@MrBrownstone Brian Sicknick

After serving in the Air National Guard and dreaming of becoming a police officer, Brian D. Sicknick joined the Capitol Police force in 2008. He died the day after he was overpowered and beaten by rioters from the mob at the Capitol.

@MrBrownstone 'False' - No , it's true actually ;

"Robert Pape, a professor at the University of Chicago who studies political violence, has conducted half a dozen nationwide polls since the Jan. 6 attack and has repeatedly found the same results: that between 15 million and 20 million American adults believe that violence would be justified to return Mr. Trump to office."

@ron122 Any idea on what may have caused the strokes (he suffered two btw).
MrBrownstone · 46-50, M
@room101 What’s my view?
ididntknow · 51-55, M
@ididntknow look it up, but not on CNN, MSNBC, They do actually lie to you

@MrBrownstone 'NY times isn’t biased at all.' - NYT didn't do the research.
MrBrownstone · 46-50, M
@RodionRomanovitch They did the editing
RodionRomanovitch · 56-60, M
@MrBrownstone What editing ? They simply reported his findings.

Or do you mean they misrepresented them ?
ididntknow · 51-55, M
@RodionRomanovitch why was the New York post censored in the run up to the 2020 election, even on Twitter, Do you know ?
RodionRomanovitch · 56-60, M
@ididntknow Pray tell , and please let it be relevant.
ididntknow · 51-55, M
@RodionRomanovitch I think he means editing, ie, posting sections out of context, ie, Trump said go to the capital, peacefully and patriotically, but when you saw it on CNN, MSNBC, the peacefully and patriotically bit was missing, funny that, isn’t it,

@MrBrownstone @ididntknow Here's the actual study if either of you are genuinely interested.

Scroll a third of the way down to discover ; 10% of adult Americans (25m people) support the use of violence.

The NYT were actually being a little more conservative with their numbers.

@RodionRomanovitch The New York Times, tell lies constantly
RodionRomanovitch · 56-60, M
@ididntknow I just gave you the original study , which (unsurprisingly) you chose to ignore.

I'm not even getting into your Hunter Biden nonsense. Stay on topic or get deleted.
@MrBrownstone A stroke? They magically appeared after being hit on the head with a fire extinguisher from Trump supports.

Sure a stroke

@TheLustyLord Making up facts I see.
@MrBrownstone They’re not made up just because you don’t like them.
MrBrownstone · 46-50, M
@TheLustyLord They aren’t real because you believe it.
