugly ...

why were they not better prepared for this? some flimsy metal barriers they use at football games in the parking lot is all they got set up?

Uhh.



I just had to evacuate my office because of a pipe bomb reported outside. Supporters of the President are trying to force their way into the Capitol and I can hear what sounds like multiple gunshots. (1/2)

I don't recognize our country today and the members of Congress who have supported this anarchy do not deserve to represent their fellow Americans.

Police have more concern for a random Starbucks than one of the most important buildings in the nation. It's also chilling hearing them whipped in a frenzy fully knowing a lot of those lunatics are armed.

This is not good. We need the national guard there immediately, and for Trump to immediately be detained among his supporters.

I guess it shows that if leftists want to get things done, maybe they should use the 2nd amendment in their favour and get armed.

This is the lesson to take from it. The reality is if the Police escalate this to violence blood will pour in the streets of Washington. The crazies may not be carrying their guns on them right now but you can bet your ass they are nearby and these nuts are looking for an excuse to use them

I enjoy their cries of pain and disappointment. May they never find peace again.

Hopefully no one gets hurt, though.

Where are the military? People are invading the White House and there is nobody on a loudhailer saying "Fuck off or get shot" ?

Now they're actively destroying federal property in the construction area. But of course it's ANTIFA who destroy things, never the good old racist white supremecists and crazy Trumpers. Also that probably isn't the safest area to gather a huge group of people under scaffolding..

I give it another 20 minutes before they burn it and it's a full on "mask off" Klan rally.

That's the Michigan state capital, also, not the Capitol Building in DC.

Posted in the other thread, but I'm like 99% sure this isn't actually in DC. Plenty of fucked up shit to go around, don't need to stir up stuff that ain't true :)

Time for judicious and expeditious use of the Sedition Act.

In one of the first tests of freedom of speech, the House passed the Sedition Act, permitting the deportation, fine, or imprisonment of anyone deemed a threat or publishing "false, scandalous, or malicious writing" against the government of the United States
