    don't talk to me today, I'm traumatized by an event that happened halfway across the country and didn't affect my life in any way

        Imagining turning on the TV and there's Granny, who has somehow wandered into the capitol building. You call your mom to see wtf is going on. How did Granny even get to DC? She only drives to the grocery store and to church these days and is scared of driving on the interstate.

    Fond memories of the “gas attack” which was just a fire extinguisher

      I remember the chud that tasered himself in the balls and had a heart attack and the one scaling the side of that wall that fell off :data-laughing: what a hoedown.

        The funniest thing about the walk scalers, is that there were stairs, right there. Like right there. But herd mentality I guess, one person climbs the wall and triggers it.

        This actually gave us my favorite Snopes article of all time where they debunk this with the power of journalism. How do they do it? By speaking to the man's wife who wasn't there.

        Greeson said that her husband was a supporter of U.S. President Donald Trump and that he was excited about going to “once-in-a-lifetime events,” but she denied allegations that her husband had stolen a painting or that he had even made it inside of the Capitol, for that matter. And he certainly didn’t “taser his balls.”

        There you have it, must be true. I can't imagine any reason a person might lie about this to save face for her surviving family.

        Let's not forget the lady with the "Don't Tread on Me" flag who was trampled to death.

    My favorite part is how they had no idea what to do when they got inside. They took selfies and then left. They haven't even tried to do anything else.

      The majority of them just wandered around inside like lost tourists while the real feral minority went hog wild breaking into Pelosi's office and inside the congress thingy where they stole the podium and posed for pictures.

        It still amazes me how close the United States came to be being overthrown, and how it only didn’t happen because trump was too busy watching the insurrection he started on television. He would have literally been treated like napoleon had he just joined the crowd.

      This January 6th prepare yourself for an action blockbuster like no other, DEMOCRACY DIES starring Gerard Butler as Everyman Joe and Jamie Foxx as annoying sidekick.

      The choreographed fight to topple or unseat democracy is to distract you from the fact that this is an oligarchy.

    January 6th made me feel fear again! I will now forever vote for any Democrat that runs and never ask for anything! I will forever live my life in fear of a couple of hundred etsy crystal shop owners from flyover country walking around in a building that the authorities let them walk into!

    The two most traumatic memories for me are the guard who chastised a few raiders for smoking indoors and the dude who got inside and decided the best course is action was to steal a portrait of Tip O'Neal.
