If you don't think the goal was violent insurrection then what, specifically, do you think the people were doing there?

They were protesting just fine outside of Congress, why did they go into congress? Why were they trying to find Nancy Pelosi? Why did the Capitol police think they needed to use deadly force?




> "Why did the Capitol police think they needed to use deadly force?"

Might have had something to do with the violent death threats some of the invading fools were shouting…


Yes, that’s definitely the implication


Why did that dude dress up in face paint and a Buffalo hide? I don’t know and suppose the answer wouldn’t be coherent anyway.

Why do people protest anything? Nothing changes. It’s a futile effort.

Why did that capitol cop shoot that lady thru a window? Cops gunna cop and they always lie about it afterwards. Probably needs de-escalation training.
