I’m not denying that there are white supremacists in the police force and certainly not that there’s severe racial bias in policing, I’m just suggesting that the causal factors here were much more specific than general racial attitudes.
Let “you and your colleagues incited a cop-killer riot” be the only response ever again to those who lecture about “back the blue”.
I’m not really that big on OMG TREASON! - OMG SEDITION! - I mean you can make a pretty good argument that Chelsea Manning committed treason. Fuck that. The omg part is that these people, including Trump, are white supremacists/nationalists/fascists.
You can be damn sure I don’t feel the same way about someone who tries to break into government property to stop caging children as I do about someone who does it to try to cage more children.
I’ll take Trump in prison, but the real charge should be crimes against humanity.
I feel bad for them because they were obviously in fear of their life and unlike some of these roided maga cops, likely didn’t want to take a life. For normal fucking people that shit is mentally scarring.
gg to everyone who was in whatever facebook group the murderer was in, felony murder for everyone.
That’s just a whisk prosthetic. He was gonna whip some eggs for the guys after a fun day of insurrecting.
Only an Antifa member would use a fire extinguisher to beat a cop. Real heroes like Kyle Rittenhouse use them to put out fires.
Cliffs:
I never told them to do that! Not me!
Never acknowledges them as his supporters
Doesn’t say Joe Biden’s name, just “the next administration”
“We’re just getting started”
I’m mostly with you but I have zero problem charging literally everyone who entered the capitol with sedition. Let them plead out to two years in federal prison. Need to make an example of these people to deter this in the future.
The poker analogy is that McConnell is an elite angle shooter and Trump is an outright cheater.
The authorities won’t be, but if they were even 25% as harsh as they were on Ferguson protestors, maga fb groups would have a lot less content soon.
I would rather some more of them got shot than go to prison for sedition.
Its not a coup attempt though…
January 20 is just around the corner.
It’s not too late to change that!
