For an event that occurred 5.5 years ago on Jan 6, Democrats have been fixated ever since. It is really much older than 2021 because, without using that word, they began their campaign against DJT in 2014, upon his firing from NBC's "The Apprentice."

"Insurrection" became the qualifier of all Democrat complaints about DJT once Jan 6 was in the headlines.


What is ignored among the woke [Democrats, that is], is that after all the investigations and trials over Jan 6, not a single person, in particular not DJT, but also not one among hundreds of indicted individuals by a rabid Justice Dept, were ever convicted of

i-n-s-u-r-r-e-c-t-i-o-n.


So why do Democrats insist it is an active, accurate word to apply to their 12-year cry of "Foul!" against DJT, and anybody who happened to have voted for him as if voting incorrectly [by their assessment] is suddenly felonious treason?


You think it is no longer said? This is Sunday. Lots of opinion TV on this day, every week. Democrats still use the word, specifically, even just today. Fixated. Also woke, which is past tense.

It is on video called for an insurrection to stop the election from certifying the winner. The declared winner was Biden in the 2020 elections.

Just because they weren't convicted of insurrection don't mean it wasn't correct? I could see trump not guilty but the rioters were guilty of a textbook definition of it right?

In fact, no, the rioters were NOT guilty of insurrection purely based on there being no convictions for insurrection in hundreds of cases, and damn the "textbook," whatever it is, which is apparently completely unfamiliar with court proceedings and results of trials. There is that court evidence, and it is written records. See your law library.


So, how do you, whom I presume is in favor of due process, presume to call anyone guilty when their trials did not find them guilty of insurrection? Guilty of other crime[s], yes, but insurrection is, after all, its own crime, statute, indictment, and trial outcome in all of the Jan 6 cases. Sorry.


When Trump, himself, is tried and convicted for insurrection, you can hoot from the rooftop. I'll even let you use my roof.

Trump pardoned the insurrectionist and Eve wants to compensate them. So he could use them as his private army.

It is easily confirmed the rioters had firearms and other weapons:


"However, court records show, opens new tab at least five cases where carrying or possessing a firearm was part of the indictment. A summary, opens new tab of the cases by the Justice Department as of Jan. 3 said 180 defendants were charged with entering a restricted area with a dangerous or deadly weapon, which includes firearms and other types of weapons."

OJ wasnt convicted of murder either. By your logic, he didn't do it in spite of the de facto confession his book "If I did it" represented and being found civilally liable for the deaths.


That is some weak rationale.


An insurrection is a violent uprising by a group of people against their own government. That happened on Jan 6. The definition of insurrection does not include the word "conviction".

Hmmmm, Officer Brian Sicknick: A U.S. Capitol Police officer who was attacked and sprayed with a chemical substance by rioters during the defense of the Capitol. He suffered two strokes and passed away the following evening.

yeah I had a feeling one of you would jump to correct me before I posted that. So go ahead and tell me, how many of them discharged their firearms?

And yet, you posted the disinformation anyway.

Why? Use of firearms is not required for something to be considered an insurrection. Plus, there were firearms AND other weapons which were used.


"Roughly 174 of those 608 were charged with using a deadly or dangerous weapon or otherwise causing serious injury to an officer."

Why it is an insurrection, the rioters were sent to Capital Hill to stop the certification of the election result by Trump because he lost to Biden. Biden was to be declared the winner of the 2020 presidential election.

Five and a half years is nothing, I understand there are whack jobs out there still fixated on Al Gore for God's sake.

Trump is fixated about his loss and still does not accept it. He wants to change the voting rights to see that it never happens again even though it was certified under his government.

MAGA can't accept election results if white votes count the same as people of color votes, Trump is a white vote supremacist, counting the votes of people of color, LGBTQ, and Democrats is election fraud.

Well, civil isn't criminal, and since insurrection is a felony, that makes it only a criminal indictment and conviction.

But then, it was the LA DA [Gil Garcetti] who insisted on an inner-city trial. [he did not try the case], whereas had the trial been conducted in Brentwood, where OJ lived, where the mureder occurred, and where I once lived - and, in fact, the condos where Nicole once lived on Bundy Dr was once the house I grewup in, plus three other houses that were leveled to build the condos. So I know the neighborhood intimately and can predict how that trial in Brentrwood would have concluded. Uhhh... not not guilty.

According to Trump's speech transcript, he sent attendees to the Capitol to "peacefully assemble" to protest, just as the Constitution allows citizens to protest.

MAGA can't accept election results


How does an acronym do anything, let alone "accept election results?" Just wondering how an object displays that kind of intelligence. What are individuals to you? Grouptrhink? And, is questi0oning election results illegal, accordoing to you? You have obviously not accepted Trump's election. Either one of them.

Yep, MAGA's hostility towards minorities is a matter of jealousy...well, that and penis envy.

Alex Pretti kicking an established government car and violently grabbing an established law authority.


Technically, he was killed before he could go to trial as an actual insurrectionist.

We caught the Jan 6 insurrectionist on video. We also have Trump on video inciting them to fight fight the certification of the elections where he lost and Biden won.
