He definitely got his talking points in later on in his speech.

And are people really trying to storm the capitol building?

Yes and you won't believe this.. Not one tear gas, one rubber bullet, not one cop in riot gear.. Imagine that. I am shocked they don't just let them in.

Nate, your politicians don't actually want to be near these people, they just want the threat of these people to loom over everyone else.

What a revolting yet fitting end to 4 years of hell.

Apparently tear gas is being used.

I haven't seen any, all I have read is Cops are being pushed back.. Protesters are now getting closer to Capitol.

Posted: **Wed Jan 06, 2021 2:18 pm**

Looks like they are evacuating the house chamber now.

Edit: Maybe not. Can't confirm that.

Inside now..

They just couldn't arrest these assholes, could they?

I really don't see why not. You're not just allowed in that building.

Someone from CNN at the scene said Capitol Police are pretty much letting them go..

This is crazy..

This looks like it's going to be really really bad.

If those protesters were black or brown, there would be blood shed by that thin blue line. But since they aren't the fucking cops play nice and spray little cannisters of tear gas (if at all). Not even non-lethal (or whatever the fuck they call rubber bullets and bean bags). Fucking bullshit. All those people need to be fucking arrested and fucking drawn and quartered on the fucking mall. Fuck them. Fuck the police.

If you have 100 cops and 2000 protestors/rioters/invaders, you can't arrest them.

Where's the National Guard that was on standby?

This actually is probably a time when that's the worst possible thing that could happen because we're a razor's edge from this being the Bastille. This is treason.

I wonder what would happen if there were 100 cops and 2,000 black protestors.

Cruz and Hawley should be outside meeting with their people, right?

Posted: **Wed Jan 06, 2021 2:37 pm**

If I was going to be a person who buys into conspiracy theory, I'd sure wonder what the fuck is going on with the lack of numbers of law enforcement.

You had National Guard out in full force very early for the BLM protests.

WTF is going on.

Posted: **Wed Jan 06, 2021 2:38 pm**

How is this even possible??

Fucking how? I woke up a couple hours before my alarm. And now I can't go back to sleep.

This is fucking insane. Where are all the police forces?

Edit:

And the dude on tv made note that these have been closed because of COVID. None of these people have been screened. And they just walked in.

Posted: **Wed Jan 06, 2021 2:40 pm**

And at the end of the day, this is all just bullshit. It's just delaying the inevitable.

And it is going to, finally, show people like Ted Cruz and others that have enabled all this what the consequences are of lying to millions of people for years and years.

Fucking treasonous bastards.

There are tweets about gunfire inside, no idea if they are correct, but seems like it'll help.

This idea that these guys are gonna come into the city and just run rampant is ridiculous fearmongering. (not directed at you, J).
Hopefully, this proves true when they are majority white.

I feel like one shot that the people outside can hear is the tipping point.

Yeah, I hadn't seen the coverage yet. The bigger point is why weren't more cops on duty, and why the National Guard wasn't more ready. They should've planned for the worst, given all the rhetoric leading up to this.

Oh, I think we're past the tipping point.
