I miss the days when ... it was a-okay to storm the Capital Building with the intent to shut down the lawful proceedings and strike fear in the hearts of the authorities. ![](https://threadshots.threadreaderapp.com/1047935356673437697.jpg) Bravo for bringing politics into a thread that was made specifically to get away from politics.

If that was the case, I guess there OP shouldn't have mentioned Nancy Pelosi or the storming of the CB in his 2nd post. But hey, continue to ignore the "domestic terrorists" who were planning to force their way into the Capital Building and shut down the government over lies perpetrated by the Democrats.

Interesting that no one talked about the lack of masks at the Capitol yesterday. I actually noticed that, but, I thought it had already been discussed here... I guess that it wasn't? Perhaps too many people were making stupid jokes about these domestic terrorists, or making excuses for these criminal acts... instead of realizing how serious all this was? But, most people are now scumbags, and humanity is going down the toilet. So much for Utopia. It's a shame that humans were better people just a couple of decades ago, and our golden age is behind us... But as long as we have all good laugh, who cares if we destroy ourselves, right? I think I go stand in front of an oncoming train... You can all have a good laugh, and I'll be put out of my misery.

Take this bullshit to the thread dedicated to politics.

If we're gonna continue to bring up incendiary remarks from 4 years ago that divide a country, we might as well present both sides.

Telling people to fight the terrible policies that were inevitably going to come from the Trump administration? If that's your example, great.

It's not very uniting, which is what I believe Democrats like to praddle on about. And if you think Democrats don't have anything to do with the current climate in our country, then you're a bigger fool than I ever could have guessed.

And if you think Democrats don't have anything to do with the current climate in our country, then you're a bigger fool than I ever could have guessed. That's fine. I've already said both parties have serious issues. We need more political parties, there's no question about it. Only one party produced Trump. Only one party had its leader, the sitting president, tell citizens to subvert democracy after they lost a presidential election. You guys keep comparing this to BLM. I've already explained the differences multiple times, but I'll reiterate a key feature: All summer long you all complained about the riots and the 'radical leftist threat' and supported police. It was radical right wingers who stormed the capitol and KILLED A POLICE OFFICER. So much for the party of law and order. You don't get to go back and make these dopey comparisons now. You already complained about this stuff; the difference was the right supposedly didn't do this kind of thing. You're going to need a new argument. I'm just going to sit in the middle, shaking my head at the extremists on both sides, and pointing out the hypocrisy that is endlessly spouted on this board by conservatives.

If you’re too chicken-shit to address these things, pretending they never happened isn’t the solution, cupcake. As to your claim that Trump supporters threatened civil war back in 2016, I did find a YouTube video of a Trump supporter (singular) who expressed that sentiment. Big freakin’ whoop. It’s not like it’s Nancy Pelosi talking up “insurrection” against Trump because of his immigration policy. Yeah, that happened also, Ace. insurrection (n) - the violent uprising against an authority or government. The Democrats really need to look in a mirror before they bitch about Trump, and you need to get your head out of your ass the sand.

You're the one that keeps bringing up Trump's incendiary comments without mentioning the same rhetoric from the other side. And when I notice you doing that, I'll keep responding in kind.

I miss the days when I could celebrate my birthday in peace, without being reminded of a major riot that occurred at our nation's capital... Thanks a lot, shithead Trump.
Does anyone else here, have to share celebrating 'holidays' with national 'disaster' remembrances?

Telling people to resist Trump's psychotic tendencies is preferable to the president telling people to march on the capitol and "take back the country," because he lost an election. Stop equating the destruction of a Wendy's to an assault on the capitol while congress was in session! It's insane. And again, zero politicians told protests groups to burn down businesses; THE PRESIDENT told his supporters to subvert democracy for his own gain. For the millionth time, rioting by either side is unacceptable; but the difference is one side was protesting civil injustice which included police murdering people in the street; while the other side attacked the capitol because their guy lost an election. There is simply no comparison from a moral standpoint. None.

How many buildings were destroyed the other day in Washington? How many small businesses were looted? How many injuries and deaths occurred the other day compared to what happened during the summer? And more importantly, are you gonna honestly answer any of these questions? Both sides are fucked up, Ray. Get a friggin clue, will you?

The Democrats really need to look in a mirror before they bitch about Trump, and you need to get your head out of your ass the sand. That plan never came to fruition, cupcake/ace/sport/champ. Just like the civil war threatened by Trump supporters didn't happen. Look farther than youtube clips, that probably explains your cluelessness on every topic. They've been insane and threatening to our democracy from the beginning. That took 30 seconds of searching by the way, get your head out of your ass and off of youtube, start reading real news and maybe you'll learn something. Do you think the group of soccer moms that planned on carrying this out would've killed a capitol police officer like this Trump mob did? I highly doubt it, but either way it doesn't matter because it didn't fucking happen. Do you understand that it didn't happen? That there was no occupation? Windows were not kicked in, capitol police officers were not killed that day. Unlike Wednesday. Should I make up some imaginary statistics about the Trump civil war that never happened in 2016? I can't believe how dense you are. Great, that idiot Pelosi 'talked up' insurrection. Did a group of 'libs' storm the capitol, kill a police officer and put the entire country at risk? No? Get back to me when they do that, ok? Not talk about doing it, actually do it. When a liberal group takes the capitol by force and starts killing people, you'll have an argument. Base your argument on something that actually fucking happened next time. We don't all live in a FoxNews induced dream world, cupcake. And again, this is all shit you've been complaining about for years. The point was that the right weren't the crazy ones. That was never true, but it's inarguable now. The best argument you can possibly make is, "Hey, the right wing kooks are as crazy as the extreme left." We already knew that, congratulations. I have to ask. Do you think the Bowling Green Massacre happened?

And more importantly, are you gonna honestly answer any of these questions? Both sides are fucked up, Ray. Get a friggin clue, will you? I explained this in detail already, multiple times. Let me ask you this. Though it was hard to tell the other day-- generally speaking, which has more security? A Wendy's, a mom and pop coffee shop or the US Capitol? Why do you suppose that is? The US Capitol is the center of our system of government! Burn down a Wendy's, they rebuild. Somebody walks into the Capitol while congress is in session with a bomb, surveillance equipment or a fucking thumb drive with a computer virus. Do you see what was at stake here? Terrorists don't care about Wendy's, they now have ideas about what it takes to circumvent security at the highest of high value targets: a MAGA hat and an American flag. Then you can walk right in! We don't know the ramifications of this from a security standpoint. We may never know what was compromised. It isn't about damage in dollars or lasting images of stuff on fire; it's much bigger than that. Thank you, this is all I wanted to hear. It's what I've been saying from the beginning. There's no defense for Wednesday's terrorist attack. "Some people who lean a different way politically also rioted and destroyed property." Yes. And? So now it's all clear for everyone to see that there are nuts on both sides who take things too far. We've been over the BLM protests already, I don't ever want to hear about conservatives being the party of law and order and supporting police after what we saw Wednesday. As you said, both sides are fucked up.
