They're about to charge a man to 33 years in prison for an event he did not attend, an event that is not an insurrection. He didn't even participate in the planning because it was the FBI who instigated the riot, not any political group.

But this is nothing new. A Catholic Church was monitored by the FBI because they suspected terrorism. The FBI monitored a school board meeting where people were speaking out against pornography in school libraries. The FBI shot and killed an elderly man because he posted threatening statements about Democrat leaders on social media, statements that he was physically incapable of ever doing.

Thanks Democrats. Thank you for turning our government into a corrupt terrorist organization. You finally got the America you've always wanted. Where dissent is no longer allowed and is punishable by, in one instance, death.

Now that you useful idiots have given our government everything they wanted, now it's your turn. Just like in all socialist, communist, nazi regimes, the useful idiots are the first to be exterminated en masse. So watch your back because this is the government wanted so bad.

If he was "physically incapable", maybe he shouldn't have literally posted pics of himself appearing to be fully capable...?

Also... "dissent" ??? Dude was blatantly threatening to assassinate the President of the United States (and other people).. numerous times... with specific guns even.

My understanding as of right now how it went down is (allegedly) he was questioned by the feds once before. He told them to come back with a search warrant. He made various threats about them online. They came back with a search warrant. He pointed a gun at them. They shot him.

Is that the guy the FBI murdered? If it is the guy then how old was he when this picture was taken? Does dressing up in commando gear warrant the death penalty? So when comedian Kathy Griffin held up a mock bloody head of Trump, should the FBI have raided her home?

You can sit at home and threaten the president, Gavin Newsom and other Democrats until you are blue in the face because of the 1st amendment. The only time that would be a problem is if he was actually doing something about it.

Seeing that you cannot see this man's face this picture is most likely a fake, just to make liberals feel good about themselves.

ALL reports said that the man was an invalid. He wasn't completely disabled but he was home bound. He was 75 years old.

But I guess none of that matters to the left. Just being pro-freedom is enough to get you the death penalty. Our lives are of no consequence to you anti-human leftists.

So when Musk released files showing the FBI's involvement in censoring speech, that just make you laugh. I am 100% sure you would be screaming to the top of your lungs if the FBI started censoring liberal speech. I remember about 20 years ago when the left started this campaign of "censorship is un-American". I was confused by this because NO ONE was censoring liberal speech. I don't know what that campaign was all about. So when actual censorship starts happening but only to the right then all you do is just laugh. What happened to "censorship is un-American"? Where did that go?

What determines if speech is violent? I've heard conservatives say some very mild things and Democrats accused them of violent rhetoric.

I watched a video of Candice Owens knocking on Patrese Cullors (co-founder of BLM). Candice just wanted an interview. Patrese, at the same time, was creating a video of herself. Cullors was acting like the Klan had showed up outside her house and was about to kick the door in to lynch her. Owens was very cordial and when Cullors refused to open her door Owens just left. Patrese was still inside panicking. Was just the matter of Owens knocking on her door an act of violence?

Remember back when McCain was running for president and Sarah Palin make a campaign about how they were going to "target" certain states on the campaign trail? Remember the lefts reaction to when she said "target"? How absurd was that?

The term violence is far too vague in an era where micro-aggressions are considered a serious problem.

Now if you intentionally trying to provoke s fight, not a verbal fight but a physical fight then you can be fined but that is for the courts to decide. But it has to be specific and not vague.

In general violent speech is protected by the 1st amendment. Remember the reason for this amendment? It was to protect speech that the government or an individual doesn't like. I hate movies where they have at least one "F" bomb in every sentence. I find that extremely annoying. So what do I do? I don't watch them. I don't run to the government crying that Leonardo DiCaprio said too many "F" words in the Wolf of Wall St. Instead, I just haven't ever watched it. The "F" word could be considered violent speech.

Kathy Griffin, comedian I'm not a fan of, posted once, was investigated for 2 months, was put on the "no-fly" and interpol list, and did not own a collection of machetes which could have been used to carry out her vague post.

Dude wasn't a comedian, a musician, or anything in the entertainment industry. He was a random nut actually owning more than 20 firearms any one of which could have been used to carry out his relatively specific and repeated threats to assassinate the president and a handful of other people.

I know nothing about the Proud Boys other than when I looked up after liberals turned them into one of their boogyman groups.

Your neo-fascist comment shows me you don't know what fascism is. The World Economic Forum are real fascists. You should look into them and their public/private partnerships. Your president is a part of that neo-fascist group.

The Proud Boys did not sound anything like fascists. I don't agree with some of their beliefs but they are pro-Constitution. You cannot be in favor of the Constitution, freedom, the bill of rights and be a fascist. It's impossible.

The left has decided to redefine the word "fascism" to mean anything they want it to mean but I define fascism but what the father of fascism, Il Duce, Benito Mussolini, pushed on Italy. That is fascism. It's not, "I'm a liberal and you're not allowed to disagree with anything I say or you're a fascist". It doesn't work that way. Words have actual meanings.

