Sacred infidels?
Seriously, what is broken in you?
Not one damn thing when it comes to identifying enemies of our Republic, left or right.

Other than that I am completely broken, exactly why I need the Blood of Jesus to Redeem me.

Be careful what you ask me, you may not like the answer. :thumbup1:
 
"The paramilitary wing of the party mobbed the Capitol seeking traitors to lynch. Meanwhile, the parliamentary wing, represented by the majority of the Republican members of the House and Senate who voted not to certify Biden’s electoral votes, raised a clenched fist. Together, these two wings compose the right-wing model of governance — and at this model’s heart lies the citizen as bearer of violent threat."

The citizen as a violent threat is a cornerstone of our constitutional system.

Paramilitary my ass, no guns, none, from the "paramilitary"

Only shot fired killed a veteran, Ashli Babbitt USAF E-4.

Slimy puke (Rick Perlstein) calls that paramilitary, probably would call RuPaul a hot lady in waiting.

So you encourage political assassinations'? Interesting. I am sure the Secret Service and FBI would like to interview you.
No one mentioned assassinations except you jackass.
Are you so shallow that you are not equipped to argue a point without going to the furthest extreme, one that no one, except you has contemplated?

For your reading pleasure

"Societies exist under three forms sufficiently distinguishable. 1. Without government, as among our Indians. 2. Under governments wherein the will of every one has a just influence, as is the case in England in a slight degree, and in our states in a great one. 3. Under governments of force: as is the case in all other monarchies and in most of the other republics. To have an idea of the curse of existence under these last, they must be seen. It is a government of wolves over sheep. It is a problem, not clear in my mind, that the 1st. condition is not the best. But I believe it to be inconsistent with any great degree of population. The second state has a great deal of good in it. The mass of mankind under that enjoys a precious degree of liberty and happiness. It has it’s evils too: the principal of which is the turbulence to which it is subject. But weigh this against the oppressions of monarchy, and it becomes nothing. Malo periculosam, libertatem quam quietam servitutem. Even this evil is productive of good. It prevents the degeneracy of government, and nourishes a general attention to the public affairs. I hold it that a little rebellion now and then is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical.1 Unsuccesful rebellions indeed generally establish the incroachments on the rights of the people which have produced them. An observation of this truth should render honest republican governors so mild in their punishment of rebellions, as not to discourage them too much. It is a medecine necessary for the sound health of government." - Thomas Jefferson to James Madison, Paris, January 30, 17872


In light of Jefferson's letter to Madison, Jan 6, 2021 was no rebellion, it was no insurrection.
Consider it a wake up call.

What can be, unburdened by what has been.

“A Florida man who breached the U.S. Senate chamber carrying a Trump campaign flag was sentenced Monday to eight months behind bars, the first resolution for a felony case in the Capitol insurrection.”

“Video footage shows Hodgkins wearing a Trump 2020 T-shirt, the flag flung over his shoulder and eye goggles around his neck, inside the Senate. He took a selfie with a self-described shaman in a horned helmet and other rioters on the dais behind him.”

“Under an agreement with prosecutors, Hodgkins pleaded guilty last month to one count of obstructing an official proceeding, which carries a maximum 20-year prison sentence. In exchange, prosecutors agreed to drop lesser charges, including entering a restricted building and disorderly conduct.”

“His sentencing could set the bar for punishments of hundreds of other defendants as they decide whether to accept plea deals or go to trial. He and others are accused of serious crimes but were not indicted, as some others were, for roles in larger conspiracies.”
