    You really think that that is what happened? LOL. I've rarely seen such a ridiculous statement here. So it was all a hoax to prevent Biden from talking to an empty pavement... okaaaaay...
    Unbelievable, what we see here, sometimes...

    Please let me know when was the last time left wing mobs invaded the Capitol, trying to find and hang the vice-president and lynch the speaker of the house, and trying to reverse the free will of the American people.

    I'm waiting...

    Waiting...

    Waiting...

    Oh, the last time the Capitol was attacked by a sizable mob (not counting 1 mentally ill person in 1998 and 4 Puerto Rican nationalists in 1954) was in... drum roll...
    1854!

    So, that was a leftist mob, right?

    Huh, no. Those were the Brits. And they didn't encounter much resistance because the building was... under construction.

    Waiting...

    Waiting...

    Care to give me any examples of leftist mobs attacking the Capitol?

    I was hoping you would provide the link since you posted several messages about "The Storm" that would result in the execution of several politicians today. But OK, let me find some, then.

    Took 2 seconds of a Google search:

    Oh, so only a single day at the Capitol counts, because the politicians are special angels that must be protected at all costs, right?

    All the private citizens that have been under siege by mobs of left wing crazies for the last year don't matter, because they're just the unwashed masses, and who cares about that rabble of filthy swine, right?

    Okay, I see how it is with you.

    I think you may be thinking of another member CF. I haven’t posted anything about any riots or protests recently.

    Again, complain to them or start your own thread to complain of what they did. This thread is about the right wing attack on the Capitol and their promise that they would try again today.

    I get it. You've got a very Hunger Games mindset. Screw the Districts, the Capitol must be protected, because that's where the beautiful and valuable people are. Only the Capitol is worthy of discussion and consideration.

    I see how it is with you.

    Assume what you want about me if it comforts you; I couldn't care less. But yes, I do think that trying to hang the Vice President of the United States and lynch the Speaker of the House of Representatives of the United States is pretty serious, not to forget, killing a Capitol Police officer. But that's just me; I understand that you don't see it as objectionable. In this, you are with a minority since 86% of Americans, according to polls, were horrified on 1/6/2021. I see that you prefer to address it with whataboutism.

    Typo in post #28: I should have typed 1814 not 1854.

    It's just weird that you'll damn the right for crimes that weren't even committed, while you ignore all of the billion plus dollars worth of real damage and the dozen of real lives that were taken across the country over the last year by rioting mobs of left wing lunatics.

    It's like you care more about theoretical violence and destruction that wasn't actually committed by right wing nuts, than the real actual damage left wing mobs did to real Americans.

    Is that they way you are? Because that's the way it looks like you are.

    Is speculative attempted right wing murder worse than real actual left wing murder for you?

    Buddy, I have always condemned the rioters, arsonists, and looters. I challenge you to find a single post in my posting history where I discounted or condoned their actions, any time it was being discussed here. You'll waste a few hours trying to find one, but let me help you out and save you some time: you won't find any because every single time I spoke about it, I condemned it, and said they needed to be arrested, prosecuted, and thrown in prison if convicted. So, you're trying to drag me to an off-topic issue, and you are trying to hijack my thread with whataboutism. Sorry, no can do. And what the hell are you talking about, that crimes weren't committed? There's been some 210 people indicted already. 5 people died. Go say to the prosecutors who charged numerous people with crimes, some of which with penalties of 20+ years, that no crimes were committed. Hey, if by any chance you're a lawyer, go offer your services to those idiots because they'll need lawyers; their Dear Leader did not pardon them. Now they are in big trouble. No crimes committed? LOL. Were you under a rock?? Have you just recovered from a coma??

    And you have also been taking a similar stand against the neo-fascist, black power and extreme left-wing nut jobs who have been engaged in insurrection and anarchy for the last two years? Are you anti those politicians, local, state and national, that aided and supported them? I hope you have been consistent.

    As a centrist, I've said multiply times here that I condemn all extremists, be them the right kind or the left kind. I've been entirely consistent on this. I've just minutes ago posted something about it in another thread. Every time I spoke about the riots, arson, and looting, it was to condemn these events and wish for all who committed these offenses to be indicted, prosecuted, and thrown in prison if convicted (after due process, of course). Even much milder extremisms than that, such as the legitimate exercise of the political ideas of the likes of Bernie Sanders and AOC, I've criticized in strong terms, over and over again.

    I see that you're another one of the posters here who think that anybody who is against Trump and against these far-right nut jobs must be the most horrible communist ever known to mankind.

    I’m curious - what would you say if they did cause riots and looting today? I assume you would call them “heroes”, as that would be the opposite of the label “cowards” that Qanon folks earned from you by staying home tonight. Or am I being wrong?

    That's what the government was telling you. You know the same people said there was collusion between Trump and Russia except when they were under oath...

    I was asking purely for clarification and glad you were condemning the violence and hopefully join in in demanding that once we arrest and prosecute those here we then turn that same fervor and commitment and work our way back through the "Summer of Love" and round up those anarchists'.

    Sorry, like I said, I'm not giving in to your attempt to hijack the thread with whataboutism. As of now I'll cease to reply to your attempts. Over and out.

    I support the prosecution of anybody who commits crimes, regardless of ideology. That's what a nation of laws should do. This includes former presidents.
    As of today, former president Donald Trump has lost presidential immunity. My message to prosecutors: "Stand back and stand by."

    You'd rather not discuss left wing riot mobs at all. Got it.

    I understand you perfectly.

    Kthnxbye.
