I understand why a Republican would want to down play what happened on 1/6. Good job. 2 Link to comment

Looks like you really don’t understand much once again. I’ve stated all who rioted at the Capital should be punished. At what point was our Democracy in question that day? When were you afraid we would under the control of those couple hundred people for the coming future? We’re you getting your Red Dawn face on in case you had to fight back against the rioters in those coming weeks? 2 Link to comment

I can't speak for others, but personally when an inflamed mob (some of whom were carrying assault rifles and zip ties and planted pipe bombs) broke into the U.S. Capitol by force in an attempt to circumvent regular government proceedings I was very concerned for the continuation of our government. Maybe not everyone who broke in that day was serious but generally I think we should react and be concerned by coup attempts, even if some of the people doing them were wearing funny hats! But you do you. 3 Link to comment

Many went there with the intent of capturing and killing some of the representatives who were actively partaking in our Democracy. And...to you, that's just ho hum.....I guess we can punish a few and forget about it. It's pretty telling. Great job supporting the party. 1 Link to comment

But you do you. Will do. I’m sorry a rag tag group of rioters in the year 2021 have you afraid they will overtake the country and it will no exist as we know it. Hmmmm, I hope Russia and China doesn’t figure out how easy it must be! 1 Link to comment

I clearly pointed out it was a riot which is quite a lot different than a threat to democracy and our country almost went under as many here suggest. At some point quite injecting your own words to what people post and respond to what is actually posted. 2 Link to comment

And it’s why I feel the 2nd amendment needs looked at. We all know deep down that any armed insurrection will be swiftly stomped by the US military and isn’t a real threat. Our govt won’t be brought down by force. I think when it finally does end it’s because people have lost faith in it and no longer admire the democratic processes. Link to comment

We obviously agree on very little, but I am in agreement here. It will be an unfortunate end if it comes to this though. 1 Link to comment
