Trump's pathological sense of pride makes every bad thing he's ever done something to brag about when he's not lying about having done it in the first place.

for the horribly and unfairly treated January 6th hostages

Brian Sicknick or the other LEO's that lost their lives in the aftermath of the insurrection were not available for comment.

We all saw his filth attacking the capitol police, smashing windows and beating police with flags and poles. We all saw Elise Stefanik cowering in fear from the magat insurrection. The painting of this as a "protest that went bad" is just a pathological attempt to whitewash history...they had f*****g shirts that said 1/6/21 - Civil War on. This was a premeditated attack on our democracy in an attempt to steal the votes of 81,000,000 Americans.

To call these criminal felons anything other than what they are is a disgusting act that mocks the brave police that fought to defend the Capitol and the lawmakers just trying to do their job.

Anyone that calls them hostages are a piece of vile ----. Period.

They are --------- criminals and deserve the prison sentences they got.

The ------- orange menace deserves to be in a cell next to them.

I've said it before and it hardly needs repeating..........those guys were so incredibly lucky our security was unwilling to take the APPROPRIATE action that day.

Which was to shoot any of them who breached beyond the doors. They were allowed to walk in and walk out and then later be peacefully arrested and prosecuted.

They should have been shot. Each of them until they stopped coming in.

#3 You don't think the literal bloodbath you're calling for,
would have been used by Trump to declare Martial Law,
or do you just not care.

What you call a bloodbath I call defending the US Capitol.

Of course it would have been.

Which likely played a role in the restraint eberly is referring to.

Doesn't mean that his post is incorrect or that your strawman isn't off the mark.

So, it WAS just a prank that got out of control? OR was it an insurrection?

Should it have been stopped or not?

I'm not advocating for any unnecessary violence.

Whatever needed to be done to stop it. That's my point.

If you disagree then you're glad J6 happened.

"OR was it an insurrection?"

It's only a question if you're ignoring the other half-dozen ways Trump was trying to overthrow the election.

Add them all together, and the answer is so clear...a caveman could do it.

I'm referring to the moment and the restraint that allowed those guys to do what they did.

I'm not attacking anybody for what happened or didn't happen.

I'm monday morning quarterbacking....

Donald Trump is all about prison abolition for white people.

In fact, prison abolition for white people is a cornerstone of his campaign.

Prank with gallows

Prank with pipe bombs

Prank with bear spray

Prank with beating cops

Wonder why normal people think you're a ------- clown?

When Fanone was being pulled into the mob to be beaten and tased nearly to death, to permanently suffer PTSD and have to retire due to his injuries, he should have fired all 52 rounds on his person. Recall that the completely justifiable shooting of Ashley Traitor Babbit completely stopped the MAGAt scum from trying to break through the doors into the Speaker's lobby. If Fanone had killed 20-25 of Dotard's unwashed, that would have probably ended it. Mob violence catches like Dotard's Covid. The mob mindset makes people forget the consequences of their individual actions. You stack a few bodies, and you bring clarity of thought to the rest of the MAGAt scum. Most of those who were caught up in the mob who previously did not intend to commit violence would leave. That would have left the Capitol Police vs the hard-core MAGAt scum, which would have been advantage cops.

Yes.

I knew we'd get a few right wingers here calling for prison abolition.

For white people.

Just like daddy Trump.

I love that he and many other droolers are calling people convicted of crimes "hostages", and demanding a release of "the hostages."

It only applies to white people, but it's a start.

Once a person buh-lieves the Big Lie, all the other little lies become easy.

Sure they are, "hostages"... because the Election was Rigged!

This is a kind of mass hysteria, and perhaps even mass hypnosis, that Cults are famous for.

everyone who was there just needs to identify as "undocumented visitors" and the ---- probing leftist will have

to let them go.**

Sure, #21.

I think you should prove this.

Simply go into Mexico, destroy all of your identifying documents, turn around and walk right back through "Biden's wide open border."

You won't encounter anyone because all of the border agents were fired on day one of his administration, but if anyone says anything to you make sure you tell them that you don't speak English.

The only thing you'll have to do after that is collect your free house and pony and all that.

I agree with Eberly. And it could have been done without a "bloodbath".

Just Ashli Babbitt a couple of the worst of them after they forced their way into the building, and the crowd likely would have dispersed.
