I must’ve missed it but did anyone on here say they wanted that to happen to the VP? If so, they need a TO as well.
Edit: I’m not marching. I don’t agree with storming the Capital or sniping members of Congress like that Bernie supporter. I hope those involved are prosecuted. Take a break.Last edited by Strange Brew; 01-11-2021 at 10:37 PM.

Armed protests are a truly terrible idea, and if they persist I'm worried we are going to have a gun battle in the streets somewhere. I can't imagine many Americans want that. I have to think that the groups showing up to things like these will be an increasingly small but radicalized group of (essentially) domestic terrorists. This is doubly true after what happened at the Capitol last week.
I'm sure they can ban firearms from certain locations / events to help limit this, right? As a starting point, I think it seems pretty reasonable that carrying a firearm in a government building should be prohibited. I tend to think for all people, but at least for people that don't work there. i.e. If I'm a Senator who feels the need to carry a gun to work I'm allowed, if I'm just some random person who wants to enter a Federal building with a gun I'm not allowed.Eat Donuts!

With the FBI warning of demonstrations in state capitols and DC, there's one last opportunity for Trump to do something positive for the country.
He should go on national TV with an address to the nation, and formally concede the election, and ask his supporters to really stand down. Warn them of the dangers they pose in the coming week, and urge them to be peaceful.
Do I hold out a lot of hope he'll do this? Sadly, no. But it would help our country tremendously. Else, there will be more people going down the rabbit hole like this guy:

I am officially done with this forum. It is quite clear that this is not only tolerated on here, but encouraged and quietly celebrated. I have no further desire to spend time in this place, I will be removing all bookmarks and will no longer encourage people to join this website.
Mods, go ahead and disable/delete my account after I log out one final time.
