Looks like something that some certain guy would say it happens in shithole countries only
iamthecomet
There's video on Twitter of some of the police literally taking selfies with the mob inside the building.
LychFinderGeneral
I also saw police toss flashbangs into the MAGA crowd. Different departments or what?
hellsCosmosDog
I hate to say it but they should just shoot them. The cops shot everyone else for less.
TrumpSuxIvankastoeslikechillidogs
Skin tone is too light, they'd be sued and jailed

It’s disgusting but unsurprising. These ignorant, bigoted people have been aided & abetted by the GOP’s lying leadership at every turn.

Where are the arrests?
DarthProdigal
Thankfully a TON of arrests happened afterwards... but none of them are the politicians that DESERVE it for starting and continuing to flame this dumpster fire.

One lady has died from being shot inside the capital building.
BobbieNell
As a white person, I was asking, "Where is the riot police? Where is the tear gas and flash bangs? Where are the water cannons? WTAF?"
ChalkCoatedDonut
They want them to take the capitol, its their dream of a pure white America where the rich gets richer and the poor can shoot whoever.
vicsan2000
A lady was shot and is confirmed dead. Just saw it on the news
RigoryMorty
4 dead now.
butsir
did people get shot by the police this summer when they destroyed the target? i dont remember that,

There's a modest group of people with one eye missing or brain damage from rubber bullets, but I don't recall any lethal gunfire.

Building their walls with handy climbing holds seems like a poor decision.
TrojanGiraffe
That’s like a v1 at best.
ProfessorChaos
Well if the border wall wasn’t already a good enough example, we’re apparently just really bad at building effective walls.
KirchoffsVoltageLaw
Police literally invited them in https://www.reddit.com/comments/krx7yw
kitaFalha
Thats because it looks faaaancy. Also because no one expected dumb shit like this to happen when designing the place =/
igoslow
yeah, especially when there’s like uh, stairs in the US Capital .... everywhere
ThomasThundersword
yeah this wall was never intended to be a defensive fortification. it was only ever decorative.
Doismellbacon
Just get medieval on their asses, pour your chamberpots over them! Or boiling oil...
Nathanyel
This is basically just for photos/posturing. There was a staircase some 50yd to the left. Wait, now I realize why they didn't use it...

Our government was built on overthrown governments. But we never thought the dumb asses would be next in line
LasciviousHedgehog
What government did you overthrow? You rebelled but you never overthrew King George.
Hoptimonium
His region government that ruled the colonies was overthrown. There were many loyalists who fought with the British
ProppaGanda
Chile, Panama, Nicaragua, Iran, Iraq, the list goes on

Oh lord, which South American country hasn’t the US overthrown? Maybe Belize? I can’t remember if the US trashed Belize at any point

the first thing that i thought when i saw that was that those walls would be smoothed out the next time i saw them.

I think a relatively small group of people are going to get a much needed reality check about how popular/many/strong they really are.

Bubba and Betty Sue are going to find out that the National Guard isn’t fucking around with them.

FYI Hitler had 44% of the popular vote. Trump got 47%. Hopefully this gets under control, but things could get messy...
IXIJoshua
Let’s not forget the maiming of protestors from the protests for civil rights. while Trumpets can get in the capital with little resistance
DarthProdigal
Yeah, try to cross a bridge in Alabama and get beaten. They roll out the red carpet at the capitol though if you're white I guess... 1 person dies and it's all they talk about. 1 person...

A woman was shot and killed.

Police shot and killed an unarmed protester during a day of mostly peaceful protests.

By Trumps calling for this type of protest and the way it is going, there should be no doubt he has committed treason.

Worst thing is i don't thing anything Will happen to trump

People conveniently choose to ignore the Nazi Party started as a "political movement" backing a radical leader, which became racially focusd

Only developmentally-delayed people don’t think he’s committed treason at this point. Humans can lie though and often for money

As a white person, I agree. The first thing I said to my wife was that if this was BLM the tear gas would be deployed instantly.
IhopeyougetstageIIIcoloncancer
DoD actually refused to send in the national guard. If an armed assault breaking into the capitol building doesn't merit it, what does??
peterloischrismegstewiebrian
My first thought actually was: I bet we won't see it unfolded like this if the protesters aren't white males.
MyleKeville
I can’t believe that this is a real picture.

