it had more to do with committing perjury
You know, when I was younger, if you had a blow job, but never fricked, you were still considered a virgin. We also considered having sex to be actual fricking. But kids today probably call it, "having gender", so I don't know. All I know is that impeachment was just as stupid as the Trump ones. It was all political theater.

I don't find this topic serious enough to even get upset about it. From a year ago until now, I've found the entire thing absolutely absurd, and saw the Democrats gleefully using it as they have.
I was just as shocked by the events of January 6th as I was at all the other riots. It's all disgusting and embarrassing to me. That the Democrats turn their heads as their people are looting is just as distasteful as the Republicans turning their heads as their people unlawfully enter the Capitol during the certification.
All I can say is...

not even guys like yourself think it was remotely what it was claimed to be
Well, I've never been a Democrat, and I know a lot of Democrats that think it was the end of the world and Donald Trump needs to spend the rest of his days in Guantanamo for it. I just think he should be held responsible for it to the point that he just turned people off from voting for him again. So don't go by what I say to lead you to believe what Democrats think.

After reading the Election Board in the days leading up the Jan. 6th, it was clear to me that Trump was inciting people to show up "stop the steal!" So while I find Trump culpable, I wouldn't hold him legally responsible.

Without getting derailed, The Clintons and their usual brazen illegal behavior started that entire investigation with Whitewater and various bullshite investments back in Arkansas. The fact that it ended up going to where it did was only made possible by even more terrible personal behavior by Bill Clinton, the kind that today, even for him, would have gotten him completely and utterly cancelled. When he lied about it under oath, that's what tripped the charge. Everything else is, and always has been, window dressing there.

I definitely was not. In fact, after the Summer of Love January 6th felt expected. It's actually why I think most there behaved as if what they were doing, which was mostly nothing, was going to be overlooked considering nearly all of the actual violence and destruction of the previous 8 months had been. They failed to consider they were the wrong political persuasion...

I'm not a fan of this moral equivalency. While both may be "bad" there is, at least in my mind, a world of difference between the "bad" of an entire summer of nightly fiery riots that lead to nearly $2,000,000,000 in destruction and dozens of lives lost, and the "bad" that resulted in a handful of broken windows, a stolen nameplate, and some silly photos.

Been here a long time. It's not what I do, really. I'll get heated form time to time if it warrants it, but I'll only argue a point if I think I'm correct and have the facts on my side. Hell, I've even admitted to being wrong once or twice was I was shown why I was! I enjoy the process of all of this too much to just be some dick troll.

This only has any weight in hindsight. Had nothing happened, the way nothing almost AWALYS happens when politicians use fiery language, it would have been understood the same way that language traditionally always would have been.
It's why the Dems laughably getting breathless at "Fight like hell" was so funny, because shortly after that someone put together a compilation of many of the same politicians using the same phrase, or much hotter. And that was called "whataboutism" rather than addressing what it really was, a typical double standard.
I saw that original call as simply trying to get as many people to DC s possible to put pressure on their own representatives to do something by virtue of them being there. The right has no real history of knowing how to protest a damned thing, so it's difficult to animate them in any way.

They’re out there bc I’ve watched a few. We were by the Washington Monument/White House and he was speaking for 15mins or more while the deep state put on their theater show for the gullible people. Maybe a hundred or two had starting walking early but the tens of thousands who came to support President Trump stayed & listened until he finished speaking.

And while I've seen the fiery riots in the streets since the late 60s, I've NEVER seen the mob actually enter the Capitol with the intention of changing the lection results.
I find our different perspectives interesting, if not...

I actually remember when the motto of this board was, "The shittiest LSU board on the World Wide Web" or some such. I generally try to stay civil and avoid the attacks, but when someone starts them with me, I'll jump right in with both feet - generally making a fool of myself in the process.

You really can’t help yourself and stop lying, can you? You’re such a disingenuous quack bc you know the vast majority of Trump supporters were waved inside by the cops. Many took selfies with them. Many yelled at the cops to do something bc they were standing there watching with approval as Antifa grabbed bats from people thru a window inside the capital and began acting out their roles.
But by all means, keep proving you’re a fool without a moral compass by lying and saying they unlawfully entered.

As did I, until I was reading the posts on the EB. The mob will mob.

There's rarely any profit in it.
My favorite protests are the ones where maybe a dozen people show up carrying signs, in the rain, looking like drowned rats. So sad and pathetic, but funny at the same time. I usually see these for environmental type protests.

I have no actual knowledge of anything of the sort.
I guess it was just the Democrats that were urinating, defecating and stealing people's stuff.

That the Capitol Police let anyone in doesn't make it a lawful entry.

I remember someone with video of these strange busses that were escorted in but, have heard nothing more of them since. This whole thing was planned way in advance. Three letter agency style. Powerful players don't seem to be "MAGA"! ETA; yea, the link you provided.
There’s an even better video with undeniable evidence of this escort. It was a younger guy in shock and couldn’t believe what he was seeing. His video shows the large chartered busses with the cops escorting them like a train for several blocks.

You quoted me saying something I never said but as to the above statement I quoted... You lied and said they entered unlawfully.

That's because they did enter unlawfully.

Violent entry? The cops opened the doors and held them for them.
You disingenuous pieces of shite make me sick.

So, if the goal was to take over the building and place Donald Trump on the throne, what stopped them? I don't recall the national guard violently pushing anyone out of the building. Or the Marines. Or Capitol Police. Other than that traitor Ashli Babbit getting shot with one bullet, I don't recall any firearms being fired at insurrectionists.
Didn’t Trump call off everything- once it was apparent that he plan wasn’t going to work? I mean…there was a bizzare “go in peace” video…right?
Also, hasn’t released texts shown that Trump was being forced to do the video?
Also, how many people was calling/texting Trump to get him to stop his supporters?….why were people panic calling him? If it was nothing?

Are you being intentionally obtuse here?
The section is titled "Unlawful Activities" - "Violent entry and disorderly conduct"
Even those that showed no violence at all, broke the law.
