    You haven’t explained how exactly they were “trying to overthrow the government”. Surely they stormed it guns blazing, took prisoners, had a list of demands, etc……right?

      So, it doesn’t count because they were incompetent and didn’t get what they wanted.

      But yes, they charged with guns and demanded for Trump to be president and his opponents be locked up.

        So you think that they were trying to overthrow the government but just forgot to take their guns and hostages and their list of demands and all that, so instead just took selfies and looked around?

        I know you guys are just toeing the line but Jesus Christ I hope you are at least smart enough to see through that idiotic “they tried to overthrow the government” line.

        I gotta say, your second amendment may as well be thrown out tomorrow because you ain’t doing shit with it.

          Dude they took guns and made demands. Wtf are you smoking? Stop this bullshit denial, it’s so transparent.

          Literally the only people who don’t agree it was an insurrection are the insurrectionists themselves and their ideological compatriots, i.e., Trumpists.

          YOU are the one toeing a line here: the party line of Trump’s followers.

            No they didn’t 🤣

            I’m not american, not a trump follower lol. I have never voted for a conservative party and likely never will. I’m not an idiot though, and I don’t think people taking selfies after being let into a building through the front door by security is an attempt to overthrow the government.

              Why do you keep repeating that as if it will make it more true? Do the police barricades they stormed past not count? Do the rifles not count? Does the fucking gallows they erected while chanting “HANG PENCE” somehow not count?

                    You said guns, rifles. There were no guns. Your link doesn’t say guns. Your link specifically says no guns 😂

                    There are videos of the security just opening doors for people. That shaman guy got a bloody guided tour with them opening door after door for him.

                    As for the gallows, you mean a shoddily made noose setup that was setup way back away from the building long before any “insurrection” that was the equivalent of a handheld sign? 😂
