    We have A LOT of things to look into, but the radicalization of military members is becoming a huge issue.  Who or what is radicalizing them into turning against their country and the oath they swore to uphold? 

    if my 15 year, Army captain brother in law is anything to go by, mainly facebook meme pages. Dude has a company-level command, believes some crazy shit and is conditioned to defer to authority figures, it's wild.

    Because Trump wanted it that way? My point is not that they failed. My point is that the individual cops on the ground were not on the protestors' "team" as so many seem to suspect.  

    The boots on the ground aren't at fault - their chief of police is at fault for failing to give them enough support to protect federal property from vandalism.

    I thought property damage was a bad thing? I thought we HAD to station military forces to protect national monuments and federal buildings? It's pretty fucking clear that all the ingredients of a shit show were pulled together.

    If a bunch of surly fucks on the internet can see that it's a powder keg with a shitgibbon monkey lighting matches on top, then a chief of police certainly can too. And it's a pretty reasonable question to ask HOW the rioters were even allowed to get to the steps - that area is (supposed to be) a secured area after an attack in 1995. 

    EDIT: actually, no fuck that, capitol police literally opened up barricade lines for the terrorists and took fucking selfies with them in the rotunda. There's individual cops complicit.

    She fucked around and you can see at the 43 second is where she truly found out.  (You might have to click through because Youtube is censoring the content but it's there.)

     

    Jesus Christ what a fucking idiotic and stupid and selfish decision by that dumb cunt to force one citizen to kill another in the cradle of our democracy. Truly awful, but she sure earned it when she hopped up and started climbing through a broken window

    I'm very interested in the post-mortem investigation of how capitol police completely failed to protect the capitol, it's remarkable that the police statements so far are "we didn't think they'd do it"

    We came pretty fucking close to a reichstag fire yesterday, considering the 3 IEDs found by police and stashes of molotovs nearby

    My agent just emailed me and said that the company will have a statement out tomorrow. I emailed her back and said  that if it is not an immediate termination statement, then I’m moving all of my policies(6) to another agency by early next week. I’m not done with this company if they don’t fire this bastard, I promise to let many people know about him and the agency.

    This is some good shit

  7. Is this the thread we use for violence towards elected officials and domestic terroristic acts?

     

    I'm sure a bunch of angry people with guns outside the governor's house have only the best intentions, and in no way are linked to the seditious and inciting rhetoric of trump.
