National Guard time. These are not peaceful protests. Storming the capitol? Pffft trump supporters are treasonous lunatics.

j/c With 80+ percent of Republicans (Trump supporters) now saying the election was illegitimate and some now calling for the suspension of democracy and or violence... I think the smart thing to do is prepare for bloodshed. I doubt it becomes a civil war because there are no lines on the battlefield that can be drawn to seperate them from the rest of us who respect the laws and tenets of democracy. Wanting legal votes thrown out because your guy didn't win is pure autocracy. Calling for electors to vote against the wishes of the people is dictator-like autocracy. And with the threatening gun toting protestors, the intimidation of public figures on both sides of the aisle via threats, and the lunatic political calls for people to stand up for trump even if it costs your life... violence is coming.
My only hope is that it is contained and limited to a small incident, but I don't think we can stop it from happening at this point. I disagree with OCD often and I sometimes think he's somewhat extreme. But I will give him credit where credit is due. He posted this on December 9th and nobody can claim he didn't see this coming.

I'd honestly rather be thought of as crazy than see this unfolding. IMHO, it was easy to see coming, and the lack of preparedness was planned as well if you ask me. Trump is lighting the powder keg.

Objection toward counting the votes from Arizona just went through to the applause of some reps and senators. I knew it was coming, but goodness, it's still sickening. Well their side believes the United States Constitution was subverted. Because it was ignored, with the ignoring of state legislatures all through this election cycle.

It might help if GOP reps and senators give Trump a visit and and tell him that he's done, now. Time for the transition to begin, by taking all powers away from him.
Is there anyone in doubt that Trump, with access to our nukes is now a threat to our country?
Time for Trump to go!

It's why I've been saying for a long time now that liberals should arm themselves. It wasn't a joke or something I said lightly. Someone has to stand up fro Democracy. And at this point, if not us, who? I'm not planning at this time to take to the streets. But seeing what I'm seeing now, I reserve the right to change my mind at any point on the future.

So NOW they're concerned about uninformed troops? We all know who is in charge of the pentagon right now. If an attempted coup isn't reason to call them out, there will never be a reason.

This is stupid.
I was against Antifa and BLM violence. And I'm against this right wing violence.

I can't even imagine being that guy trying to face down that mob of animals.
I hope the National Guard comes in with bulldozers.

I may not see what is going on.
If they don't want to pay attention to the United States Constitution, and if they want to ignore the votes of over 100 million Americans, and try to tell everyone an outright LIE of the election results,
What would you expect to happen.
I wonder what the adjective politicians are going to say the next time they hold congress.
Actually I don't give a dang what they say. So many congressionals are unelected propaganda artists.
OH, USA has 50 states and 300 million people but one tiny dot votes Nanci Pelosi for 25 years, (that's what I mean by unelected)
It's a shame, it's a real shame, but, Nov. 3rd 2020 brought this about.
Can Deshaun Watson play better for the Browns, than Baker Mayfield would have? ... Now the Games count.

This Is a CoupAn armed mob has stormed the U.S. Capitol, using violence to stop the lawful certification of the Electoral College vote. Armed assailants are attacking the seat of American government in an attempted coup, urged on by the president of the United States. Saying that feels melodramatic, ridiculous, and overwrought, but there’s no plainer way to describe what is currently unfolding. Tens of thousands of supporters of outgoing President Donald Trump gathered in Washington, D.C., where he encouraged them to attend a rally as Congress began to ceremonially certify the Electoral College victory of President-elect Joe Biden. After a speech by the president, protesters overran security at the Capitol building, which seemed unprepared for the onslaught. They knocked over barricades, pushed past cordons of officers, and broke windows. Some carried Confederate battle flags as they got much closer to the heart of the U.S. government than any Confederate troops ever did. Certification was halted. The Senate and House chambers were locked down, Vice President Mike Pence was whisked away, and demonstrators roamed the halls of Congress. Tear gas was reportedly released inside the Capitol Rotunda, and members were told to don gas masks under their seats. This attempted coup is Trump’s fault. “This is what the president has caused today, this insurrection,” Mitt Romney told a reporter. It will not work—police may have been unprepared, but they will regain their footing. Those involved in the attack can and should be held responsible, but the president bears the ultimate blame. He has spent two months insisting to his supporters that the election was stolen in an undemocratic fraud. This is not true—the claim has been conclusively debunked and rejected in court after court. RECOMMENDED READING An illustration of a gavel with the Constitution text behind it. America Is Nearing the End of Law ROBERT BLACK Trump appears with congressional Republicans at the White House. Trump Lost Everything for the Republicans DAVID A. GRAHAM An illustration of Joe Biden with 50 red dots and 50 blue dots. The Problem With a 50–50 Senate YASCHA MOUNK The participants in the coup ought to know better, but they have been lied to by the president of the United States. If what Trump was saying were true, members of Congress would have a patriotic duty to do all they could to save the election, and his supporters would have a patriotic duty to defend the rightful government. But Trump has lied repeatedly and brazenly, practically commanding his supporters to mount an uprising, and now they have done as he asked. As the chaos spread, Trump’s son Donald Trump Jr. tweeted, “This is wrong and not who we are.” But this is exactly who the members of the Trump clique are. The president and his circle have mounted a four-year assault on the rule of law, and this is the logical end of both that tendency and the president’s specific words. Indeed, even as his son was trying to calm tempers, the president continued to whip them up. Trump raged at Pence, who said he did not have the power to overturn the vote: [quote]Mike Pence didn’t have the courage to do what should have been done to protect our Country and our Constitution, giving States a chance to certify a corrected set of facts, not the fraudulent or inaccurate ones which they were asked to previously certify. USA demands the truth! Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump · 1h Mike Pence didn’t have the courage to do what should have been done to protect our Country and our Constitution, giving States a chance to certify a corrected set of facts, not the fraudulent or inaccurate ones which they were asked to previously certify. USA demands the truth! He added, in another tweet, “Please support our Capitol Police and Law Enforcement. They are truly on the side of our Country. Stay peaceful!” He did not, however, call on protesters to leave. Trump himself is not present. Earlier today, he said he would march to the Capitol with his supporters, but instead he retreated to the White House, preferring not to get his hands dirty. For four years, Trump’s critics have been accused of hysteria and hyperbole for describing his movement as fascist, authoritarian, or lawless. Today, as Congress attempts to certify the election of a new president, the president has vindicated those critics. In attempting this coup, Trump has also vindicated the Americans who voted decisively in November to remove him from office. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2021/01/attempted-coup/617570/

For some reason that sentence sounds a little harsher than vandalism or destruction of property. Not that both aren't wrong because they are. It just goes to show that according to the law not every crime is treated as being equal.
There are varying degrees of crimes which call for different levels of punishment.
