Are you talking about the one bomb 50 years ago by the Weather Underground in 1971 where they called to make sure everyone evacuated? Well then. It’s ok to bomb the Capital if you call ahead!

A wise, self-preservation, move by Belichick. At this point we all need to be very careful. The Left is gearing up to demonize and purge anyone even remotely affiliated with Trump. Despite the fact that he said nothing to incite the idiots who stormed the Capital last week. Certainly no worse than what Democrat leaders have been spewing for years, inciting mass destruction and death across this nation. Despite the fact that leftie “heroes” recently tried to storm the White House, hell bent on assaulting the first family, and injuring dozens of police officers. Despite the fact that left-wing activists have actually planted bombs at the Capital. One of those would be mass murderers became a trusted advisor to Barack Obama. The other, pardoned by Clinton, is now a prominent member of the BLM movement. To today’s Democrat Party, 1984 isn’t a cautionary tale, but an instruction manual. Tread lightly, until we can reclaim the country back from these lunatics, and then maybe Belichick can eventually collect his medal without getting canceled.

That was my sentiment two days ago, but you insisted on perpetuating the argument by daring me to watch a video. I'm glad you finally figured out how to end it. Now, I want to hear more about those sporks! Sorry I triggered you, after Frank triggered you. There's that lack of self-awareness again, champ. I thought you might have had it licked. Since you appear to be incapable of following your own advice, I'm going to do it for you. Full stop. (walking away)

We can all see what you're doing here Holy smokes, are you still flailing away at this? How many off-topic posts are you going to make, complaining about off-topic posts? How many times are you going to whine about political posts, after you’ve swamped this thread with political posts? How many times are you going to moan about personal attacks, after you’ve repeatedly attacked my character? How many times are you going to bitch about me perpetuating this argument, as you continue to perpetuate this argument? The complete lack of self-awareness on display, by you, is truly an amazing thing to behold! BTW, when you claim that you’ve chatted about other topics during our political exchange, one looks at the posts you wrote leading up to that claim. Pointing to posts written after that claim is just another example of the sort of dishonesty you’ve demonstrated throughout our discussion. (Though I am looking forward to reading more about your views on sporks. That’s a fascinating topic that doesn’t get the attention it deserves. ... and, intellectually, it’s right in your wheel-house.) At this point, there appears to be little doubt. Helpful hint: If you really want to terminate a discussion, then don’t ask questions that solicit an answer. One would think that such a simple thing would not need to be explained – but here we are.

I've been 'dancing' with people in the political conversation you startedOh dear. When I said “keep digging”, I didn’t mean for you to take it literally. Trying to blame your voluminous political tirades on someone else is pretty comical. It’s like dousing yourself with kerosene, leaping on a candle, and then blaming the person holding the candle for the resulting inferno. “people” plural? I see one (singular) other-topic post by you, during your multi-page political deluge of this thread. You think that is going to get you off the hook? 😂 What do you think you’ve got there, champ? It’s me explaining the idiocy of your objection to my post about the Capital in a thread in which the Capital had already been mentioned. That is abundantly clear if you include the comment I was responding too. Would you like another shovel, or are you moving on to a back-hoe?

Holy cow, dude. You sure do tend to prattle. What is that, like 1000+ words, with very little of any value actually said? I commented on the Capital incident in a thread where it was commented on twice prior to me “barging in”. If we are going to admonish anyone for turning this thread into a political shit-show, by post count, word count, and flying off on political tangents, the biggest offender is you. All I did was make a comment on a previous attempt to storm the Capital - and then bat back against your apoplectic political assertions. You’re the one who got all indignant, like an incensed Karen encountering someone without a mask ... alone ... on a hiking trail. Let’s see if you can resist the temptation to mischaracterization my argument for the nth time, inject a ton of politics (again) and then complain about all the politics (again). That shtick is getting real old. You made the conversation political. You already admitted to being triggered by Frank's second post Geez, dude. You can’t even get that right. Your newest made up story is that I posted because of Frank’s post? Uh no. I simply mentioned it after you bitched about my contribution to the subject of the Capital, started by Frank, and then NJtoTX. There was no indication that it was an off limits topic, until you tried to make it off limits. It takes at least two to tango, love. And you’ve been politically dancing with more than just me in this thread. It’s hilarious that the biggest offender (you) is the one pointing fingers. Keep digging, Champ!

