MAGA: He is hero, he is Charlie Kirk, he is innocent.
E
Im reading that it’s an off duty ICE officer
M
That would definitely track
N
Off duty? I wouldn’t be surprised in an on-duty ICE officer was assigned to do something like that.

Love how anyone who criticizes Trump is “inciting” violence. Yet he can say whatever they fuck he wants to rile up his base and this happens. We’re lucky because this could have gone so much worse.
S
No see when he does is it’s patriotic. He literally incited a whole ass insurrection attempt with his rhetoric, but they’ve decided to rewrite history and call it a peaceful protest…even though I was watching it on live TV in the breakroom at my job.

It was a domestic terrorist attack. If those people were anything other than white MAGAs it would have ended much worse.
D
Yep. If a bunch of brown people stormed the capital, there would have been a way more bodies on Jan 6. Also, pretty sure Trump was the one that said rioting should be a mandatory 10 year sentence, or some shit like that.

I’ve always thought it was insane how patient the Capital Police were that day. They would have been justified in using any force at their disposal.
E
I kinda felt that way too watching it live, BUT, THAT was the first out and out ATTACK of American against American. As Michael fanone put it just after it happened, he felt like they could have been his neighbors, and they were SOO angry and full of hate. He said he saw it in their eyes, YET, there were some trying to help him. They WERE TRAINED, disciplined, police agents that DID NOT WANT to kill or hurt their FELLOW AMERICANS simply because the J6 mob believed so strongly in a lie. ICE agents obviously are not that trained, disciplined nor do they have the same respect for all Americans as the Capitol police do and did that day. It’s very sad.
B
It really was strange, like on Jan 6 knowing there was a crazy mob, there was less security Than a deportation of a violent criminal.. it’s almost, it’s almost like.. Trump has a certain bias. No. No it couldn’t be true , this person who has openly said “there’s war in American cities (democratic cities” what timeline are we in?

Also, trump basically promised riots if he lost. People really don’t bring up that fact in the media.
C
Or that his delusions (from his narcissistic personality disorder) make him virtually incapable of admitting he’s anything but perfect.
L
No, spraying someone with something that could be dangerous just for speaking is fine but recording ICE apparently makes you a domestic terrorist….madness
U
If Capitol Police were as bloodthirsty as ICE, hundreds of people would have died
R
I always say this, if we ever did it, we’d be brown bodies on the sidewalk as soon as a single person stepped foot on the grass.

Remember when they shot Lincoln. It was to preserve their way of life and traditions. The South will rise again they said. It has and here we are.
O
“A day of love” – you really can’t make this shit up. Part of the issue with the left tho, is we don’t throw out this level of BS. We should. We should arrest every last ICE terrorist/MAGA nut and say we’re just showing them love.
A
two dems were assassinated last year by a pro- trumper, never forget this
M
And the right desperately tried saying the murderer was a liberal because he was working under Walz…never mind the fact that state governments have employees from both sides of the aisle all the time, and the murderer’s hit list was all liberals.
G
And then they did some other outrageous insane, and yes, truly unprecedented in our time bullshit that took everyone’s attention from that horrific thing. It’s exhausting and so hard to counter.
M
Walz just continued the appointment he already had, its not like he picked him.
P
He had Walz on his hit list
V
Yeah because to them, it’s not their fault for saying things that make you angry, it’s your fault for getting angry.
O
You already know they won’t condemn this, I’m sure they’ll start telling jokes
M
Sort of like Paul Pelosi? They literally mocked him for being assaulted. They’ve already started making fun of Good and Pretti.
O
Yea there will be some backhanded comments and inuendos.
N
That’s how narcissism works.
