    She wasn't the only one there... just the first (and last) to try and get through the broken door... It's was a bottleneck, possibly by design, and the first one through paid the price, as often happens...

    Every single topic on this forum is an avoidable argument. ;-)

    Take it up with a liberal, particularly one who has done that. Meanwhile, you are the one doing it now. If you dislike "the liberal way" so much, then why have you adopted it?

    We went through a year of violent riots, looting, arson, assaults and murders just so the left can get free TV sets and justify it by saying cops should use less than lethal force. So where were the billy clubs, bean bags, rubber billets, pepper spray, tear gas, de escalators and councilors?

    Really? The average person who is relatively well balanced doesn't commit suicide because something went horribly wrong one day. While there is PTSD that drives some military veterans to chose that exit, there is no comparison between the two.

    Not an effective argument. You really need to be more specific.

    I'm not sure where to start other than to tell you again that you don't know what you're talking about.

    I can do without your judgments about the sanity of the police officers who confronted the MAGA horde on Capitol Hill.

    Judgment that is heavily tainted by political positions and therefore, has no value.

    2021 National Veteran Suicide Prevention Annual Report (va.gov)

    Military personnel are under a great deal more stress on a daily basis then then Capitol Police. Perhaps because the Capitol Police haven't had to actually deal with events or warfare, they have no ability to process it. That doesn't mean the event is at fault, as some try to paint it as.

    I've said it before, but to clarify, the whole mess didn't have to happen except some people are idiots. There will always be idiots, and people who accept positions where idiots flock, need to adjust to that fact.

    I know more than I ever wanted to know about people who have considered, and some who have committed suicide. No comment was made about their sanity - one can be depressed without being insane. Attempting to dismiss other people based on what you believe is not good form for any type of discussion.

    Since you don't know my political position, other than it doesn't mirror your own, you really shouldn't be making statements about judgements.

    If capitol police have less ability to process violent conflict than the military, then why wouldn't you consider that the riot likely was a factor in the 4 suicides, especially given the statistical evidence which very clearly points towards that conclusion?

    You’d better be more careful about what you say.

    You started by saying, “The left on this board literally cheered” her death. That was a reference to a group. It implied the entire group.
    If you are now saying you were not referring to the entire group, you owe “the left” an apology.
    Let’s see if you have the courage to give it.

    Also noted that you have changed your tune from “literally cheering” to other, milder accusations.

    have to agree, were they left\right, were they embarrassed that the people they supported did this, did they have relationship issues, it's really hard to tell without more information

    The only active Trumpian cult out there is the left. They can't spend a day without him. The only reason the left lives for Trump every hour of every day is they can't find anything to post about Biden. lol
    OMG Trump said (X) today!!!!!!!!! Its another constitutional crisis!!!!!!!! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!!!!!!

    Ex-presidents traditionally leave the spotlight to a large degree, and let the new administration get on with things. If Trump did the same, I think you'd find that rather quickly he'd be mentioned much less. But I'd put the chances of that happening at about zero.

    Trump's goal is to start a civil war if he doesn't win in 2024.

    And if he wins, he will become the American Putin.

    He is the greatest peril this nation has seen since 1861.

    Warning the country about this man is a patriotic duty.

    How low can he go?? Just watch him. There is no limit. That is the prob elm with a sociopathic narcissistic personality disorder.

    ( unfortunately) There are a lot of books being Whittier about him......... and soon more ot them will deal with his personality and psychology.

    (but then a LOT of books have been written about Hitler ......... and he was bipolar.......with delusions about the Jews........which were his targets once he got into a powerful position.


    Trump's delusion is about how wonderful & exceptional he is (narcissistic) and out of touch with reality.

    It has already done a lot of damage and has many years to go.

    His age will not stop him. If he becomes POTUS again in 2024, democracy in the US will be over.

    He will find a way to stay in power indefinitely.

    The MAGA will be his tools as they are today, they will make Trump an autocrat so he can protect the country from the liberal communists.
