Congress Shut down......

The right of a lawmaker to safely reach the meeting place is one of the bedrock foundations of representative government. It's in Article 1 of the constitution. Threatening lawmakers and preventing them from entering is literally how the English revolution started in the 1600s. Blocking lawmakers from assembling is one of the grievances in the Declaration of Independence of 1776. Sacred was lucky's word. Do you have a better one?

You realize the "seat of government" you're referring to is just an office building, right? Government can run and be administered from anywhere. The physical location is purely symbolic. If there is any one building in the country that is sacred, to be saved above all others, it is, in my humble opinion, Independence Hall.

Oh my, wherever will we find such a building? We'd need something almost as large as a banquet hall or high school gym.

You're technically correct, but don't you see that it kind of makes the government look illegitimate if they can't even hold on to their own building?

All of that clumsy dog-whistling has finally amounted to sedition.
Shame that lady lost her life protesting an election result that wasn't even close enough to argue about.

These images capture the horrific scene that took place outside of the Capitol building today. Truly disgraceful. Oh wait—my mistake.

Quite the opposite, losing the building and reconvening in another location only makes it appear stronger than ever. It illustrates that the destruction or takeover of any physical location will not stop the function of government. It is an undeniable force, enduring through any adversity, ever there to serve the people. PS I don't recall anyone saying the government looked illegitimate when the Pentagon was on fire.

Wow it’s almost like one cause was for a legitimate issue and the other was to appease the last gasp dry hump of an orange demagogue. The [BLEEP] pulled today is magnitudes worse and should’ve been even more violent if necessary force was used.
Let's pretend.......
Leader El-Hussein Ahmed goes on video telling people to walk down to the Capitol to confront this egregious assault on our democracy. His second in charge, El-Ahmed-Ahkmed then says calls for a trial by combat. Hundreds of Arabic / Muslim supporters storm the US Capitol, some armed with pipebombs and Molitov Cocktails. Now.....what would we call such an event?

Again as an eyewitness I can say they’re where provocative actors in the crowd to me they where obvious plants but that’s just my impression. I agree it seems to be getting out of hand from the reports I’m reading now

At some point you just have to let go of what you thought should happen and live in what is happening. (01-07-2021, 01:04 AM)StroudCrowd1 Wrote: Rumors of Trump at national command center in Texas. Not sure why.The command center is really the nighthawk plane, it's one of the disaster planes ( there are at least 3-4). 1 is always in the air, but supposedly they don't fly to this base and it left DC where 1 is always on the ground waiting. There was also a lot of other traffic in Texas, but I haven't seen it. The video had to have been prerecorded because of no noise, wind, and temperature. The video also tells people to leave and go home, which is required before the insurrection act can be executed. Not sure he will use it, but his video was removed quickly and this has been an information war somewhat in the open from both sides. Sent from my SM-G781U using Tapatalk
The order to send in the National Guard came from Pence.
Shows that (a) Trump didn't want to send in the National Guard (b) Pence and SecDef are acting as if the 25th amendment was invoked.
