That politico article seemed like decent impartial journalism.  Sort of just explained reality without stoking outrage.

MOST OF THEM WERE JUST PEOPLE IN THE PEOPLE’S HOUSE. 

 

Most Capitol protesters won’t be jailed. Media angry. 

 

“34 years ago the Supreme Court ruled that burning the flag is not a crime. The people who defended that decision now contend that waving a flag is. . . . The problem is there was no insurrection. Yes, 5 people died. 4 were protesters, including an unarmed Ashli Babbitt whom a Capitol Police officer shot and killed. The officer was never publicly named.”

 

Imagine if Derek Chauvin’s name had been kept secret for months.

 

Plus: “While violent assaults in the Capitol are rare, protests and acts of civil disobedience — such as disrupting congressional hearings or even House and Senate floor sessions, are more common. That means prosecutors and judges will have to weigh how much more punishment a Trump supporter who invaded the Capitol during the Electoral College count deserves than, say, an anti-war protester chanting at a CIA confirmation hearing or a gun-control advocate shouting in the middle of the State of the Union address.”

 

 

Well, obviously more, because Trump supporter.

Failed coup=bad rating at Panera.  Got it.  We often talk about what's right and fair independent of the administration.  Don't let either media tell you rioting or insurrections are ok.  We DO need law and order.  It's possible to root for the blue, and understand BLM.  It's not possible to accept what either is doing violently, but kneeling isn't the same as kneeling on some other person's neck.  The irony of this is Trump's administration was gung ho to prosecute, and Biden's is gonna let em walk.  Deliver equal justice, that is all.

You make some excellent points.  But again the FBI did an exhaustive investigation with many eye witnesses and ballistics and forensics.  I have no idea why Brown did anything he did. Why walk in the middle of the street when you know the cops are looking for you cuz the store owner says he wad calling the cops?  But since I wasn't there I'm gonna go with the FBI report.

 

I only brought up Obama and Eric Holder cuz these weren't some cracker red necks trying to throw a black dude under the bus.  They ran an objective and thorough investigation IMHO.

Of topic, but should the capital police of fired on the crowd that attacked them? In your opinion

With non-lethal weapons yes.  If they were not prepared with bean bags, tear gas and other non-lethal means they were fools not to think something like this could have happened.

I agree Doc,

 

but i'm still trying to figure out why a Capitol guard shooting an unarmed woman is  "Off Topic" ?

 

So he said OF topic.  So he's cool.  I think Tibs is ESL so cut him some slack.

Yup, you want the capital to be undefended from these terrorists. Shows what you are for 

 

The barricade that the driver rammed has been there for years, it was not part of the new fencing, and certainly the National guard did not add to any safety.

 

But leave it to you Tiberius, to again use someone's death to try and justify your own vile bias.

 

You are a very poor example of a human being.

Just heard on Fox News - Chad Pergram - Congressional Correspondent:

 

"Had this street been closed, two weeks ago like it was, this incident would not have happened at this checkpoint"

So, keep all streets around the Capitol closed, even though they still have the barricades ?

 

You have less sense than Tibs.

 

Would it have happened at another checkpoint then ?

 

You don't know and neither do I.

 

If a deranged person wants to attack cops he will.  

 

When you politicize everything you give yourself away.

Oh you don’t like my responses because the truth hurts? Yup.

 

You are continuously on the wrong side of every issue.

 

There is nothing to argue about a fence protecting the Capitol. Your team stormed the Capitol on Jan 6 and ruined it for everyone.

The legal situation of the Jan 6th Capitol “insurrection” defendants

 

So far it seems that in the main they will be charged with trespassing:

 

“There is a natural cycle to an event like this,” the defense attorney added. “People will say it was the end of the world, then things will calm down, and they’ll begin looking at cases back on what people actually did.”

 

That’s no accident, of course. What’s left out of that statement is which “people” are saying what, and why. If the “event” is one that features leftists as the alleged perpetrators, the entire episode is trivialized and considered “mostly peaceful” even at the outset. But if it’s people on the right who stand accused, well that’s when the “end of the world” cries go out from the Democrats and their mouthpieces in the press.

 

That sets the narrative so that evidence that might later come out in a legal proceeding concerning what people actually did has already become irrelevant to the public. Even if no one or only a relatively few people end up being charged for their actions on January 6th, many Democrats will either say that proves that the legal system is biased in favor of the right and against the left, or they won’t even get the news at all. Either way, almost all will continue to think there was and still is a huge and dangerous insurrection afoot among people on the right, including all Trump supporters, and that just about anything is justified in order to stop it.

 

And prosecutors are facing pressure from judges to either back up their tough talk about sedition or put a lid on it. Michael Sherwin, the former lead Jan. 6 prosecutor, found himself rebuked by other senior prosecutors and Judge Amit Mehta last week for publicly flirting with the possibility of sedition charges when none had actually been leveled.

 

No matter what happens, I don’t think Biden or his spokespeople or any Democrat leader will ever admit this wasn’t an insurrection. Way too much is riding on that perception. They worked hard to plant that idea in the heads of the public, and it serves them in good stead. Why let facts get in the way?

New York Times: Boehner lays blame for 'that bloody insurrection' at Trump's feet

 

Former House Speaker John Boehner said former President Donald Trump "incited that bloody insurrection" at the US Capitol and blamed his false election claims for the GOP losing control of Congress, according to excerpts from his forthcoming book obtained by The New York Times.

 

Republicans have wobbled over whether to embrace the 45th President's legacy as an electoral strategy, and Boehner's scathing rebuke amounts to the latest plea by the former de facto head of the GOP to resist Trump's influence as it defines itself in the Biden era.


Trump's "refusal to accept the result of the election not only cost Republicans the Senate but led to mob violence," the former speaker writes in his forthcoming book, "On the House: A Washington Memoir,"
