    But just cause they went into the Capitol building doesn’t mean they all had the same intentions.

    Normal tourist visit, huh?

        Yeah, the way it works is that a bunch of inbred hayseeds try to install Trump as dictator, and because you wish they had succeeded, you downplay what they did and pretend that the Supreme Court still has legitimacy.

            You just haven’t realized it until recently when it has become a hot topic and now it is easier to blame Republicans, but overlook everything else.

            They’ve been more shameless about it. As in this case, where they’re pretending that obstructing a government proceeding applies only to documents, and where you’re pretending that anything other than ignoring the statute entirely requires enshrining guilt by association into law.

                I’m not sure how or whether you gather that they are pretending that obstructing a government proceeding only applies to documents

                Because I actually read the article instead of immediately being like “buh whuubut BLM?!??!?!”
