Those that got into the capitol.should be charged with treason and given life in prison

A message must be sent that we will never tolerate a violent attack on our government
 
holy hyperbole batman

okay....

we can do that as soon as we round up all of the people who rioted over the past year, line them up against the wall, and put bullets in their brains

makes about as much sense, right?

jhfc....what a moronic thing to say

No that is hyperbole. But when you attack Congress when they are attempting to perform their constitutional duties you engage in treason

What is it called when you forcibly take over parts of cities?

Storming Congress to interrupt the transition of government is just a teensy bit worse than rioting in Portland.

Treason probably doesn’t fly but insurrection or sedition do. And if convicted put them in a deep dark hole for a long time. And if Trump doesn’t pardon himself he should be the first to go down.

Legally you may be right. Insurrection is probably the correct charge. But I want them in prison for life

It's not treason. What they engaged in, along with Trump, and their congressional enablers, is sedition and insurrection.

Not really, just hypocritical bullshit that EVERYONE has come to expect from the left.

So you really don’t see a different between protesters committing crimes while protesting in a city and people being incited and then attempting to impede the transfer of power from one President to the next? You really truly believe those acts are equivalent?

And if you do you believe the former excuses the latter? Really?

And I'm not on the left.

You are correct. I stand corrected.

I still want life sentences

Liberals hate democracy and they hate the people. This is your future folks. Any dissent will be the death penalty or concentration camps, that's what the liberals want. They are worse than you think (and I know you think very badly of them).
 
they committed serious crimes, and those crimes were documented on film. in many states, at the very least, that will likely result in them no longer being allowed to own boomy bangers.
