What's really interesting in the Capitol attack is how the terrorists ended up simply surveilling themselves, posting their videos and pictures onto their own social media with their own identifying information attached. You don't need a police state when the enemy is this stupid.

Since when is a shut-in an act of terrorism? As far as I'm aware these protesters at the Capitol didn't kill or attempt to kill anyone. Yes, they damaged government property. Many will face prosecution for this.

Supporters of BLM have committed far worse acts in recent years but they are not labelled as terrorists. The only people that died at this event were the protestors - one at least was unarmed and murdered by a police officer. The whole thing is on video.

We need to crack down on performative speech. Alex Jones and Tucker Carlson shouldn't be able to hide behind the legal arguments that their words aren't meant to be taken seriously because they are performative.

Carlson cuts right to the truth. I can see why many on the left dislike him.

Of all the pictures and videos from inside the Capitol, has anyone seen any trespassers/protestors/rioters/insurrectionists carrying weapons? I caught some of it live and have been looking since and haven't seen any.

Pictures or video would be appreciated.

No but I did see an unarmed protestor get shot in the face by a police officer

And yet we still have idiots here in the UK saying things ranging from:

* coronavirus is invented as a government power grab

* the government locking down is a deliberate ploy to kill small businesses

* the government should just let this run its course, it’s Just A Flu TM

* hospitals are actually empty (the “proof” being people recording empty waiting rooms in outpatient departments on bank holiday weekends)

* coronavirus doesn’t exist (!)

Maybe this will be a bit of a wakeup call.

NHS is overwhelmed every winter if the hyperbolic headlines are to be believed
