It's not 1812, when the British did a proper job on The Capitol, so, the terrorists will be controlled and sent packing. Questions must be asked of why, intentionally by the look of it, security was so unprepared, so lack when it was obvious this was going to come to the fore. Homeland Security chief is off in the ME on a farewell tour... Speaks volumes. Imagine if the insurgents had been black? They'd have all been shot. Dead.

Antifa in MAGA gear were let in the Capitol Building, and Trump fanatics followed them in. Classic.

I think the walls have closed in on that conspiracy theory.

@Chiseled451 - We should be, but soon the comments section will turn into a swamp with people claiming it was BLM and "Antifa" members rioting. If you watch Fox they'll talk about how conservatives are the victims that were forced into the position. If you watch Newsmax or OAN it's conspiracy theories about how it wasn't real Trump supporters.

It's such an American thing that Americans think they can support something bad, but then claim they didn't actually want the bad parts of it.

Sorry, you don't get to pick and choose, even if your American Exceptionalism tries to tell you otherwise. There's this big thing causing them problems: reality.

This is just madness, US is better than this.

I don't understand why people say such illogical things. The US is not better than this. If the US was better than this, it would not have happened.

Actually, that was 1814, and they badly burned the White House and tried to do the same to the Capitol building (which was still under construction at the time), but it rained heavily so they could only leave a few scorch marks. The Brits claimed it was a revenge raid for the sacking of York in Canada by US forces earlier in the war.

The Proud Boys leader said they would dress like BLM and Antifa.

You mean Enqriue, that Afro-Cuban?

Shot dead? False, without a doubt. There is more baloney in this assertion than can be found in a delicatessen. If they would have been black, they would have been lauded, by liberals, for attempting to rectify so called years of mistreatment at the hands of oppressors. They would not be held accountable for their actions because it would be claimed they had a disadvantaged childhood, thus allowing and justifying destruction of property. By the way, during the years of slavery, some slave owners (oppressors) were black themselves, .

How many blacks were shot and killed by law enforcement during the riots in Milwaukee and Minneapolis? I heard of none. The police allowed them to burn down businesses and loot stores. The police were instructed not interfere unless there was imminent danger to innocent life. Many of these businesses were owned by law abiding blacks that worked their backsides off for many years, even decades, to make a better life for them and their family.  Those are the blacks that make this country great, not the blacks that riot.

Here's an example from Baltimore shown on CNN (such a liberal station, it is surprising they would show this as it does not fit CNN’s agenda, but there were no other alternatives-no other groups were rioting other than BLM and their antifa back-ups):

Tear gas was used to control the riots in many cities in 2020. Tear gas was also used on the rioters at the capitol.  In fact, one person was shot and killed. She was a white woman. So don’t tell me blacks would have been targeted. By the way, there were blacks present during these riots at the capitol. Why were they not targeted by police and shot? The answer is that your narrative of victimhood is completely false. More blacks are killed in black on black crime in Chicago alone in one month, than killed by police in years when the blacks are not armed. The vast majority of the time they are shooting or assaulting the police. Even black police defend themselves. Police actually kill more white people than blacks, simply because there are many more whites in the population, thus greater chances of encountering them when a crime is committed. But you won't acknowledge these facts. By the way, the last ones in a poor black community that want to see the police defunded are the poor blacks themselves that follow the law. The police are the only ones protecting them.

I think it's ironic that the people who damaged the Capitol can face 10 years in prison from the executive order Trump signed that he thought was targeting BLM protestors. Ha!

The first person to die for the US was a black man Christopher Attucks, the first person dying to make america great again was a white women all the while Trumps goes to play golf while she is laid up on ice. TOTALLY insane, i guess you got what she was looking when she tried to go through the window a privileged to die for an insane selfish person.
