Trump Supporters Gathering in D.C. - Mayor Readies for Those ‘Seeking Confrontation’

[luthervol]

Radical in my mind would be motivated, malignant, confrontation conspiracy theorists.

Not the benign type which likes to converse on the grassy knoll in Dallas.

Still 95%?

Yes.
When I was out getting lunch today, the car radio was on an AM station, I think it was Rush's normal time slot. I listened for about 15 minutes and it was straight up lies and conspiracies the whole time.....being presented and accepted as the absolute truth. It's that audience who I'm talking about. (The people who think the election was stolen crowd)

"Incalculable damage to our democratic system"

Lol. What karen wrote this?

Those in the system who protect the system and hold the system in the highest esteem. They must embellish the impact, concern, and cost. Threats to the system must be extinguished.

The Secret Service and Capital Police have carte blanche to protect elected officials anywhere but especially federal property. The door was clearly barricaded with them behind it, it was 100% deadly force is authorized due to the circumstances.
My point was even if he "panicked and shot her" it's still a legal justified shooting according to federal laws

You might want to read their ROE and Use of Force policy, if you can find it.

Still waiting on someone, anyone, to explain to me how that stack of officers that was in the crowd managed to get out of there without being harmed.

If the protesters were planning to “hurt” someone, why didn’t they take advantage of superior numbers and direct access to those officers?

 

[carlos86]

Well there goes that argument.

Do you have actual proof of the "stack of officers"? And i stand by that federal officers have carte blanche to protect an active threat (perceived or real) of Congress/President/VP etc.

You may not like it, but that's 100% reality

 

[hog88]

Well there goes that argument.

I believe it's been irrefutably proven over the last few years that the FBI lies.

Show me that law.

The Justice Department stated that documents and information was stolen from ransacked offices.

 

[C-south]

Well there goes that argument.

Of course they don’t. The machine isn’t gonna do anything to jeopardize itself.

 

[Rickyvol77]

and there's no vast right wing conspiracy like Hillary stated in the 90's was out to get the Clinton's

he was a young'in awaiting for his dad to get back from buying cigarettes back then

 

[NorthDallas40]

Stupid statement and more political theater. “Safeguards” are always in place and nobody is gonna let a nuke fly if Trump gets up off the can at midnight and decides “F Xi I’m gonna show that MFer a lesson”

 

[allvol123]

The Justice Department stated that documents and information was stolen from ransacked offices.

Documents with codes to break the democratic system?

 

[hog88]

The Justice Department stated that documents and information was stolen from ransacked offices.

So our elected officials are guilty of violating security rules and protocol? Should we prosecute them?

 

[luthervol]

Orange man hurt your feewings again by not conceding?

It's you who were claiming the left was not doing the things necessary to heal.
I was just pointing out how disingenuous that was.

 

[Rickyvol77]

Yes.

lol you were actually that audience too...i think that liberals watch Fox and listen to Rush more than actual conservatives do

They are clearly visible on the video. They are on the right side against the wall.

We are just going to have to disagree on this one, brother. I am of the mindset that just because it is “legal“ does not always mean it is the right thing to do. I believe there were other options here. I believe there was a complete failure by the outer perimeter to stop the protesters there. There was ample advance warning of the size and approach of this crowd.

There were multiple failures here by the authorities. Unfortunately, the last one they made cost someone their life. That’s never OK with me.

He wasnt asked if there were Antifa people there.

Plenty of videos out there showing just that.

 

[PointGuard]

I have a carry permit. You are not allowed to use deadly force unless someone has access, intent, and ability. Even if they have a weapon, if they turn and retreat I cannot use deadly force. I ask you to watch the video and you didn't. If you had, you would've seen the police outside the door with her unconcerned and casually walking back down the stairs. It was clearly murder.

Are you sure she didn’t have a knife in her car? Or how about if she didn’t obey the cop in the first instance she got what she deserved? Or how about I go the the George thread and all the other black’s murdered threads and come up with 20 or 30 more equally absurd retorts the right has put forward to justify the inappropriate killings of black. See how it goes both ways

5 lives were taken in this insurrection. There needs to be accountability for each of them. Hopefully it won’t match the recent Kenosha announcement re Blake that “no charges will be brought against The cop who shot Blake in the back 7 or 8 times”

 

[evillawyer]

Well there goes that argument.

The next move for any conspiracy theorist will be "Of course, the FBI is in on it too!" The theory will just expand to incorporate evidence of what appears to be a refutation to instead be evidence of a much broader conspiracy. That's how they always work. Watch your responses, and I guarantee you this is what you'll see.

 

[hog88]

We going to prosecute those that left them unsecured?
