It was a response to the overthetop instigation by the CP (and probably FBI plants) who threw incendiary objects into the crowd that included children that incited anger in many of the legal protestors that day.
It was not an insurrection in any shape way or form and it’s a disgusting shame of this nation what has happened to the J6 political prisoners who NONE have been charged with insurrection but ALL have been denied their basic civil rights.
The current Democrat Party are the insurrectionists who are destroying the country.
Arguably so. And it was done by a small crowd from among the hundreds of thousands who showed up that day – akin to the argument that it was only a small proportion of the BLM protesters who actually rioted during the summer of love.
Note that part of the argument proposed in the OP is that the American Revolution was an over the top response to over-the-top abuse by the British government.
I don’t have the time to read the entire thread, so perhaps my question has already been answered. Our founding fathers were not “American”, correct? They were British subjects engaged in a revolution. Jan 6 was a handful of AMERICANS engaged in what? A revolution? No, they were there because they were lied to and believed those proven lies wholeheartedly.
Our founding fathers revolted for the freedoms we still enjoy today.
Jan 6 peeps revolted for…an election loss?
