DC Unrest Megathread

[Penn_Quaker_Girl]

CBS just ran a cell phone video from inside the chamber where loud pops can be heard echoing through the space.  

Good Lord....

[PSOL]

Democrats need to start organizing paramilitary organizations under their belt. It’s clear that the established security forces are biased enough to let a coup happen.

[The world will shine with light in our nightmare]

I thought riots were the language of the unheard?

They are. I may not support the person these rioters support, but they've created such an enthralling atmosphere that we owe them our thanks.

[Dereich]

These criminals need to be arrested and prosecuted to a man. It's not without precedent; I myself prosecuted several BLM protestors from May. Its only fair that these people be treated the same way.

wait are you a lawyer

I would kind of have to be to prosecute someone.

At very minimum this is trespass or armed trespass. In Florida this would qualify as a burglary, but I'm not sure it would under Federal law. Make them all felons.

[Roronoa D. Law]

I thought riots were the language of the unheard?

They are but this is not a riot. It's terrorism.

Pence needs to invoke the 25th now

[Person Man]

Ya'll need to chill.  A small group of crazy people are running around the capitol but there's no need to start shooting people, JFC.  Its not even comparable to this June when we had whole neighborhoods going up in flames.  The people who break the law should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.  That does NOT mean opening fire on them.

What did you say then?

[progressive85]

I can't believe all this crap is over one man - and an old pig at that.

[OSR stands with Israel]

Every single Trump supporter:

Fuzzy Bear, Sanchez, even sensible folks like Buzz.

This is your fault.  You are to blame.

No. He's right. How did people think this was gonna end?

Stop

They dont support these rioters so blaming them for something they dont support is ridiculous

This is a half million people jeopardizing the safety of our nation's leaders. Nothing has approached this since the Civil War.

What's worse?

Storming a Target
Storming Congress.

Pick one.

My question in all this: where is Trump?

Lol, not even close.

They are walking around the capitol armed and dangerous. Why not shoot them?

They supported Trump. Ergo, they supported this very likely thing happening. Any reasonable person could have forseen this.

[Diabolical Materialism]

When does the Left start arming bands of goons? Feels like we need to catch up.

If they burn the capitol to the ground, as well as the surrounding neighborhood, you may have a point.

Nobody has the right to disrupt the constitutionally-prescribed legal process. Such is a coup.

Donald Trump must go. He has egged people on to do this. As such he has made a mockery of our Constitutional government.

In the bunker.

Remember when Hillary called trump supporters “deplorable”? This is what she meant. We always knew this is how it would end.

No neighborhood was ever burned to the ground.

No

[Inmate Trump]

Trump has to be arrested over this.  There is no other way about it.  He directly instigated and encouraged this.
