Does your safety blanket match your hat?

Be quite dude!! I'm watching the provided link!! This is extremely important to Alf(a.k.a. Icarus).

And yes, it matches!!

I knew it matched. You seem like the kind of roofer who color coordinates his accessories. How’s the video? Are you finding it interesting?

Sir, it's safe and the information is very Informative. Please watch it so Alf Omega feels like he's contributing to the forum.

This should be mandatory viewing for anyone pretending to have a clue what happened that day.

Thanks for the heads up, AO.

I'd be watching it right now if I had HBO. The capital riot is an event that right-wingers are unable to deal with. My right-wing friends have never brought it up in any way. I don't bring it up because I never bring things up with them. It's check mate. There's no response. No republican who would still vote for Trump can face this event, which is evidenced by the 13 sock-puppets that immediately surfaced to laugh off the documentary as yesterday's news and not a big deal.

My understanding is that Fox news barely broadcast any footage of it. Am I right about that?

The irony is that, you want to live in a police state? Just wait. It's not coming via Biden and "socialism".

Lisa Booth took on the issue. She did an entire podcast on it.

Democrats certainly can't run on the economy their policies have created in 2022. Jan 6 is the only card they have to play and it's a very weak one.

I just finished it. Brutal.

The best defense the right has come up with is essentially the Shaggy defense, "It wasn't me" (and just like in the song, everyone saw them do it). You've got these nimrods at the Capitol shouting on camera, "“F” antifa!"

Oh, the irony of people shouting opposition to an anti-fascist group while trying to help a coup and install a fascist. These are some poorly educated/incredibly misinformed people. These kinds of religions are damned dangerous. Dangerous and stupid.

[Some Schmo]

Oh, and that's another thing the GOP has been lying about for years: their support of the police. Watching this show made me empathize with them like never before (and I've always supported the police).

The GOP is full of crap, and they've taught their base to swallow crap so they're full of it too. Every single slogan is empty, meaningless wind.

This is the line Ajax adopted some months ago. The argument is basically that there were tens of thousands of protesters behind the fighting and they were all peaceful. You shouldn't judge the entire group based on a few bad apples unless of course we're talking about a BLM incident. But what these damned coward morons don't get is the only reason those "tens of thousands" of people weren't fighting cops is because they weren't at the frontlines. Everyone pushing towards the front lines, which was quite literally EVERYONE, knew full well what they were doing was illegal.

Indeed. Tucker Carlson went on a rant calling those cops who testified "actors" and gave them a fake award for their "performance." Of course if this were a cop who was attacked at a BLM rally, the response would be completely opposite.
