Two of my friends have neighbors who both fly the trump flag in their yards. Both said that their neighbors took them down yesterday.

I chose "other" because your framing of the issue is utterly insane. The rioters this summer were allowed to riot with impunity. The premise of your argument is 180 degrees ass backwards.

WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!!

You are being lied to and led on a leash!!
Lol, you are the one who should wake up.

Do you realize that pictures/selfies are everywhere? Do you understand that various names have already been released? The FBI has an abundance of evidence. So, yeah, wake up.

Many of the rioters are so stupid that they are proudly posting their adventures in the capital on facebook....The FBI are now busy harvesting those posts as we post.

Yep the local "Patriots" groups where I live are now furiously scrubbing their social media accounts after bragging about going to DC on Wednesday. Too late, losers.

Just read that the moron with his feet on Pelosi's desk has been arrested.

Seems her laptop is missing as well as some documents.

The guy with the horns and the KKK tattoo, the one who wore his job badge on a neck lanyard while committing felonies on camera, ... while these oddballs get a lot of attention, the guys in black with the zip-tie flex cuffs caught my eye.

What if they had been able to grab Pence? They were certainly looking for him.

Or Pelosi?

Or anyone they had a grudge against.

This could have gone way worse in a hurry.

One of the many sad things that comes from the storming of our Capitol Building, is that we have shown the world just how many ignorant people our country has, that perhaps we're not the best country in the world. So sad!!
That's one of the problems. America is not the best country in the world, it never has been. To even start to fix things, Americans need to start acknowledging that their country has many serious problems many with their roots that are centuries old:
systemic racism and sexism, an antiquated election system, a political system that caters to the wishes of the rich and corporations, millions of people in a wealthy country relying on food stamps and food stamps just to survive, a public school system that obviously doesn't teach critical, independent thinking, deteriorating infrastructure, a bloated military that is omnipresent in so many other countries telling them what to do instead of worrying about internal order....the list goes on and on. I've always thought of the U.S. as a sullied, rapacious, brutal, destructive, corrupt, greedy country. Great place for white men, not so great for the rest of us.
