What are you talking about? The insurrection was not quickly ended, but even if it had been it would not minimize the severity of the actions taken on Jan. 6th. Physically knocking down fences and fighting with cops / security to gain entry into the US Capitol in order to violently prevent Congress from certifying the election results: are you saying that is OK? Or that it was nothing to be concerned about? If I tried to break into your home to prevent you from living there would you be OK with that as well? If not, why not? |

It just lasted a couple hours. That is pretty quickly. I said a little revolution now and then is a good thing. When an election is outright stolen via all kinds of fraud it is. If you try do it when I am not at home. Loaded gun in my dresser. The President is a fink. |

Herein lies your problem: you actually believe Trump won, that the election was stolen, when in fact courts have determined there is insufficient evidence to support the claim. The foundation / basis of your argument must fail if in reality the election was not stolen. It's been almost a year now; maybe on Jan. 6th during his press conference Trump will finally produce the much-referred to yet never shown evidence of election fraud causing a stolen election. Like the old lady in the Wendy's commercial I ask "Where's the beef?" Remember, just saying something is true doesn't make it true. |

Just because "the courts say" does not mean the election was not stolen. The whole mail in voting fiasco is proof enough. I will explain it the way the FBI agents described why they could not bring charges for the crew who did the Lufthansa heist: "Knowing and proving is two different things." Heck, the machines I used to vote in 2016 were replaced by far less secure paper ballots. For what good reason other than enabling fraud? I will go to my grave knowing it was stolen. The President is a fink. |

It is different (and more serious for many reason). Trust me I am no fan of BLM or ANTIFA, but when looking at terror risks there are really three things that matter: 1. Frequency (Number of Attacks per time period by Groups or affiliations) 2. Severity (Damager -death, injury, property damage, etc...- caused by attack) 3. Numbers (Number of members and supporters of groups that support the action). In all three metrics right-wing extremism takes the cake, its not even close. Speaking strictly about domestic terrorism. 57% if you just take it at people who are blatantly right wing and 25% for left wing extremists (and again these numbers do not count the Severity, almost nobody died in the left wing attacks compared to the right wing attacks), and really 57% should be over 70% in my view because I consider domestic religious terrorists, abortion-motived terrorists, and most ethno-terrorists to be right-wing. International terrorism is different, though I consider Islamists, right-wing extremists, so its not that far off internationally either.... You can find Google articles, I put the terror attack list from the FBI, I trust this more as far as what is considered by the FBI to be a terrorist attack. |

There, I FYP. Belief without proof? Sounds like a religion, or in this case a cult. |

Amen, brother If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
