Leah Barkoukis  |  Jan 06,2021 4:15 PM

 

[...]  Sharing a photo of a bare-chested man wearing horns standing with other individuals inside the building, the former Alaska governor said they need to be identified before labeling them.  [...]

He's been identified... Well, he identified himself

 

Jake Angeli, wearing his "horns" and raccoon tails at another event earlier this year...

Same for Richard Barnett of Gravette, Arkansas - "got lost" looking for the bathrooms and ended in Nancy Pelosi's office and stole her mail...

They're not hiding.

There were obviously several-to-many nutballs.

There might've also been plants, a prospect not to be prematurely dismissed.

 

Per observed behavior at earlier rallies/marches, rioting and destruction are highly atypical of "real-people" Trump/MAGA supporters.  Many thousands remained outside, not rushing into the building.

 

Painting everyone with a broad brush correlates with stereotyping.

The vandals need to be identified and charged with their crimes.

Protesters smash windows, police declare unlawful assembly in downtown Portland

 

PORTLAND, Ore — On Wednesday, a group of protesters met at Chapman Square in Portland and proceeded to march around downtown.

Around 9:50 p.m., Portland Police tweeted that the crowd was at the Multnomah County Courthouse. They said, “a few people in the group are trying to pry open the doors while others shield the criminal behavior with umbrellas.”

 

Independent journalists on the scene said protesters left graffiti on the building and appeared to move on toward City Hall.

At City Hall, this message was on display.

Goes well with the crocodile tears of yesterday.

They are not comparable.

 

This is pretty much a daily occurence.

And clearly daily support. Of course journalists like Andy Ngo in the last month have been threatened with flyers and other materials widely distributed basically calling for his death. Other journalists even trying to cover their daily domestic terrorism are routinely assaulted and doxxed. This isn't new its happened regularly since the start of this thread and notably absent are the hysterical left of yesterday and their hyperbole or even basic recognition of this. If it were Wolf Blitzer or any beloved MSM con artist we'd see a different tune along with the millionth insertion of impeaching Trump or invoking the 25th because apparently this isn't a coup. 

 

Another thing to contrast is the left and their attitude toward the vaccine, the anger toward members of Congress taking them, then when this happens suddenly caring about members of Congress and their safety. 😂These people are a walking SNL skit of contradiction, and more importantly, a wise person doesn't compromise with these kind of bad faith approaches, they've been demonstrated tenfold.

I didn't have conservatives rioting in the actual Capitol in my 2021 bingo card but here we are.

 

I imagine a lot of heads will be rolling within the DC law enforcement establishment. That was a failure for the ages.

It wasn't conservatives. It was a pre-planned show by the Dems and Media.

What time did the "breach of the Capitol" happen?

What do you mean by "pre planned show"?

 

The screenshot of the article you cite.. if you scroll down just a tad, you see an update..

 

 

 

If the theory was that it was posted beforehand, all you had to do was look at the archive of this very article, with an archival timestamp before the "breach", and you'd instead find that not only is the headline different but that breach isn't mentioned:

People need to be skeptical of the things they read, even if it comes from people they agree with.

But while the mayor’s office pledged a new approach to the property destruction that has accompanied some demonstrations, some civil rights advocates said they believe Wheeler’s proposal would keep the city stuck on the same volatile trajectory, antagonizing protesters while failing to address their larger demands around racism and white supremacy.

I wonder if these civil rights groups will be saying something about DC Protesters?