If you’ve got your knickers in a bunch because someone said that right-wing extremists “never” sink to the level of left-wing extremist, well, you’ve been arguing with the wrong person, champ. It wasn’t me. Obviously there is the occasional instance when that has happened. This is one of them. Of course, that isn’t good enough for you. You’ve been trying to characterize the entire “right” with what occurred on Wednesday (“You’re all frauds!”), while turning a blind eye to all the left-wing crap that has previously transpired. Not to mention your dishonest attempts to make it look even worse by lumping in deaths and pipe bombs that you know nothing about. I’ve got news for you, chum. The 70 million “people who support the police” and voted for Trump do not condone this incident. The desire that the participants be held accountable is widespread. I have yet to find a right-wing source that’s has not condemned it, in no uncertain terms. That is the difference between the Right and the Left. We shun our extremists. They are an embarrassment. The Left embraces them. The one with their knickers in a twist is you. This isn't even a political thread, you barged in making a false equivalency because you're embarrassed extremists from your political party committed terrorist acts. You immediately went on the defensive for something that is indefensible. "The left also raided the capitol once. Nobody died, no pipe bombs were left, but clearly it was just as bad." You went from deflection to denial, "We don't know who killed that guy, maybe it was Antifa!" It's equal parts predictably hilarious and pathetic. You're just pissed that somebody isn't letting you sell your bullshit story. You complain about the 'left' constantly. Is it obnoxious when somebody makes generalizations? There is nothing dishonest about my argument. People died, including a police officer. Pipe bombs were left as threats. You don't know everything about every fire that was started during BLM protests, what's the difference? Enough with the ridiculous denials already. "The most violent thing I saw were people kicking in a door." I guess I'm more familiar with violence than you are. Because those people were fired on by an armed guard, pretty violent. Officers getting their masks ripped off or crushed by the mob while screaming for help, pretty violent. And I know you're allergic to context, but let's apply some here anyway. Those people kicking in the door, after asking the officers to move because, "We don't want to hurt you," I wonder what they would've done if they didn't move? I wonder if this was before or after the other officer had been killed? People were chanting for the execution of the Vice President and still you insist there's nothing to see here, it's truly incredible. Then the 'right' needs a better representative on this board, because all you're doing is defending them. Stop pretending this wasn't a terrorist act and stop comparing it to women yelling about Brett Kavanaugh. These two things are not comparable. You started this conversation with that argument, and it was as ridiculous then as it is now. You both do, this conversation proves it. I'm a centrist and I was against the rioting last year and against viewing police as a whole as villains. These conversations were done to death last year, and the right wing kooks always had the same rhetoric of law and order, supporting the police and the republic, and insisting the 'radical left' was the real threat. Wednesday's events PROVED extremism has taken over the right. You can't argue that with me when the sitting president personally convinced those people to riot! Is the President not the face of the party? Enough with the hypocrisy and the bullshit. Holy cow, dude. You sure do tend to prattle. What is that, like 1000+ words, with very little of any value actually said? I commented on the Capital incident in a thread where it was commented on twice prior to me “barging in”.

I've said it a million times, both sides have extremists who take things too far. The problem is the right always insists they never sink to that level; while doing far worse with no logical motivation beyond not getting their way. The people who were 'supporting the police' in the election were killing them instead on Wednesday. The people so offended by kneeling during the national anthem were chanting about executing the Vice President of the United States. They're liars and frauds, just like you, just like your maniacal leader. If you’ve got your knickers in a bunch because someone said that right-wing extremists “never” sink to the level of left-wing extremist, well, you’ve been arguing with the wrong person, champ.

Well then. I see you’re now in full melt-down mode. Making up irrational fantasies about me watching Fox News and murdering people ... adding to your mischaracterization of my argument and that overwrought account of what happened on Wednesday. When it starts to feel like I’m arguing with an eight year old, it’s time to walk away. Watch this video. Oh darn, I didn’t walk away fast enough. Ok, fine. I’ll bite. I’ve seen all that footage already, Ace. Nothing new there, except the overwrought commentary by MSNBC. The most violent image was those guys assaulting a door. ... and I fully agree that they should be made to pay for the damage. Wrong again, cupcake. My point was to counter the claim that the attempt to disrupt the proceedings inside the Capital via mob intimidation was some sort of unprecedented occurrence. It was not. Dems do it all the time. They also bust shit up, and police officers have died confronting them. There is no high ground. The Trump supporters who breached the Capital are just as wrong as any Democrat mob, and they should face the full extent of the law. I don’t want any supportive lawmaker releasing them or organizing bail, like the Democrats do. In this instance, most of the “murderous mob” inside the Capital was just roaming around taking selfies. What struck me was the lack of destruction. I’ve seen more damage after an unruly sporting event. The one exception is the police officer who died from an injury sustained while tussling with ... someone. When we know more about what specifically happened, I can comment on that. You, on the other hand, are ripe and ready to condemn everyone who was there as a willing accomplice to murder. Your entire counter argument is little more than hysterical bluster, with the occasional deflection and fabricated story. Now, be a good DC Fan and proclaim yourself the “winner” of this argument, so we can move on. Oh wait, You already did! It always cracks me up when someone does that.

