    So Hillary Clinton snuck into the capitol, opened a secret door, gave tours to innocent Trump supporters, then dressed up as the very same people she just gave tours to and fought with other police and vandalized things.

    2 heart attacks/strokes, 1 drug overdose and a murder. The murder was the only death that was the result of violence, and it was committed by a capitol police officer against a trumper. 3 of the 4 people who died were trumpers. The 1 other died of a stroke an entire day later. That was the police officer.
    according to who? Will there be attempted murder charges filed?
    All punishable crimes, punish accordingly.
    absolutely, we all know how the narrative works.
    Yes, because Trump is so loved by the establishment and they are willing to pull strings for him. He has so much more sway than any establishment politician, right. Not sure who you think is protecting him. He was a target from the start.

    Several officers were injured. Officer Brian Sicknick died of a stroke after being bludgeoned with a fire extinguisher at the capitol by Trump supporters who were attacking not just him, but all the guards to get in. That's murder

    Yes, there were many many crimes committed that day. They should all be punished accordingly.

    There are videos of Trump supporters setting up the gallows, chanting hang Mike Pence, and searching for him so they can hang him.

    We know how spin works too

    Trump is the face of the Republican party now. He has more and more cronies in the Senate and House, in Governor's mansions, etc. Every non Trump supporting Republican is being ridiculed and replaced.

    Stop with the bullshit

    Right. And those responsible for planning, coordinating, and/or partaking in this attack should be held accountable.

    Anybody who tried to break in or initiated physical confrontation with the police or staff should spend time in jail.

    This isn’t what happened. You should do research before accusing people of murder, it’s kind of a heavy accusation. There was no indication he died from anything related to the capitol. He died of natural causes a day later. You’re wording to sound like he was beaten to death with a fire extinguisher. Not what happened. What about the unarmed woman who was shot dead through a locked door? Your heart doesn’t bleed for her? Another death at the hands of a trigger happy policeman?

    I’m confused as to what exactly you want to happen to all these people who showed up to DC that day. We seem to agree people who committed crimes should be punished, and they are. Do they need to be hung for treason as well? Get to the point.

    Pretty much what I said. The gray area seems to be the definition of “held accountable”. Some say trespassing, others say treason. Wide gap there.

    Taking part in an assault on the capital intended to overturn the results of a national election is not simply trespassing... Having a person on the inside who helps the mob gain access shouldn't lessen the severity of the charges.

    The mob was a part of the plot and anybody who didn't stop at the original fence line should be charged with a felony and serve jail time.

    Anybody involved should have their lives impacted drastically.

    Yeah the ME said natural causes. Its not a coincidence that he underwent a great level of stress defending the capitol then collapsed and died of a stroke. Cause and effect. Maybe calling it murder was extreme on my part, but those people caused his death.

    That unarmed woman was a part of a group that were trying to get to the Senate floor to attack senators. She was warned, many times. She had to have known the consequences of breaking into a federal building and going after senators. Its terrible she died. She brought it on herself.

    No, I don't want them to be hanged. I have already said those involved need to go to prison. What happened on the 6th can never happen again.

    You want to try and make those who participated seem like innocent people who were merely protesting. That's bullshit and you know it. If it had been the left, you wouldn't be singing the same tune.

    I don’t. I’m just trying to navigate the gray area. I do think the left media is blowing it up too much, absolutely. But I’m also completely willing to admit it wasn’t an innocent protest. It got out of hand. I’m willing to call a riot a riot, unlike some of the media on the left. If there was an organized plot I’d like to know more about it. Seems like alot of dipshits caught mob fever while the doors to the castle simultaneously opened up, and chaos ensued. Doesn’t negate any crimes committed, but it doesn’t exactly scream organized government takeover either. The cops were casually standing on the senate floor with the trespassers more or less waiting for them to get bored and leave, which they eventually did (after stealing shit and fucking shit up). Punish accordingly.

    Who is this Keith Swank character and what is evidence for his statement?

    A far right candidate running for Congress in Washington State. I have yet to see corroborating evidence on his claim.

    He's referring to an argument made by an oath-keeper attorney. After 8 days I've seen nothing else come of it. But I guess Hailblazers thinks that means the rioters had a guided tour.

    Rioters stormed the capital, injured police offers, searched for members of congress with zip-ties and weapons for the purpose of demanding that Pence and Congress reject the results of a democratic election. How exactly do you blow that up too much? I can only imagine how upset you'd be if democrats were responsible.

    Which is why I no longer interact with any poster here who minimalizes what happened and tries to brush it away or defend it. They can post all they want, and they will get no interaction from me, as if they don't exist. Not worth talking with or debating with.

    By claiming it was a carefully organized conspiracy to overthrow the government. Or by saying it was as bad as 9/11 and Pearl Harbor.
    Lefties rioted all that previous summer in countless cities, caused more deaths, more injuries and more damage, including to federal buildings (oh the humanity) to a degree that’s immeasurable. They literally set a federal building on fire with people inside. Democrats passed all of this off as protesting in the name of social justice and wouldn’t even utter the word “riot”. The media all but encouraged it. People on here downplay it and pull the “capitol building” card when it’s compared to January 6th, as if these buildings suddenly became sacred to them when dipshits were rioting in the name of Trump.
