[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1/6 was the redneck reverse of a BLM protest. And their savior Trump hasn't even tried to help any of his minions who got nto trouble. [/quote]
No, it was way more serious than that.  Sure some of the people there were just standard meal team six afficianados but others went much further.  They were specifically trying to stop the electoral count and overthrow the election.  It was straight up an attempted coup.[/quote]

So we had an insurrection/revolution where a bunch of gun owners left their firearms at home?  Is that how you’re seeing this?[/quote]
What you’re seeing is uninformed and incorrect.

You’re evading the issue. Is your position that we had an insurrection/revolution where a bunch of GUN OWNERS left their FIREARMS at home?

The NPR article details pepper spray, stun guns and baseball bats which is very consistent with some of the left riots we’ve seen, particularly in the Pacific Northwest. [/quote]
There were plenty who actually had guns there.

“Plenty”?  Five firearms documented in the article, none at the Capitol, out of 28,000 people there that day.  My guess is the guys and gals who were armed with firearms knew to stay out of the cap building because most responsible gun owners are exceedingly careful about where they take their firearms.

This has to be the first revolution in history where a bunch of gun owners left their guns at home. [/quote]

They didn’t leave them at home. They left them in their hotels for quick retrieval if needed. [/quote]