And that is supposed to impress me somehow. Antifa don't know their butts from a hole in the ground. I'm ALSO anti fascism but I would never join a prop-communism group, movement, whatever just because they are anti-fascism. Communism and fascism are twin brothers.

I'm also pro-freedom and that is something Antifa has absolute no understanding of. They want power and control. They're no different than any of the other malignant narcissistic statists.

You making the above meme tells me you’re not anti-fascist. Communism and fascism aren’t “twin brothers”, fascism in its conception is everything within the state and nothing outside of the state, whereas communism is more nuanced, and in all socialist schools is regarded as the abolition of the political state.
Is it bad for a group to want “power and control”? It’d probably be safe to say a majority of Antifa folks are anarchist, so that power and control would resemble community decision-making and action.

Fascism is Marxism that allows private ownership with strong state control. Stalin lambasted Mussolini by calling him a right winger. Because Lenin and Stalin both nearly starved their country by kicking farmers off their land.

Communism has two definitions. The one that existed long before Marx, and the form of authoritarian statism that Marx invented.

Nazism is Hitler's version of Marxism.

Socialism is a governmental system that Marx based his nonsense.

Your opinion that I an for fascism is about as true as your definition of fascism. Just because you are part of a group that likes to impose your definition of who people on the right are, does not give you that right. We, on the right, are the last hope at saving the Constitution of the US. We put freedom of the individual as the highest value and government authority is the lowest value. George Washington compared the government to fire and said the people must keep the government controlled or it will burn the country down.

Marxism is what is burning this nation to the ground and you are fanning the flames by defining real Americans by your bogus definition. You are the statist who puts government authority over the life of the individual.

You sound like one of those "socialism is when the government does stuff" type of people. Hitler lambasted and denounced Marxism as Jewry, and he was not inspired by it, fascism is truly an inverse of communism and Marxism, it doesn't seek neither abolition of class or proletarian dictatorship, it just seeks dictatorship and class collaboration.

"Marx based his nonsense" tells me you've not read Marx a day in your life.

It is well-established that the Proud Boys are a neo-fascist group, that their members have ties to white nationalist groups and that they are Pinochet enthusiasts. The group only allows men and is inherently misogynistic, as fascists are. Seriously, do the slightest bit of research before you make an insane meme like this.

That's a really beautiful pity story, unfortunately it's not true and it's misguided entirely. The right is not preserving freedom, they are reaction and they preserve regressive and old institutions and prejudices. Nothing the far-right Supreme Court is doing is freedom-oriented, they're actively in the process of removing more and more rights from the people. Your superstitious fetishization of the Constitution shows you don't understand true freedom. The Constitution justified colonialism and land seizure, the establishment of money, taxes and so forth. It is the foundation for the gradation of despotism our modern government espouses and exercises.

The foundation of the American government was rooted in democracy and liberalism, stupid illusions that citizens and checks and balances would regulate and limit the power and might of government effectively, and that we may even be permitted to alter or abolish the government if it stopped serving our ends. Tell me how we accomplish this while living in the largest surveillance and police state ever conceived anywhere.

"You sound like one of those 'socialism is when the government does stuff'"

Don't put words in my mouth. What I am saying, is what George Washington said. But then you probably think Washington was a fascist also. What I am saying is that governments, all governments, have a inherent problem of attracting narcissists to leadership positions. It has always been that way. The more power and control the narcissists assume the more dangerous to liberty. Washington compared governments to a fire.

"Hitler lambasted and denounced Marxism as Jewry"

If they were alive at the same time then Marx probably would have denounced Hitler as Jewry also. Marx hated Jews just as much as Hitler did. He probably would have not liked some of the changes that Hitler had made to his political/economic theory either. But then maybe he would have. I certainly think he would have agreed with Hitler on exterminating all Jews.

"it doesn't seek neither abolition of class or proletarian dictatorship, it just seeks dictatorship and class collaboration."

Marxism isn't about abolishing class distinctions. He is about pitting the classes against each other and having the proletariat rising up and destroying the bourgeoisie. Marx could never achieve this with out pitting class against class. And you're right, Mussolini didn't care about destroying the bourgeoisie, instead he sought to control them through military action. Mussolini was a syndicalist, he was very much into promoting the proletariat class through unions and syndicates. And this is the entire argument that Stalin had with Mussolini. This is why the Italian Socialists killed Mussolini. Because he did one thing different. One thing. The end result was the same but he did not strictly adhere to Marxism and was killed for it.

"It is well-established that the Proud Boys are a neo-fascist group, that their members have ties to white nationalist groups and that they are Pinochet enthusiasts."

You made me have to go look up who that Pinochet dude was. According to Wikipedia, Augusto Pinochet was a dictator who was influence by the Chicago School of economics. He had his group he called the "Chicago Boys" who had studied under such greats as Milton Friedman (BTW I like Friedman a whole lot).

What I was shocked by was that this is the first time I have ever heard of a dictator being a free market guy. That just seems like a contradiction in terms. He would have had to greatly reduce the role of government in the lives of the people and reduce himself to more of a figurehead, a president. Someone who just presides.