What are you talking about? 160 people, who stormed into the capital, were arrested. You’re spinning like a top. You reference an article that quotes the exact same individual in the youtube clip I found. Between the two of us, we’ve found one guy talking about “civil war” in 2016. It took me 15 seconds to find him, and I heard what he said, first hand. It took you 30 seconds. Congratulations on you burgeoning google skills! That’s rather sexist of you, sport. You don’t think a pack of enraged women are capable of striking a police officer, resulting in his accidental death? Apparently you haven’t been watching some of the liberal female participation in the “mostly peaceful protests”, over the last year or so. This particular women’s group thought they were sufficiently threatening to “scare” the authorities into shutting things down. Why not? You’re milking a 2016 comment by a lone Trump supporter on youtube for all it’s worth! And now you’re making up visions of a murderous armed mob roaming the halls of the Capital, killing “people” (plural). This country survived liberals actually bombing the Capital. I think we’ll survive someone sitting in Nancy Pelosi’s office, uninvited. Shall I add the 160 people arrested to your growing list of things “that didn’t happen”, but did? Is this your, “look! squirrel!” moment? I’m aware of a couple Islamists arrested in Bowling Green during the Obama administration and convicted of terrorist acts against US troops in Iraq. Using your logic - since a terrorist act on US soil “didn’t happen”, there was no reason to be concerned about these guys. Just a couple of mostly peaceful tourists, and anyone who thinks otherwise (you Trump supporters, I’m looking at you!) is a racist! Am I right? Here you go. Do you remember the details? That's the protest you're comparing to Wednesday. Nobody died. Pipe bombs weren't left at the RNC and DNC headquarters. So no, some radical attack like Wednesday never fucking happened. Do you get it yet? whooosh ... there go the goal posts! The relevant elements of the two incidents was the attempt to disrupt legal government proceedings, via mob rule. That is what the selective pearl clutchers are wringing their hands over. One was a terrible threat to the sanctity of the USA and an indictment of Trump supporters in general, the other is simply getting tossed down your mile deep memory hole. I, btw, condone neither. Have your most impressive google skills located the video of security guards opening the doors to the Capital so the crowd of murderous Trump supporters could rush walk in? Do you know who left the pipe bombs at the RNC and DNC? Answer: no. But that doesn’t stop you from implying that it was a deranged Trump supporter. I think you’ve made up enough stuff, already, Ace. Hand me the binoculars. The goal post just dipped below the horizon! You keep harping about a Trump “civil war”. Yet you can only link to an article that quotes my youtube guy using the term, civil war. There’s a mile chasm between anti-government and civil war, chum. Do try to keep the exaggerations to a minimum, mmmkay? Is this another one of your fantasies? You seem to be confused about something Kellyanne Conway said, when she conflated the arrest of the Bowling Green Islamic terrorists with the Islamic terrorist who massacred all those folks in Orlando. I’m pretty sure that got cleared up within days of her error, yet here you are, years later repeating it. I guess I should ask - Do you believe in the Pulse nightclub massacre? A parting fabrication for good measure, eh? For the record, whoever struck that officer should get nailed to the wall. I don’t care if it’s a Trump supporter, an ANTIFA infiltrator, or BLM rioter.

The plan to occupy and force a shut down of the capital building by Democrats, fueled by fabricated stories about a Supreme Court nominee, and the subsequent emergency shut down by the Capital Police out of fear of the protesters never happened? Like your claim that the Democrats blocking a resolution to condemn the riots and violence never happened? 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. That plan never came to fruition, cupcake/ace/sport/champ.

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. He made a joke in his second post. I will continue to ignore something that never happened, just like you ignore Trump supporters who threatened 'civil war' if he lost in 2016. Take this bullshit to the thread dedicated to politics. The plan to occupy and force a shut down of the capital building by Democrats, fueled by fabricated stories about a Supreme Court nominee, and the subsequent emergency shut down by the Capital Police out of fear of the protesters never happened?
