    Normally it’s to change a policy.

    Not exactly, I addressed the issue. It seems far too many here truly don't have a clue what ACTUALLY happened on 1/6, stilling thinking 1000s of people destroyed the capital or something. Haven't seen videos of cops waving people through the doors. Hard to think you're doing something wrong if the cops are allowing you to do it. They should KNOW its wrong, but stupidity isn't a crime. Its just trespassing and in a couple cases, minor destruction of property, like pulling a painting off a wall or messing up someone's desk, stealing a stapler=)

    And if you don't think its dangerous as &$#*#(@ for states to just start removing candidates they don't like, I don't know what to tell you. Essentially every state will just decide who you get to vote for by eliminating the competition every 4 years. And then what? Everything Democrats keep accusing Republicans of doing, its THEM. Jailing your adversaries?? Uuuum, that's the Dems doing it. You don't see it?

    So when you burn down a drug store, what policy does that typically indicate that you want to change?

    You gave seven examples that were posted over several pages and, not all of which were personal attacks, which is hilarious. When you're losing an argument you'll make that many in one sentence. :)
    Don't presume to order me around but, you first. 8)

    You want to attack the Front Range "radical Left", but the looneyQ right on the West Slope is off limits? :shock:

    It's only radical if you're part of the opposition, for most people in Colorado it's .. normal. 8)

    That’s looting, not a rally. Are you saying that’s what Jan 6 was or just trying not to answer?

    The only thing confusing me is your inability to grasp basic concepts about the Courts' role in this. That's puzzling.

    Nothing at all to do with guilt or innocent of crimes.
    Is this nonsense making the rounds in RW fantasy sources?

    Nothing about any guilt or innocence is involved.
    Just engaged. Planning, leading, funding, are all engagements. Not criminal.

    Trump failed to answer a subpoena? When? Where?

    I never said Trump would be locked up. He never did anything to deserve that.
    Hunter should be in the slammer though.

    No. It's your argument that is silly.

    But that could be irrelevant to the 14th.
    The courts will weigh in.

    Well I don't think the burning down of a drug store is actually looting. No one is bagging up ashes and bringing them home, and your inability to pin a policy issue on burning down a building kind of provides the answer to your question, you are just unwilling to accept it.

    They broke into the Capitol. Illegally.
    Destroyed anything or not is not relevant. It would only add to charges.

    Just because some cops didn't fulfill their lawful duty doesn't mean the majority of cops didn't do their jobs.
    There's plenty of videos showing the protestors pushing down barricades and over running the cops.
    Did you not see them?

    Is this a joke? He answered, but he lied about complying.

    I don’t know why stupid people burn down stores.
    So 1/6 was just like burning down a liquor store?

    Yeah, it was a riot, stupid and pointless. That should have been obvious.

    So you finally get it huh?

    Most of the ones pushing down barricades and breaking windows were Antifa and undercover agents dressed up as Trump supporters.

    What I SAID was that dragging "Boebert" into a reply to my post for no reason except that you wanted to divert and distract is what's 'off limits'.

    This klatch of clowns on the Colorado Supreme Court are going to get their asses HANDED TO THEM by the U. S. Supreme Court -- wait and see! You on the Left simply cannot understand that the 'Jan.6' hoop-la was a stupid, out-of-control incidence of protest that turned into a riot. The only person who was killed was a protestor, who had been shot by Capitol police! To call this idiotic, silly rampage an "INSURRECTION" is ludicrous!

    Moreover, Trump himself did not march on the Capitol complex, did not lead a crowd in an armed 'insurrection' on the Capitol, or anything of the sort! To say that he was guilty of a Civil War-style "insurrection" is a laughable lie -- and I say that as someone who (believe it or not) does not (NOT) want to see Trump back in the White House!

    Why, oh why can't Republicans find another Ronald Reagan?! Why, oh why can't Democrats find another John F. Kennedy?! We are now in desperate need of men like them -- not the ass-clowns who are our 'front-runners' today!
