There was no insurrection!

CBS News

Updated January 5, 2024 at 11:49 AM

3 years after [b][b]Jan. 6 Capitol riot[/b][/b], investigators still searching for offenders.

There you have it. Even [b]CBS news is calling it a riot therefore, it's NOT an insurrection.[/b]

Time to stop falsely stating made up facts. Jan 6th insurrection, just like the Russian collusion, all lies by the Trump hating left to destroy Trump.

It should be obvious by now that the left, will do or say anything to get rid of Trump. Why? Because they are afraid of him and do not want to give up any of their power. If you truly believe the country is better off with democrats like Biden and his administration running the Washington Circus sideshow, then you are truly blind to what is really happening.

No, as she was not even carrying a gun.

whowasthatmaskedman · 70-79, M

@BritishFailedAesthetic She was at the front of a mob that was trying to break down doors and get to the politicians. Now grant that the politicians lives may not have been worth saving. But it was the guards job to do that. And as a member of the US armed forces that woman had no business being there and a full understanding of what she was risking..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman Easy, I am not a Jan 6th supporter, it is a clear violation of Romans 13 I'm not even politically conservative.

But you have riot police tjat could make baracades, etc.

I believe she was scaling the walls BUT she was unarmed.

whowasthatmaskedman · 70-79, M

@BritishFailedAesthetic She was inside, trying to break down an internal glass panelled door and had a clear view of the officer with the gun on the other side.. There is video.😷

@whowasthatmaskedman Imagine if it had been a black woman killed by a white cop instead of the other way around. The riot would have lasted a week instead of a couple of hours.

BritishFailedAesthetic · M

@whowasthatmaskedman Was she armed? If not a few cops and tasers would have done the job if she broke through.

whowasthatmaskedman · 70-79, M

@BritishFailedAesthetic I suggest you go look at some footage of the incident. A screaming mob battering on one side of a glass panelled door. a handful of uniformed guards on the other side. If that door had been opened those guards would not have stood a chance.. As it was, one single shot was fired and the crowd scattered. I might also remind you that it was Trump who wanted the Secret Service NOT to screen those people going to the riot for weapons. Coincidence? Maybe. 😷

@eli1601 If the insurrectionists on J6 had been black, we would still be counting the dead bodies.

eli1601 · 70-79, M

@JSul3 Seattle and Portland in 2020 disprove that.

JSul3 · 70-79

@eli1601 Disprove what?

@eli1601 claims [quote]Imagine if it had been a black woman killed by a white cop instead of the other way around. The riot would have lasted a week instead of a couple of hours.[/quote]
Nope. The historical facts prove your claim wrong.

[quote]50 Black women have been killed by US police since 2015.
Not one of the officers has been convicted.[/quote]

Only one of those killings, Brionna Taylor, generated protests, and they didn't rise to the level of "riot." In fact, most of the protests were in response to a not guilty verdict on the cops who broke into the wrong home and killed Brionna Taylor as she slept in her bed.

@eli1601 Thank you for dragging race into one American political issue that actually has very little race in it? I think it is rather disingenuous of you to suppose a black woman would be at the front of such an overwhelmingly white male redneck mob.. Ya'hear me boy?😷

basilfawlty89 · 31-35, M

@eli1601 Ashli fucked around and found out. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

BritishFailedAesthetic · M

@basilfawlty89 Would agree with you if she had actually been armed.

ElwoodBlues · M

@BritishFailedAesthetic Classic armchair quarterback.
How is the cop supposed to know what weapons she has? The cop brandishes his gun and shouts "stop" as the first person in a violent mob climbs through one of the windows the mob had been smashing. How is the cop supposed to assess Ashli's inventory of weapons?

BritishFailedAesthetic · M

@ElwoodBlues With your logic no wonder why American cops shoot so many unarmed people and are trigger happy 🤷

They should take lessons from Canadian, UK and EU cops

ElwoodBlues · M

@BritishFailedAesthetic It's not just my logic, it's the rules of engagement for riot police, and it's the way judges dispense justice here. Are we barbaric? Kinda. That's the direction US society has evolved. If you don't want to visit, I won't take it personally.

whowasthatmaskedman · 70-79, M

@BritishFailedAesthetic Great suggestion. As soon as the people are armed at the same level as Canadian, UK and EU citizens..But it wouldnt have happened on my watch.. I would have called in an airstrike while they were still outside and raised the average US IQ..😷

BritishFailedAesthetic · M

@ElwoodBlues I lived in North Carolina for three years as a kid.

Would love to go again on holiday- either to Naples or Key West or to a historic colonial town.

Would love to go to an American church there too for fellowship with American brothers and sisters in Christ.

@BritishFailedAesthetic Back to my original question:
How is the cop supposed to assess Ashli's inventory of weapons as she climbs through one of the windows the mob had been smashing?

BritishFailedAesthetic · M

@ElwoodBlues Back to my original answer before my last reply.
