Ya'll, this is debate 101... find a negative fact and make the opponent fact-check you into admitting the negative fact.
Negative fact here? Trump incited a riot to try and overturn his election (landslide) loss, resulting in 100+ cops getting injured and multiple deaths. You can debate if it's 140 or 100 or 80, or if it's 10 deaths, or 1. The point has been made.
Well at this point you're just lying.
Where? I can be a knucklehead at times
The only factual death is Babbit. All other deaths are connected to the riots with some hand waved wish casting. The rest of the description you present as fact is just a non provable rhetorical framing.

Wish casting? For deaths? You had what, 3 or 4 cops die within a couple days of the riot from health or suicide reasons? You had a couple protestors die of heart attack during the riot. You think there is NO correlation? You think these 5-6 folks would've literally died without the Jan 6 event? That is the true question. I think their deaths very, very, very, very, very likely would not have happened without the Jan 6 event. If you disagree, then we're at an impasse. This isn't court, this is just my common sense jurisdiction.
If you agree that most of their deaths likely would not have happened without Jan 6th, then we're making progress on common ground.

Otherwise I must be on the same crazy pills that make me question why folks are parsing out Walz's statement from 10 years ago while ignoring the dozens of daily lies from Trump... mind boggling.
But, I already voted (for a gay dude of all people), so most of this is entertainment now.

Again, correlation does not equal causation. Heart attacks are not caused by a singular event but by a long period of declining cardiovascular health that culminates in blockage. Suicides are not either and are not uncommon among LEOs. Both are a culmination of events.
In short, those deaths were likely to happen soon anyway. January 6 did not cause any otherwise healthy person to have a heart attack or commit suicide by itself.

How often does a VEEP debate change anything?
Not often, but in a really tight race, you take a few extra votes where you can get them.
Secondly, the debate did a lot for Vance, and may have changed a lot of MSM-fueled negative opinions.

Agreed, he was very articulate. For example, his answer about abortion (and that republicans need to do a better job at earning trust and supporting all the "stuff" that surrounds having a baby... child care, health care, affordable homes) as well as his discussion about how Walz has a tough job playing whack-a-mole denying Trump's victories and hiding Kamala's failures. That was a great part in the debate.

We'll never know, but I would wager a good amount of money those 3 cops would still be alive today (over 3 years later). For the heart attacks, those were probably inevitable but also possibly triggered by the mayhem. We'll never know. We do know there were hundreds of injuries and at least 1 death (but likely up to 5) that were caused by this event. If only it could have been prevented... but yeah, we should focus on the future. I would imagine (or hope) when Trump loses in November he'll concede, albeit with lots of excuses and others to blame.

It’s easy to wager when we’ll never know. Here’s something we know. Absent the information that these people had been at the riot, nobody would be dumbfounded at what might have caused these deaths. They would be just more statistics, and you nor I even know what sort of a statistical blip they would have represented. No other riot has their deaths tallied in this way. Only January 6. Has anybody ever thought to compile numbers on cops who died within some time frame of the BLM riots, or any other riots ever? No, because there isn’t any overwhelming motivation to present those numbers for their rhetorical effect. Here there is, and here you are playing your part, presenting the numbers with rhetorical flare.
Education is extremely important.

Ok, so 8 hours after the riot one cop died from a stroke, 2 days later, another cop committed suicide, and another day later, another cop committed suicide. Yes... it's very normal to have 3 capitol police officers die within a few days of each other. (And yes, 2 other capitol police officers committed suicide 6 months later, but that's another story...)
No other riot has their deaths tallied in this way. Only January 6. Has anybody ever thought to compile numbers on cops who died within some time frame of the BLM riots, or any other riots ever?
Absolutely. Just do a quick google of BLM injuries and deaths.
I only bring this all up because it still hurts my brain how folks are minimizing or finding excuses for what happened that day. I know a cop that works there, it is VERY abnormal to have 3 officers die within days of an event... so the likelihood January 6th caused at least 4 deaths IMO is north of 90%, not to mention injuries to law enforcement.
