First time I can remember where hard core right wingers are mad someone was killed while trying to break into a place. Usually the gun fuckers are all about shooting people who are breaking and entering, nevermind those who are actively trying to subvert a democratic process.
But a large part of the Republican party clearly has no interest in Democratic processes anymore. I mean, we knew that because of all the voter suppression anyway, but they're making it super clear now.
Subverting the democratic process, you mean like covering the windows and blocking election witnesses from being able to see ballots and confirm signatures?
Social media censorship against the most benign views?
Mailing out thousands of ballots to drug addicts and homeless bums all using the same address or PO boxes, against state law?
Accepting ballots 3 days after the election ended?
Curing one side's ballots and illegal vote harvesting?
The gamesmanship of shutting down polling locations for "a broken pipe" or because of "software glitches" in Republican strongholds?
Judges and governors changing election laws, against their own state's constitutions?
Made up Russian collusion charges against a sitting president?
Using the courts to go after political enemies?
Oh, please tell me more about subverting Democracy.
Nobody trusts the "rioting during a pandemic is now OK as long as it is against racism" crowd to fairly count the ballots.
Nobody trusts Democrat secretaries of state to uphold the law consistently.
Today was barely violent, outside of the cops shooting someone. Doesn't even crack the top ten most violent protest of the last 6 months.
It wasn't a big deal when your city or business was burning down, it was just "racial justice" but congress is disrupted for a few hours, and it is an "armed insurrection"
