January 6 - How much do you care?

[89Hen]

89 is Moe.

I think Clenz would make a better Moe. I'm the drunk guy talking about better times.

[UNI88]

Who is more delusional?
- The people claiming January 6 wasn't that great of a threat to our REPUBLIC.
- The people comparing January 6 to 9/11, Pearl Harbor or the Civil War.

Depends on how you define "that great".

4 or maybe 5 and below on the poll.

I was a 4, so I'll have to go with door number two.

[UNI88]

No absurd enough for you? I’m just trying to fit in with your histrionics

It was decently funny the first few times you used it.

Histrionics…a term often used by those in denial.

Exactly. Democracy was never in peril on 1/6/21. Never.

But anyone who listens to the msm probably thinks it was.

[CID1990]

Anyone who claims that Jan 6 was a “threat to democracy” should outline exactly how that is.

Please explain for me the mechanism by which a bunch of MAGAtard hicks were going to end our democracy by overturning the election - by storming the capitol building.

I’ll wait

….or people describing a riot in the capitol building as nearly toppling the world’s oldest democracy.. without actually being able to describe the mechanism by which that would have happened

Please keep pushing that narrative and all the others though … next fall our democracy, strong as ever, will send the Dems to the political wilderness for 20 years and then you can pivot to “stop the suppression” histrionics

Well… Marinus of Rab, or the Icelanders, or the Kiwi’s might argue with your…histrionics.

I will of course neither be surprised nor all that heartbroken if the Dems get their asses handed to them. But a 20 year wilderness trip prediction is even less likely than your DeSantis dream.

a 20 year wilderness trip sounds like the flip side of the JSO "demographics don't favor conservatives" coin.

This country's voting populace is so fickle and so easily swayed and so ill-informed I can envision a bloodbath in 2022 and still seeing the Rep's lose seats (and possibly the presidential election) in 2024.

They probably weren’t, but that coupled with what Team Trump was doing is a bit unsettling. Navarro just recently suggested that the terrorists (oops, I mean patriots) fucked up their plans.

I’ll give you an outline when you outline what would have happened if the mob had caught up with Pelosi, AOC, Romney, or Pence.

Or what would have happened if Pence had decided to not certify?

"a bit unsettling" is a loooooooooong way from a "threat to our democracy"...

And sadly, we'll just never know what would have happened....but I'd pay good money to see it.

[BDKJMU]

I had to think about this and was interested to see the replies before I voted.

I went with a 10.

Any threats to democracy are concerning. If this was just a bunch of uppity yahoo’s causing a ruckus that would go away quickly it would be one thing. This was far more than that, beginning with the efforts by Trump and his minions to subvert the election results and continuing a year later with an uncomfortably large amount of people still in denial including elected officials and military and law enforcement types.

It’s the kind of shit that we, as a nation, supposedly steeped in the ideals of fair elections, peaceful debate, etc. should collectively and unequivocally renounce.

Crisis periods in history often mean rapid (and uncomfortable) change along with lost faith in institutions. That explains much of this, but history should also teach us to be aware of what has happened before and what could happen again if we don’t take it seriously.

We shouldn’t be remotely close to these kind of internal threats.

The only threat to democracy we’be had in the last 5 years is from your side trying to overthrow a duly elected president by concocting a Russian collusion narrative that was a complete fabrication by the Clinton campaign, the donk aligned media, and deep state democrat actors within the FBI, with their coup attenpt culminating with a complete sham of an impeachment.

What a bunch of yahoos did on 1/6 pales in comparison..

Ah yes…the titillation of political violence.

Why on earth would anyone be concerned?

Well based on the way everyone behaved who actually went inside, they’d probably all have gotten a stern talking to.

Who would have guess this would have been used against their political foes? Complete shocker.

Good point - those poser cunts couldn't even find the latrine

I was so hoping they'd find Mike Pence though....even though they'd have screwed up the lynching too, probably

We are all predictable in our own ways.

Somebody said that this place is like a neighborhood bar and I think that is a good description. We all have our favorite drinks we order before we get started throwing peanut shells at each other.

Should almost be it’s own thread. CSers as tavern patrons.

I’ve only asked that question on here a dozen times and long before CID’s request. Still waiting for an honest reply. Feel free to take a whack at it.

You asked a question nobody can answer.... what would have happened if the mob had caught up with Pelosi, AOC, Romney, or Pence? Nobody knows. There, I answered. Now give the outline.

“A bit unsettling”

Is that what you call a 10 on your Richter Scale of handwringing?

Even though you predictably deflected and refused to answer the question, I’ll tell you what may have happened if the mob had caught up to AOC or Pelosi or Romney - they certainly would have been assaulted, maybe even killed. But that is just speculation AND it is immaterial. Just as when a leftist nut opened fire on a baseball practice with the intent of killing Republicans- the business of government would have carried on just as it did then.

Pence’s certification was a formality and not a requirement because the question would have expeditiously moved to SCOTUS just as it did when Democrats tried their own “stop the steal” in 2000.

But back to my original question which you predictably avoided answering -

Tell me the mechanism that would have allowed the Jan 6 mob in the capitol building to allow Trump to remain in office. Because if that isn’t the Threat To Democracy TM you are voting a 10 on (over being a bit unsettled) I’m not sure what is.

Again, I’ll wait
