US Capitol Police confirm death of officer after pro-Trump riot

Of course. It's become revenge justice being distributed unevenly and depending on which political side you're own. We'll see a great deal more of that during the next four years.

Nope. It's rounding up assholes who tried a coup and failed.

70+ arrests so far, including the asshole that was reading Pelosi's mail.
 
Sedition and terrorism is against the law. That's like saying that locking up someone for murder is "revenge justice". They killed a cop, they planted explosive devices in the Capital, they tried to prevent the certification of the Electoral votes. Together, these are acts of seditious domestic terrorism.
Yes, sedition and terrorism is against the law and must be proven in a court of law. Joe Biden hasn't even been sworn in yet and you're already convinced that people have already been charged, convicted. The US has been a free country with all citizens having the right to be heard fairly before a judge. Is that tradition about to be changed? I hope not.

We'll see what the judge says to 'they', if a lynch mob doesn't arrive first.
 
Damn. He looks pretty young.

They will still get trials. But good luck with that, the stupid bastards weren't even wearing masks and there's more film than anyone needs.
 
The country has suffered under four years of rioting, looting, assaults, murders, the destruction of public property, attacking the police and also 'defunding' them.

Which country? You're in Canada.

So justice seems to be prevailing. That's a good sign so far.
 
Riots are the voice of the unheard.

That wasn’t a riot, that was an insurrection. The people involved are traitors and terrorists.

Nice try defending them, though. You’re one of them.

Yes, rioting leftists are so much smarter by wearing masks while destroying small businesses, neighborhoods, murdering, assaulting, attacking the police, and so on. Children need heroes.

Making a lot of excuses for terrorists here. Charges are coming in, and they need to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Some folk may be OK with attacks against the Republic and our Democracy, but many others are not quite so sympathetic to domestic terrorists.
 
Anyone notice that the "stop the steal" woman who got shot climbing through the smashed out window at the capitol is the cults hero right now.

MAGA lives are more important.

To them, the policeman merely died trying to prevent the cult from "saving America", he probably got in their way.

If you're going to have an insurrection and masks are actually required, let alone allowed, you have to be profoundly retarded not to wear one.

I have made no excuse for any terrorist and never have and never will. Let's just stick to facts rather than fantasies.

There was no woman shot while crawling through a window. Where'd you hear that?
 
This little thing called the United States of America.
And a wonderful place it was before, encouraged by outside influences, you decided to attack each other.

The only way America could be defeated was from within and your enemies, and everyone else, knew that. It has been the Superpower.

The riots will continue, injustices, real or perceived, will be violently protested and, as we can see easily on this thread and website, Americans are already baying for blood of their fellow citizens. This will continue to be encouraged.

We always rise above and put down insurrections and right the ship even when people are trying to buy and sell little kids.

Our best days are always ahead of us because there are way more good people then evil people.
 


You saw a woman crawling through a window on that video? Then you're delusional. Another shows her standing still to one side. She was shot by someone on the other side of the window. You can see the gun pointed in her direction. It is a real tragedy.
 
In this case it was the voice of the deluded being led by the deluded.

That fact is not in dispute, the point seems to be that when a private business is the target (pun intended) of folks serving themselves up some reparations (looting) for alleged ‘systemic racism’ (possibly in another city) that the perps are given free reign to do so (with police assigned to protect city hall or other government structures ‘in case’ they are attacked).

Once the “should government agents take action to stop a crime in progress?” test is changed from “is the act criminal?” to “was the motive possibly justifiable as seen by the MSM?” or “is the target public property?”, then we have a criminal “just us” system rather than than a criminal justice system.

I expect that I will be accused of whataboutism, that important (rich and powerful?) victims could have been harmed in the case of the capital invasion and/or (usually) only property damage results from (most) looting and arson during riots, but the point is the difference in what is seen as a criminal act worthy of police using force (up to and including deadly force) to stop a crime in progress.
