    I don't know what's more pathetic, the failure of LEO's to stop the mob, the outrage over the costumes, or the gross rioters themselves. Either way, this isn't an attack. A riot sure, but not an attack. This was the outrage of Walmart white trash marching on officers who didn't want to end up in trouble for spraying the crowd with assault rifles.

    For all the people calling this an attack though, it's pathetic. I don't want to see a real attack, but I disagree with this being called one.

        It's just more gaslighting. It was an attack, we all saw it. And this was planned, and it went hand-in-glove with their coup attempt via the fake elector scheme.

        In another time many of those guilty might already have been lined up against a wall or be marched to the gallows. They hate democracy, and they wanted to overturn the will of the people.
