House approves $1.9 BILLION for Capitol security

#21

You guys shouldn't try to justify what happened on the 6th, just like Hurricane shouldn't overstate what happened. Many people felt they were cheated out of an election and let their emotions get the best of them. Maybe there were a few small groups there that had a plan to overturn the process. Sure. Those groups are guilty of insurrection. Republicans should acknowledge this. That said, it was a very small group of people on the whole. Applying that to all of the people to voted for Trump is asinine, and whether or not any individual on this board has done it, the media and leftist politicians certainly have. That's non-sense. 500,000 people didn't show up to stage an insurrection. A few small, right-wing groups, including a few ANTIFA agents incited a small fraction of them to do something stupid. That's it. End of story. Making it out to be anything more than that is poppycock.

An insurrection where the one shot fired was a cowardly cop killing an unarmed woman. Funny stuff.

So standing on the Capitol steps waving an American flag is an act of insurrection, but throwing the same flag on the ground and setting it on fire is exercising your 1st Amendment rights?

Why about the guy drinking the coffee?  What treasonous act should he be charged with?

"On March 1, 1954, while Members gathered on the House Floor for an upcoming vote, three men and one woman entered the visitor’s gallery above the chamber and quietly took their seats. All four belonged to the Puerto Rican Nationalist Party and only hours earlier had traveled from New York City to Washington, DC.

The United States had annexed Puerto Rico in 1898, and the island’s relationship with the federal government had long been a point of contention. Some Puerto Ricans sought to maintain their relationship with the mainland, and others, like the four visitors in the House that day, argued for an independent Puerto Rico.

The Capitol had few security protocols at the time, and the four Puerto Rican nationalists entered the gallery armed with handguns. Around 2:30 p.m. they indiscriminately opened fire onto the House Floor and unfurled a Puerto Rican flag in a violent act of protest meant to draw attention to their demand for Puerto Rico’s immediate independence.

Five Congressmen were wounded in the shooting.

Members, House Pages, and police officers quickly helped detain three of the assailants outside the gallery, while the fourth escaped the Capitol and was apprehended later that afternoon."
