Pic's probably real, the proud boy types went to a lot of the BLM protests to stir things up.  I'd imagine that's what's going on in the pic.

As much as we'd all love that. It would cause scenes that would make tonight look mild in comparison

Yeah, but America doesn’t negotiate with terrorists! 
 

tongue and cheek - you are right unfortunately.

Twitter deleted his tweets!

Well I think that debate we had about Trump being a fascist just took a deeper turn this evening 

[Innovindil]

On the positive side of things, after the shit show defense of the capitol building area 51 is now trending on twitter again. Excellent.

As long as it's white people with confederate flags they will be fine for storming area 51

At last, a coherent, well founded and thought provoking comment from someone who is clearly in the know.

 

Strewth!  They allow fellas like that to own guns.

 

Now is the time to get down on our knees, raise our outstretched hands to the sky and give thanks to the dear Lord for the Atlantic Ocean.

Fkn right wing conservative scum.

Trump's twitter account has been locked! 

[Mike Oxlong]

I hope that this gives some of the enablers a reality check but the problem is that there are so many wackos who are all too willing to believe whatever he and his family says 

[Alf Bentley]

Disappointing to see that Robbie Savage was involved in this outrage - and particularly that he was wearing a Tigers hat. Has he lost the plot?

Lot of Tory MPs frantically checking through their previous tweets tonight I imagine.

Examples need to be made from top to bottom, and quickly.

Nah, if Farage's latest effort is anything to go by, it'll be hand-wringing and all "well, this is wrong" while completely ignoring their backing of the man than incited it all to happen.

Thank fook they locked his count for 12 hours and deleted some tweets and threatened to cancel his accoubt if he continues.

There's a bit in this good report that tickled me and just emphasised your average American is just a fvcking sheep

 

'and your reason for storming the Capitol?' 

 

'how the hell would I know?!'

When something doesn't work and hasn't for decades and continues to get worse it makes sense to me that change is necessary. How that happens is outside of my control. When a government ceases to function and refuses to represent its citizens the inevitable occurs.

 

John Fitzgerald Kennedy  "Those who make peaceful revolution impossible make violent revolution inevitable."

 

All who live in my country need to be involved in its decision making. Somehow the corruption and illegal wars must be stopped. I feel the only way this can happen is by the dissolution of the federal government. At least at a state level there is some accountability in terms of person to person contact on a regular basis. An elected representative can feel the wrath of the populace without being able to run to DC to hide. 

 

I am not a violent person. Violence solves nothing.

The poor and the middle class in this country are getting beaten down like dogs and have been for most of my life. Should we continue to take it? Perhaps allow another 40 years? I don't expect you to answer that but I sure as hell won't tell my fellow citizens what they should do. Change will happen unpleasant as that is.

I'd agree that change is necessary, but with respect, the dissolution of the government in the way you suggest would inevitably lead to violence in the ensuing power vacuum and as such I think it's a bit dissonant and disingenuous to encourage the idea and yet abhor violence and believe that it solves nothing.
