My question is this:
What do you think the outcome of the 1/6 "incident" (avoiding "insurrection", call it what you want) would have have been if Guns were openly allowed at the 1/6 Rally at the capitol?
You can see why I am specifically asking Patriotic people. Obviously, for those who openly believe the only path is to overthrow our government, they'd want more guns there to achieve their goals. I don't need to ask that question.
But for everyone else. Whether you believe the election was stolen or not. Whether you believe Trump wanted Chaos or that he tried to avoid it, whether you support Trump, Biden, someone else, or nobody, let's have a serious discussion about what might have happened if a large percentage of people at the capitol on that day were armed with handguns, rifles, shotguns or other firearms.
And to be totally transparent: The point I'm getting to is that "some restrictions" make sense to me. I THINK it would have been worse if many of those people were armed. I understand that HOW MANY restrictions is still a very subjective topic, and won't be agreed upon.
But for now, what do you think would have happened if those people were legally armed on that day, in that place, in that situation?
Discuss.... (Try not to attack me, I'm asking for a discussion. If you disagree with anything said here, "fine", but be civil and I'll try to do the same.)  |
Nothing. It would not have been any different. Most of them were QAnon idiots, or boomers (or both). What happened on that day has been blown ridiculously out of proportion. I suppose the idiots in the MSM didn't bother to show you these 'horrible' people casually walking past the police - one even asked if they were allowed to go in there, and the police barely mumbled 'no', but not a damn one of those cops spoke up loudly saying, 'You can't come in here!' The police were simply allowing them to come in.
Or maybe they didn't show you how the majority of them were walking between the ropes, strolling around, not even causing any issues. They simply walked in, calmly, and then stood there, calmly. Then, someone in the crowd told everyone to go back outside. A chunk of them were still in the building, by the door, because people went outside, and then stood there right at the opening, making it impossible for those still inside to come back outside.
And then you had a little 'team' of them who decided to go down some hallway, and you had one person who decided that closed doors with chairs and whatever else in front of them was not a good enough sign that hey, maybe you should not bust through the window and try to climb in there.
We all know what happened to her.
But, the MAJORITY of them weren't doing anything. The majority who showed up for the rally didn't even go inside. Of those who went inside, the majority of those didn't do jack spit.
It was a handful of morons, not all being actual Trump supporters, who did stupid things like put their feet on Pelosi's desk, or take a letter or whatever it was they took, or a couple of idiots going into one of the rooms used by Congress - and they did what, exactly, while they were in there? They...get this...SAT down.
Wow. How dangerous.
There were some idiots climbing up walls, and some idiots pushing their way through, but I don't for a second think they were all 'Trump supporters', or even a majority of them.
There was a flyer going around online, in red and yellow - looked like a flyer from Communist China, not something a 'God fearing, pick up truck driving hayseed' who loves America would ever print out. No patriot would EVER use those colors on a flyer. Pantifa would, or some other useless ensemble of stench ridden twits on the left. They absolutely would.
The flyer was going around, and people were warned - don't go there, this is a massive set up, long before the day of the event.
I don't think anything different would have happened by any Trump supporter - and I mean a real one, not some ahole wearing what he thinks a Trump supporter would wear - cause there were some phonies there, and they were easy to pick out.
See, on that day, I had a feeling something was going to happen BECAUSE of that Communist China looking flyer. And I used to go a channel on DLive - the person running the channel is...really good at getting footage in various places. He's even posed as antifa himself, and videod them, without them knowing, during their Brianna Taylor marches.
So, on January 6th, 2021, I watched the entire events, from multiple camera angles, because the room I was in on DLive had cameras up all over the place.
I'll bet the useless MSM didn't bother to show you multiple camera angles at the same time. (And when I say 'multiple', I mean, over 20 running at the same time on the screen.) Because the majority of what was going on was mild and rather boring.
But, what is the point of the 'what if' game, when you have a propaganda machine convincing everyone that it was 'dangerous' and people's lives were 'threatened', and telling people that every last one of them was a Trump supporter, and that Trump told them to do it.
What is the point?
The propaganda machine wrote their story, the brain dead who never even try to think for themselves, never ask questions, never use any type of critical thinking, ever,
WANT it to be what the media told them, instead of what it really was.
If those people truly wanted to cause a serious problem, they would have done so, and you all would know what a true 'insurrection' is.
But, they didn't do that.
By the way, I can guarantee you that Trump supporters all over the country:
a) do not look like what you think a Trump supporter looks like
and
b) are concealed carrying right next to you, and you would never know it.
