Yes…the sheople of our country have clearly identified themselves.

Indeed they have.

Republicans aren’t interested in taking domestic terrorist threats seriously; they’re too busy electing them to Congress.

Right wing domestic terror is always the major terror threat in this country.

Just arrested a guy from West Virginia by the Capitol with a Sig Sauer and 20 rounds.

Like 90% of domestic terrorism is right wing domestic over the last year. After a lost election and all the disinformation campaigns throwing gas on that fire of course it’s going to get DHS advisory.

The 71 year old who was just arrested by the Capitol was deep into the MAGA, Stop The Steal and to a lesser extent QAnon, went to the Capitol on the 6th but left before the insurrection.

You need to read your own cites more carefully.

The alert said there had been mounting threats since last year from domestic violent extremists motivated by Covid-19 restrictions, Biden’s defeat of Donald Trump in the November election, police brutality and illegal immigration.

Question for you…to which groups do you think what I bolded is referring?

PurpnGold:

What happened at the Capitol is fake? Well that’s interesting

What happened wasn’t an “insurrection”. How many hundreds were shot by these insurrectionists? How many buildings were burned and destroyed? You’ve been played by the shepherds my friend and I don’t find that interesting at all. You’re better than that.

Dictionary

in·sur·rec·tion

/ˌinsəˈrekSH(ə)n/

noun

a violent uprising against an authority or government.

This event was violent (5 dead, property destroyed, and violence we have all seen on screen from the event). It was an uprising against the government. Like it or not, this was an insurrection.

“Hundreds shot” is not a requirement to fulfill the definition of an insurrection.

It wasn’t armed. That might be the big difference.

Smyrna:

The act of rising against civil authority or governmental restraint; specifically, the armed resistance of a number of persons to the power of the state; incipient or limited rebellion.

This.

As the DHS advisory says, the Capitol insurrection in and of itself is a mobilizing and motivating event. Right wing extremists in the US saw that and are emboldened.

Maybe you can tell me what violent riots from Trump supporters in last couple days that caused this terrorist alert?

Or maybe what evidence they have since they clearly said they had none.

Go…

Are you under the misapprehension that the MI plotters were the only ones of their ilk? That no other people shared their views? Perhaps kudos to law enforcement is in order for stopping that one and perhaps some respect is due for their knowledge about potential new attacks. It is their job, to monitor these things.

5 dead

No. You don’t get to claim the ones killed by their own stupidity. Last count I had was two.

Hoopla from the left.

PeterGriffin · 2021-01-28T18:02:09.257Z

Who was armed? A whole lot of them. They weren’t there to debate or ask questions. They were there to interrupt a Constitutional process and were successful at it. They were less successful at their attempts to apprehend and execute members of the government but that seems like dumb luck, if you research it a little using credible sources it easily could have happened.

The Hill – 16 Jan 21

Police seized alarming number of weapons on Capitol rioters, court documents...

Police have seized an alarming number of guns from President Trump’s supporters who descended on Washington, D.C., last week and stormed the Capitol in an effort to stop Congress’s…

conan · 2021-01-28T18:03:59.109Z

“DHS does not have any information to indicate a specific, credible plot,” it said.

“However, violent riots have continued in recent days and we remain concerned that individuals frustrated with the exercise of governmental authority and the presidential transition… could continue to mobilize a broad range of ideologically-motivated actors to incite or commit violence.”

DHS clearly said they have no such specific information.

Secondly please post any riots from Trump supporters in recent days? Clearly we would have heard of em from left-wing media.

Go…post all those riots in last few days.

It wasn’t ransacked in 1812, it was burned.

And there have been much worse incidents since.

Like what?

Most of them. Even if they were mostly field expedient weapons.

The key to the definition is “rising against…” or another definition “revolt against established authority…”

Not the type of arms they used. They killed a police officer and not with their bare hands.

Students throwing rocks is an insurrection if they are revolting against established authority of the state.

Was this an;

A. insurrection
B. mostly peaceful protest or
C. a summer of love
?

I see. So it scared the ■■■■ out of em and now anyone and everyone is threat to society.

Never mind the fact that American people had suffered for more terrorism from left-wing groups throughout our country.

BTW…if they have half of ■■■■■■■ brain they would know they have sent a message and went home peacefully.

It’s nothing more then our government needing and enemy to exist…and now half of American people are their enemy.

Maybe we need another foreign war I guess…so they won’t wage war on American peop

Hoave of americans are planning violence? Sounds hyperbolic to me.