Of course Wikipedia had to put their liberal bias all over their article and make leading statements rather than actual facts.

But, thanks to you, you have made me a Pinochet fan also. I'm going to have to find out if he fully relinquished the control that most dictators rise to that power to have. I'll bet he turned Chile around. Wikipedia had to through in the usual BS about income inequality. NOTHING on this planet creates more income inequality than socialism, pre and post Marx. And all of the other variations of socialism. The bourgeoisie become the ruling class and the proletariat become the starving to death, living in squalor class. It happens every single time it is tried.

"The group only allows men and is inherently misogynistic"

Yeah, I saw that on their website. I don't agree with you about the misogyny part. But how can you have a group with the name "boy" in it and allow girls? If they were the "Proud Girls" would you expect them to allow boys?

"The right is not preserving freedom, they are reaction and they preserve regressive and old institutions and prejudices."

There you go again, blindly, calling everyone who disagrees with you racists. Have you ever thought to look at the racism that is on the left? Your buddy Marx was a world class racist. In addition to Jews and black (who he referred to using the "N" word) he hated a bunch of other groups of people. I read the entire list once and I can remember them all but I think the Portuguese and Spaniards were on that list. He hated Scots. There were more. In fact Marx wanted the elimination of about 80% of the world's population. Oh and Che Guevara... Talk about a racist.

And I cannot believe how much of a pass the left is giving Joe Biden. He is probably the most racist president since LBJ. And you guys call Trump a racist. Trump has been given awards by various black groups over his life time. He had more black voters than any Republican has had since the blacks were coerced to leave the party that freed them and into the party that tried to keep them enslaved.

When the left, all of the sudden, started their campaign to end discrimination, I remember some of that as a kid. Two words were thrown about all of the time, discrimination and prejudice.

Prejudice is a word that means to pre-judge. In the case of blacks, it was to make assumptions about them solely based on their skin color. I haven't heard that word used very much in the last 20+ years. Why? BECAUSE THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU GUYS DO TO US EVERY DAY. Hardly a day passes, if I am watching TV, that some blather nitwit on the left goes off on how racist the right is.

And here you are just blindly following along. Being every bit as prejudice against people you know nothing about. Just because we disagree with you does not mean we are racists. Being Anti-communist, anti-fascist, anti-nazi, anti-socialist, anti-Marxist and anti-statist does NOT mean we are racists. There is no correlation between the two. Being opposed to losing all our freedom does not make one a racist.

Oh and you can have those Neo-Nazis, KKK and any other groups of nitwits like that back. They started in the Democrat Party and for whatever reason decided to go to the right. We don't want them. We never wanted them. You can take them back, they're yours and yours alone. They think like you, they talk like you and we just don't like them. Never have and never will.

I sometimes think the Democrat party leadership made some kind of a deal with them if they all became Republican because they all seemed to come over all at one time. They are not pro-freedom, none of them.

And don't ever try to come off saying that you antifa guys are pro-freedom. You guys sicken those of us who truly are pro-freedom. Freedom for all is mandatory at the individual level. Collective freedom, the kind of freedom that Marxists like to pass off as being pro-freedom, is NOT freedom. It is tyranny.

If you cannot support maximum freedom at the individual level - REGARDLESS OF RACE, GENDER, WHATEVER - then kindly renounce your citizenship and move to North Korea where you can be truly happy.

Okay.. Strike that. I just found out that Pinochet had a whole bunch of communists killed. I do not support mass murderers, even if they were communists. I also don't like dictators. Now, that being said, I can only find liberal articles running Pinochet down. Perhaps the people Pinochet had killed were more than just political dissidents. Perhaps they were posing a threat to the stability and freedom of the country. Perhaps they were all murderers themselves. Socialists, fascists, communists, et al have always seemed to be very murder happy. They place no value on the individual and only the collective. Individuals are expendable. This is exactly how ever Marx inspired regime has ever operated.

So perhaps they needed some type of legal punishment for being major pains in the butt. Because Marxists are always just world class pains in the butt. Am I right or what?

Are you going to be charged in a DC court for firearms possession in the state of Washington? When did DC get that kind of authority?

And just like Enrique, there were no firearms found in the possession of anyone in the Capitol build on Jan 6th.

But the left soooooo wanted to find guns on people where there. And when there were none found, they invented that charge. Of all of thr bogus charges that were filed against the rioters, protesters (who never entered the Capitol building) and people, in Enrique's case, who weren't even there, none of then included firearms possession.

And the crazy thing is firearms are supposed to be legal in DC after the Supreme Court ruled on the Heller case.

Hey! I work hard at being obtuse! 😁

Have you been to Washington DC? Do you know how far you have to park from any of the government buildings? Do you know how inconvenient it would be to run back to your car to get a weapon? Do you realize how many people there were for the protest? That would make parking much harder. What they found in 1 car was a Glock. That's it, just a Glock. In another car they found materials that could be used to make a Molotov cocktail.

That is just not enough to start an insurrection and they were never even used. I believe the Molotov cocktail was planted by the FBI. Seeing how this event was always intended to be a peaceful protest.
