blaming liberals for the invasion and not the sitting president who egged the right-wing extremists on, attempting to discredit myriad state and federal leaders who criticized the president, and attacking people here simply because self-image is more important than facts and relationships.

Now wait a minute. I've been clear about Trump's culpability on this and have even promoted the idea that Trump could and should face charges over this.

I think you have been, too. None of this was directed at you.

I also feel there are other causes and this does go beyond Trump.

And beyond white people, too, I agree. There's a plurality of blame we have to contend with if we have any hope of fixing these problems.

yesterday WAS a tipping point that resulted from decades of escalating cultural warfare. This started during the Bush administration, well before people took Trump seriously.

Tides can be reversed. Presidents can decide not to be instigators. Political groups can try to keep the fringe of their own party in check. Just because the left has been antagonistic doesn't mean that the rest was a foregone conclusion.

The worst part? These guys didn’t even get a TV or pair of Nike’s out of this...

They got some nice stationery and other tchotchkes, though. And they could have had an assload of very nice A/V equipment if they didn't, y'know, smash it up.

Do you think some of them were as shocked as anybody that they made it through?

Well, they certainly forgot their spray cans...

@george-k seems like he’s on the other side of the street from the Fuck Da Police group.

[Doctor Phibes]

He's been identified, and apparently is a QAnon nut

That's right! I'd forgotten about that.

Nice to see he gets around.

Don't these people have, you know, jobs?

Would you hire him?

Apparently, he's an actor, a voice-over artist and a singer. IOW, he's unemployed.

Reminds me of an old Louis CK skit about a street protester. “Just because you have a magic marker and no job doesn’t mean you get to set rules for the whole intersection.”

I think we have a job waiting for him to make license plates.

Oddly enough, I do have a shirt that says 'lick my balls if you love Jesus'. It turns out that the claims about Massachusetts being godless are true.

IIRC, I think his dad is a judge in Brooklyn. But I certainly could be wrong...

I'm somewhat haunted by that pic of him carrying the Speaker's podium. It's kinda silly, I know, but I can't stop wondering what became of it. Did he ditch it? Did the police take it back to the chamber? Did it get smashed?

I gotta admit, that pic of the podium clutched by that #$%&#&@ troglodyte does frost me somewhat.

A detail, I know, but anyway.

He'll certainly be a proud man today.
