There is a mindset with certain dates. Before and after. In my lifetime it's 9/11 and 2020/pandemic. Those two dates significantly and fundamentally changed life as we know it. For my parents it was the assassination of JFK, 9/11 and 2020. In my grandparents' day it would have been the attack on Pearl Harbor, JFK and 9/11.
In all of these there is a very specific before and after. January 6 doesn't have that same effect. Did some crazy stuff happen? Yes. Did it significantly alter how we live our lives? No. Actually it didn't register in my daily life at all. There may be a cumulative effect that comes to a head at some point, but in no way does that day have the same gravitas those other dates do.

The Trump social media noise machine said something big was going to happen. Regardless, I'm not saying the day significantly affected daily life that way. I'm just saying it will be taught in history classes.

So, you're saying those in charge of Capitol security KNEW something big was going to happen but failed to implement additional security measures to safeguard the building and its occupants? Wow, it's almost like they WANTED it to happen.

That's exactly how some of them got into the Senate chamber. It was a trick. The chamber was empty.

Gay porn is less of a threat to the legislative process than a violent mob, regardless of which one you'd prefer to be involved in.

You keep on throwing out irrelevant facts as if they disprove anything I said. If two men break into my house and try to rob me while I'm home, but my shotgun is adequate to scare them off, does that mean my life was never in danger? Does that mean they committed no crime?
