He should have stayed at home.
Sounds like his wife supported him.

I am confident that he was just a concerned citizen who, at the time, wanted to make his presence felt.

I've spent a lot of time looking at videos of the rally, and I have to tell you, this guy looked like just another tourist to me.

He just looks like a knobhead with a stupid hat to me. Sorry, a knobhead with a plinth, and a stupid hat, and a lot of cheap booze.

All the other kids were doing it... Again, stupid - but they felt they were acting upon the directive of those who told them the country was being stolen from them - and Joseph
StalinBiden was not the true President. While guilty of poor judgment, they felt they were acting in the best interests of the nation as defined by the President. -

I mean, watch the videos of them after they got inside. There was clearly no plan whatsoever.
I really hate what happened, but assuming we take that line of thinking kluurs, would it be better for the country overall if they went easy on the sentencing? Or has all this shit from the past year gone quite far enough and now's the time to get serious about punishing mobs?

You have to think about the moral hazard problem.
Oh, and they beat a federal officer to death with a fire extinguisher.
What do you think they would have done had they captured Pelosi or Pence?

Well that's another thing, are we going to say they're all the same "they" or prosecute them individually? I'm sure we have the surveillance footage to single people out, right?

Obviously we try them as individuals.

That would make the death of the police officer completely irrelevant for the guys who just invaded the offices.

Apparently married to a physician, stay at home dad of 5 kids (according to a local Florida news outlet).

They had Rand Paul and his wife for a while, but then they let him go.

How sportingly white of the rampaging mob to extend the Pauls' that level of common decency. I am sure they recognized them as fellow libertarians.

I imagine the murderer thought they were in a physical fight. I don't imagine Pelosi or Pence presenting themselves as being in a physical fight.

It was in all the papers
If you are interested in the races involved you can watch the video (the whites misbehaved, as expected)

I'm really glad I have the virtue inside of me to recognize this.

Actually I am more intrigued by the commonalities and similar degrees of blind rage between a patriotic libertarian mob as in the video and an anarchist anti-fa mob in other videos posted here in the recent past. To be honest, I believe both are comprised of similar social cast offs.
Elbows up!