Treason. Sedition. Traitors. Treat is as such, and act upon those that acted this out, and who support it.
sethr05
This does not meet the definition for treason.
Euchre
"the crime of betraying one's country, especially by attempting to kill the sovereign or overthrow the government" That's dictionary....
Euchre
...and here's the Constitution "Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them..." So, uh, how not?
DrinkToTheFoam
By definition I would put their actions under insurrection, and Trump's call for it under sedition.
IamJacksanxiety
Imagine. If 100 of those people had guns and were ready to attempt a coup, how easy that would be. How easy it would be to take over
MajorTom0101
Just becouse you get armed men into the main government facility doesent make a sucessfull coup.
BarryAllensSole
Point is - It's the fact they got IN to the CAPITOL. Seriously it was like watching a video game or movie like.. where are the cops?

There's still a military with way more weapons than them.

Sedition
MisanthropicAnthropoid
Which can be punishable by death.
flamingflamingo
I wish people would stop trying to throw the terror blanket term on everything.
Heavenissize17socks
We are so close to the plot of The Phantom Menace it's terrifying. We -would be justified- in charging these wackos with sedition.
flamingflamingo
Sedition is a fine term. I just get angry at everyone wanting to slap the terrorism label on every civil disturbance.
Heavenissize17socks
You're right. It's not terrorism, it's treason. They were planning on kidnapping, ransoming, then murderibg everyone inside.

"I want the people to know that they still have 2 out of 3 branches of the government working for them, and that ain't bad." D. Trump

Go find the video of the single police officer facing down a crowd of armed rioters and you fucking tell me that isn't terror.

They did, saw the video on the news this morning. She was already kn the building at that point, and was another Dump supporter behind 1/

So I’d say the original post still stands, considering if this was the BLM protests they would have been shot before entering.

her with an assault rifle. Im assuming she got shot as they aimed at the person with the rifle.

But still, these people think they're doing the right thing. Just trying to make sure voices of calm aren't considered "heroifiers."

They were by and large. They also never brought guns to rallies and shot people. Sorry babe, but they're not comparable. At all.
Antiriver133
IIRC a majority of non-peaceful BLM weren't even BLM protesters but a third party trying to incite violence.
TheSpeakerOfTheHouse
...and calling themselves BLM, which you're a part of if you say you are, because it's inclusive, not exclusive?
Antiriver133
Saying I'm a turtle doesn't make it true.
ImNotTaylorSwift
I heard a Republican Congressman claim that the violent people at the Capitol weren't actually Trump supporters, but outside agitators.

I'll try to find the name at some point, because these insurrectionists were always inside the building

Where's the burning businesses and courthouses? The burning cars? The autonomous zone? The explosives and bricks? The months of violence?

I am. That violence was initiated by the police and agitators like the boogaloo boys pretending to be protestors. It aint the same.

Protesting police violence and storming the Capitol while congress is in session to count electoral votes do not equate.
DarthProdigal
If they were black or brown "demonstrators" how would this have played out? I hate to call it "white privilege" but wtf else is armed men...
DarthProdigal
Who the police choose to let rampage for hours without contest? Trump is complicit. It's called deriliction of duty and negligence. At best.
DarthProdigal
People conveniently choose to ignore the Nazi Party started as a "political movement" backing a radical leader, which became racially focusd

The whole "white privilege" thing is really just putting a name to experiences, it's a whole gamut. The capitol stuff is just plain fascism.
revcleo
There is white privilege, but it's more white supremacy here. This is what people mean when saying police are white supremacists.
revcleo
As an organisation and individuals seems they've not seen anything wrong with the storming of the capitol versus a black woman sleeping.
MiguelCamino
None of them were armed, the cops used tear gas and flash bangs, and they shot a woman in the neck. How were they treated differently?
ThelmaTidwell
How were none of them armed when the police have reported they confiscated guns from these terrorists?!?

I haven't seen a single thing about them being armed. And how are they terrorists but the blm rioters in Portland weren't? They tried to/

seize a federal building as well. And when they couldn't, they tried to burn it down.
