There’s some nutter talk going on here. Lots of posters squirting accelerants and trying to strike sparks. I don’t like it one bit.

The accelerant will come from the right - and we will be too paralyzed to do anything.

...I did specifically skip that title because it seems futile to me to consider pushin Biden to do anything un-Presidential.

But honestly, if Biden does feel that there was some unconstitutional act that needs to be corrected, I kind of hope he does consider using his newly Constitutional powers, if he must.

Human nature is human nature, and we're all subjected to the same cultural and social influences whether we are liberal, conservative or in between.

I don't think this was a coup attempt at all. The motivations varied by the individual. SOME of the rioters certainly would have torn a Congressperson to shreds if they had the chance. But reports from inside the Capitol actually show many rioters walking between the velvet ropes as if they were on an 8th Grade field trip.

Look at the damage to the Capitol. Relatively light damage, no arson. They did less damage to the Capitol than the jocks did to the nerds dorm in Revenge of the Nerds.

It seems as though you are more upset by posters on a message board than you were the insurrectionists on January 6th -- do you pass your own "Hypocrisy Test?"
