They were dumb *** Trump supporters up until the time they decided to storm the Capitol.DennisTheMenace » 05 Jan 2022, 7:27 am » wrote: ↑ They weren't "insurrectionists"
They were dumb assed Trump supporters.
Webster defines insurrection as "a usually violent attempt to take control of a government."
Lest we forget, they beat Capitol police, smashed through windows, brought zip ties and incendiary devices, and shouted "hang Mike Pence." Elected officials and officeholders were cowering in fear of their lives. People were injured and people died.
And while some may want to trivialize what had occurred that day, why it happened, and who was involved (before and behind the scenes), I PERSONALLY happen to think calling them just some dumb *** Trump supporters almost amounts to calling them "tourists."
