Are right wing vigilantes terrorists?

Do we have to call them something else because conservatives benefit from their terror?

I don't understand how you can be part of an insurrection and not be called a Domestic Terrorist. Congressman Andrew Clyde almost got to that point but called them Tourists rather than Terrorists. "Normal day of tourist visits” Andrew Clyde was seen on camera barricading a door on Jan 6th.

Isn't it strange that none of them were charged with insurrection?
@Pitchblue Admitting the truth would raise some very awkward questions about certain members of congress supporting them which is a circle even they can't square with mental gymnastics.

@Pitchblue It is hilarious that so many people want to call that seemingly spontaneous mob activity an 'insurrection'. It wasn't an insurrection, it was theater, and a perfect set up for over six months of persuasive optics around the Whitehouse, followed by an impressive thespian production they called a "hearing". The whole series of events was an ingenious ploy to further demonize conservative Christians and Trump supporters. It was a pseudo democrat propaganda gold mine! Definitely deserving of an Oscar!
Funny how things got quiet after the politically weaponized FBI came up with this scenario.
[quote]Reuters disclosed that the FBI has apparently struggled to support the account of a coordinated “insurrection” on Jan. 6. Reuters’s FBI sources said that, despite months of intense investigation, they could find "scant evidence" of any "organized plot" and instead found that virtually all of the cases are “one-offs.” One agent explained, “Ninety to 95 percent of these are one-off cases. Then you have 5 percent, maybe, of these militia groups that were more closely organized. But there was no grand scheme with Roger Stone and Alex Jones and all of these people to storm the Capitol and take hostages."

In other words, they found a protest that became a runaway riot as insufficient security preparations quickly collapsed. While there clearly were those set upon trashing the Capitol, most people were shown milling about in the halls; many took selfies and actively described the scene on social media.[/quote]

Eric holder told the Democrats to never let a perfectly good crisis go to waste.

Jan 6th, helped get rid of Trump. The China virus will probably be what helps usher in communism, and the thing with the horses, will probably be what defunds the border patrol. You have to hand it to the Dems, they're really good at playing dirty.
@JimBeam Oh My God. Why not just say Democrats started the insurrection, Democrats infected Americans with COVID and then tried to force GQPers to get vaccinated and that is why they are dying now. The Left knew the Right wouldn't get vaccinated. Whipping people from horses is what I think about when someone says they are a Democrat certainly not something Republicans working on the border would do. Meanwhile Rich Mitch is threatening to not raise the debt ceiling which could easily put the world into a depression. BUT, that's not playing dirty.

Don't be silly the Covid virus came about when a pangolin kissed a turtle in a wet market in Wuhan, China.
