I do. And his wife was quoted as being thrilled that he was facing justice for the first time in his life. https://www.yahoo.com/news/oath-keepers-founders-estranged-wife-030952893.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many who were charged at the time were charged with misdemeanors. I think this guy was charged later. Remember when you went along with "believe all women" until someone mentioned Tara Reade? Then you said, "don't believe her"? Edited November 30, 2022 by Monte1076 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You really left it where you didn't take a definitive stand, when there was clearly one to take. How about that? You avoid obvious FACTs all the time. You just won't admit it. Here's a definition of "insurrection": "an act or instance of rising in revolt, rebellion, or resistance against civil authority or an established government." So here's the thing, Barry, and you as an educator ought to know this: There's a difference in an act and being charged with an act. Do you consider the protests against the COVID mask mandates, etc. to be "insurrection"? Based on the definition above? Were the people throwing Molotov cocktails at police during the "summer of love" and all the riots that were going on committing insurrection? Look at the definition and tell me. So yes, you could argue that there were many people there who committed insurrection. There were also many people there who didn't. And many were charged. The difference between you and I, Barry, is that I tend to look at things a little more cynically and skeptically. Do I get things wrong? Sure. I'm sure you do, too. I'm in the "let's let the legal system work" camp. Do you not believe in "letting the legal system work"? Here's a classic example of what I mean: Nick Sandmann. Or Kyle Rittenhouse. Or Derek Chauvin. You formed immediate opinions of the two of them, without looking into the facts of either case, based on media portrayal. "I don't like them" or "they look smug" or "they have a punchable face" is not a reason to find someone guilty of something, or accuse them of something they didn't do. Jussie Smollett fabricated a story. You, Democratic politicians, and the MSM ate it up. Why? It fit your belief system. The story didn't add up from the beginning, and most of us knew it. My stance on it was IF it happened (note the word IF there) it's a terrible thing and the perpetrators should be charged and we let due process run its course. I watched the Rittenhouse trial. I heard the same testimony that the jurors did. Same with the Chauvin case, I watched it while I was working. Though I don't think I would have convicted Chauvin of murder. I might have gone with a lesser charge, based on what I heard and the evidence presented. Rittenhouse was clearly self-defense to me. A jury thought so as well, even though there were reports of possible jury intimidation. But you believed things based on how you felt about the person, and what you heard about/read in the media. There are still people who believe Kyle Rittenhouse shot black men. He didn't. NONE of the people who were shot in that incident were black.

Lots of extra there, which comes across as very defensive, with many assumptions made on how I saw things from beginning to end.

Without plunging down into a rabbithole with you, I will say with great confidence that there was a coordinated effort on January 6th, planned over weeks, to completely shut down the voting confirmation of the presidential election. That response, instigated by Trump and his minions, was violent and was by every definition of the word an insurrection. I fully believe that there were bad actors, with firepower prepared, accessible to them, that would have been utilized, if certain things had occurred, such as Trump being able to go to the Capitol and not stopped by the Secret Service. Any attempt to diminish or deflect or straw man away the actions of what happened are cowardly and treasonous, in my opinion.
