Lawmaker wants to strip benefits from veterans involved in January’s attack on Congress

Curious how liberals are so (selectively) concerned about treason, yet applaud the non-enforcement of US borders.

Article 4 Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution states: The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a republican form of government, and shall protect each of them against invasion....

In order words, you people are not really all that concerned about treason, as promoting an invasion of the US is treason. Rather, I believe you applaud treason if it advances your agenda.

I don't recall one liberal here opining that ongoing attacks on a US Courthouse (part of the Federal Government) by liberals are treason.

 

Mistominior trustpass (and that assumes actual illegals and not asylum seekers which the right lumps together in their ignorance of the law) and sacking Capital Hill hunting for government officials to murder are 2 very different types of crimes.

 

So are you for arresting the pink pussycat hats who busted into the capital to protest Kavanaugh, and started screaming in the faces of congressmen and senators, cornering them in elevators? If it was men doing that to women you KNOW IT WOULD BE CONSIDERED ASSAULT!!!! I would hope so, because they didn’t do ANYTHING different than those that went through the capital on the 6th, and didn’t hurt anyone or anything. They are BOTH wrong, but there is a big difference between those that were violent and those that were just going along with the crowd.

BLM who surrounded police stations, throwing Molotov cocktails and shooting lasers and fireworks were far more destructive than some of the idiots who ran through the capital.

The false narrative is that they were ALL actually trying to kidnap or hurt anyone. They were technically “mostly peaceful” right if they didn’t technically hurt anyone or destroy anything? If we want to use the Democrat definition or protesting that is? Remember where these idiots got the idea to storm buildings from? An entire year of watching BLM and ANtTIFA do it without getting arrested.

 

And that is their right. This sounds like CNN headline lol!

 

People don’t call it treason because there was no real attempt to overthrow the government from the BLM riots. You could absolutely call it domestic terrorism but it doesn’t fit the definition of treason.

What the trumpers have done checks all the boxes however, especially seeing that public servants and military members were involved.

As for liberals not being against people damaging public or private property, that simply isn’t true. The president himself has spoken against it as have many of democratic congressional members and dozens here have denounced crimes while supporting peaceful protest (regardless of what side it is).

 

Please name anyone of prominence or here that has justified or defended anyone who caused violence at the capital?

Yet Kamala said BLM should not stop. And Biden has yet to call BLM or ANTIFA by name for being responsible for any of the violence last year. He hasn’t even admitted ANTIFA is real, has he? Just an idea!!! Many prominent Democrats have claimed many times the violence last year was actually white supremacists, even when you can see exactly who was doing it on video. Then again, I doubt either Kamala or Biden have seen a single video showing black people committing any violence because they refuse to admit it exists.

Just look at the recent violence against Asians. Those dopes don’t ever know the vast majority of violence against Asians is committed by blacks. It’s just ridiculous the depths of deliberate LIES they continue to push day after day. Or they’re truly that uninformed and ignorant. They lie about police violence. They lie about the border. They lie about who’s actually committing violence. Just sheer utter propaganda and hate against white people over and over again.

 

I think letting the government define "involved" in this case is pretty dangerous. If they did something illegal then they should be prosecuted and punished. It shouldn't have anything to do with their service to country. I they didn't do something illegal then this idea is beyond nonsensical all the way to dangerous. Basically stupid politics.

 

They should not partake in benefits provided by a government they were willingly trying to violently overthrow.

 

Yes. Anyone who commits a crime should be arrested. Many were arrested during the Kavanaugh protests, but there wasn't a fraction of the violence on 1/6, so your comparison is ABSURD.

No. The 1/6 riots were far more violent. Hundreds of police officers were directly assaulted. It seems you recognize that with your qualifying language regarding the Trump insurrectionists.

Again, extremely qualifying language. Some Trump supporters, I assume, are nice people. But Trump didn't send his best that day.
