The first sentence of your article is a hyperlink that says "new information has emerged" and the link takes you to another page that says the first page is bullshit. Good one.

Bud, this is why this whole thread blew up. There was nothing found saying he was hit with a fire extinguisher. Apparently the guy was talking to family members the night of January 6th. Nothing about a fire extinguisher. I’ve heard stuff about bear spray.

Actually it blew up because some of you are proving my point that you side with terrorists over democratic principles

I agree, there is a lot of explaining that needs to be done. As to people blocking any sort of investigation that’s nonsense. Garland could initiate this today.

As far as people being held accountable, I just heard on the news yesterday that Elizabeth Warren is upset because some of these folks are being held in solitary confinement without even being convicted.

I agree, there absolutely needs to be an investigation. I would also like to see the justification for the woman being shot and why the shooters name has been withheld.

There's video. She attempted to break into congress through a barricaded door while congress was in session....The definition of Fück around and find out.

Man, I think if that is your standard for cops shooting people then there really shouldn’t be too many protests anymore.

Officer injured in Capitol riot criticizes politicians who continue to downplay attack

“I don’t know how you can watch my body-worn camera footage and deny that Jan. 6 was anything other than violent and brutal," Officer Michael Fanone said.

Yes, definitely since you lump the tens of thousands gathering in DC that day with the couple hundred that did bad things. But maybe can't comprehend that

There will be over 500 arrests before this is over. Incited by our terrorist, traitorous former President.

Actually you’re defeating your own argument. You couldn’t name a person killed originally. Then when you finally did you were proven wrong.

Also what types of terrorists don’t have weapons? I believe (correct me if I’m wrong) but the FBI didn’t confiscate any weapons from the people who entered the capitol.

I think you have to agree, it may have been the lamest “Terrorist Attack” ever

Edit: if it was what you are making of it, I don’t have much hope in our government on many levels.

People died protecting the Capitol against MAGA terrorists. I know where you stand.

One had a stoke, another a heart attack, and I believe two suicides via drug overdose.

I stand on common sense, you......well I’m not exactly sure where you’re at.

I'm assuming you're trolling. Attacking government officials is going to get you shot.

So what point are you trying to make, that since no one specifically died from a cause from the rioters this is ok, let alone the injuries that were caused by the rioters, the damage to the capital, the damage to the U.S. reputation and the fact that we have individuals in the republican party promoting and still minimizing what these individuals did. The equivalent to you is someone raiding your house trashing it, injuring one of your kids and taking some of your things - the assailants had zip ties, some had guns and some were threatening to hang your wife, on a much grander scale. Then some people in the police dept saying no one was really injured that bad, we really aren't going to push this. Are you really OK with this, otherwise your looking like a rather insensitive and uneducated individual.

I’m being practical. A self induced drug overdose isn’t murder.

It was trespassing, potentially assault if proven.

If that's the case then I expect to see charges and convictions for Trump for terrorism, incitement of a riot, and for being a traitor.

Fair enough, tell your wife if the same occurrence happened at your house with the situation I described that you think the assailants should only get trespassing, maybe assault if they can prove the bad guys really hit your child and make sure he didn't fall down the steps and cause his own injury.

I will make sure to tell her that bunsen82 said this.

 

[mnole03]

Yes, it was a coincidence he had a stroke the day after being beaten by a mob. Probably would have happened to the guy anyway since he was so old....

This is like the textbook example of why we have the felony murder rule. We don’t need to argue about whether it was murder. It was.

One of the cops died of a self inflicted drug overdose?

 

[swagsurfer02]

To be more specific, I believe it was amphetamine overdose.

Until last summer, I'd never seen this "so and so died from natural causes during or immediately following an extremely violent confrontation, not from the confrontation" line the right has thrown around since George Floyd and now the Capitol insurrection in my entire life. Probably people couldn’t imagine saying something so ridiculous out loud until 2020.

Sure Swag. Those cops would've died anyway. Sure. We're totally taking what we saw with our own eyes out of context.

[FlickShagwell]

It’s the same principle as the right’s stance on covid. “You don’t die FROM covid. You die WITH covid.” “You don’t die FROM (bear spray, tasers, being bludgeoned by an American flag, having a cop kneel on your neck for 9 minutes)...”

Well when you’re told someone was clubbed with a fire extinguisher and that’s not exactly the truth. Color me skeptical.

Sure people died from COVID but it’s pretty safe to say that all of them didn’t. I’m still waiting to hear about the bear spray killing this officer. If that what is ruled by the coroner, absolutely lock them up.

The kneeling on the neck thing for 9 minutes isn’t true either. Did you not watch any of the trial? Come on flick you’re better than....nevermind

The trial of the guy who kneeled on a guy’s neck and was convicted of murder?

Have you ever had even one intelligent thought, Swag?

He'd likely be alive if not for the insurrection. My dad would not have had the stroke if not for the test.

Leave “Camp Auschwitz” guy and his well-meaning ne’er-do-well buddies alone. After all, they didn’t kill anybody!

Yup that’s the one. The same trial that had the defense ask for a change of venue and where the judge said there may be reasons for an appeal. We both know what would’ve happened had that verdict back any differently. It’s sad.

We impute his death to crime.

You’ve carried water for a convicted murderer and domestic terrorists in this thread. And I’ll venture a guess that you aren’t done yet.

Hundreds of these desecrations stormed the Captiol, desecrated it, injured dozens of officers including cutting off fingers and heart attacks occurring and we are critiquing this event now? What the ****?!

They cut off fingers?

They cut off fingers?

I saw severed fingers in past possibly incorrect but the documented injuries horrific enough
