You're a nutter and unpatriotic.
+1 traitor — the police were not effing giving tours that day. People were scaling the walls and going through windows. There crossed police barricades. Anyone climbing through a window knows they were trespassing. It was obvious and you know it.
If I'm right and your wrong, what does that mean about your information environment?
Absolutely no one walked into the Capitol building on January 6th unaware of what they were doing. No one.
Watch the tapes and draw your own conclusions. I saw video of the Capitol Police waving their arms in a welcoming gesture. Which is what police training at the time would have favored-- deescalation tactics. Remember that these police spent the summer before guarding the Capitol during the BLM riots and were instructed to deescalate. That's what they did on J6 and it was good police work. But to the protesters, being waved in and given a tour could absolutely be mistaken for being welcome. In any case-- even if I were wrong on this point, which I'm not, there's a huge difference between trespassing and assaulting LEOs. People who assault LEOs should have enhanced prison sentences.
Dp here.
Can you post a link to the videos showing LEO giving them a welcoming wave followed by a tour? Because from everything I have seen, there is absolutely no way someone walked in there and thought it was a-ok.
I'm not going to do a deep dive to find the wave, but this video shows that the police were allowing entry. Seeing the videos were enough to convince me that a reasonable person might be confused. And it's not like the Capitol is private property-- people are allowed there under certain circumstances, and the sitting president told them "go to the Capitol." https://youtu.be/evRIetWVqQk?feature=shared
In any case, you're getting distracted by the veracity of the trespassing claims when really what you want to say is that its okay to assault ICE agents and that the fact that cops got assaulted on J6 provides a sort of cover for the current violence against ICE agents. Do I have that right? Also, since other people robbed banks before, would that justify me robbing a bank?

?????????????????? You must be kidding.
They assaulted LEOs and were responsible for several deaths. Do you have no respect ?
I've talked to actual Capitol Police who were there that day that I know socially. They were in a tough spot and followed their training, which was to be warm and welcoming to the protesters. And the tapes, which you can watch for yourself, corroborate what they have said about this.
Go ahead and pull up early threads here on DCUM about this very issue. The left noticed how chummy the Capitol Police were and in the immediate aftermath, were calling the Capitol Police traitors who facilitated the incident. They were calling the Capitol Police right-wing extremists based on these clips. Right here on DCUM. Look it up. People's memories have been distorted by time.

You are a liar. Our neighbor was there that day, and for days after, and he was traumatized. He was a shell of a man for weeks after and slept at a hotel downtown.
I cannot believe you are suggesting that police were inviting people in the Capitol. Just come on in through the windows, guys. Poop on any desk you like. No need to bag check that confederate flag.
It was absolutely traumatizing for the police. We are in violent agreement about that. However, the fact remains that they did what they were TRAINED to do, which is to be welcoming. I'm in no way claiming that they enjoyed the situation or that it wasnt horrific for them. And my Capitol Police friend was extremely shaken for months. But I am able to understand that if people are welcomed in, they may not understand they are trespassing.
You are exhausting and still a traitor. People knew they were trespassing. GMAFB!

You really have the nerve to double down. 😳 You’re not right. Period. The end.
And you have the nerve to support the idea that since some people assaulted police officers on J6, that the left should be able to attack them also? Like that makes any sense? Stunning lack of morality.
You’re a piece of work. Totally projecting. You can’t stand the fact that you’re a traitor. Own it, or repent. Up to you.
I will not waste my time on a low-brow yelling session with someone I don't even know. If you want to discuss actual reasons why it's wrong to attack cops, a concept that you seem to lack moral clarity about, I will engage.
You are the one saying it was fine to take a tour of the Capitol and attack cops on 1/6. You can’t condemn them. Thats the point of this thread, traitor. You literally proved OP right.

Remember that these police spent the summer before guarding the Capitol during the BLM riots and were instructed to deescalate. That's what they did on J6 and it was good police work. But to the protesters, being waved in and given a tour could absolutely be mistaken for being welcome. In any case-- even if I were wrong on this point, which I'm not, there's a huge difference between trespassing and assaulting LEOs. People who assault LEOs should have enhanced prison sentences.
The Capitol Police did an excellent job of protecting the lives and safety of the insurrectionists, which is to be commended.
No one there is as gullible as you, though. The J6ers knew the date and why they were there, to interrupt the vote certification and change it.
Even if what you're saying is right, which its not-- how does this justify the left assaulting LEOs?
1) what the PP said is right
2) the LEO's in this case, ICE, are not acting within their legal parameters. ICE are the ones violating the law here.
So it's justified to assault them? Why not seek redress in the courts like a civilized person?
Dp.
Idk, stand your ground? Self-defense against a well-regulated militia? Ya know, the scenario you guys have been fantasizing over for years and have used as an excuse to carry any and all guns with you everywhere you go? Well guess what! It’s happening. Your wildest dreams came true. We are under attack by a well-regulated militia.
