So is it done for now? Can I go to bed? Can the US go 8h without some new major douchefuckery?

Apparently they arrested a whole 13 people. :lmfao:

In contrast, 14.000+ people were arrested in the protests after George Floyd's death.

There is a comparison to be made (apparently some of the Capitol cops were taking selfies with the protesters), but worth noting the George Floyd protests / riots took place in multiple cities over multiple nights, compared to one afternoon.

Seems someone wanted to bring a flag of Georgia to the riots, but accidentally brought... a flag of Georgia: https://twitter.com/sher_khashimov/status/1346942758091689986

QuoteWoman shot at the Capitol has died
A woman shot in the chest on Capitol grounds today, as a pro-Trump mob stormed the building, has died, according to NBC News.

It was previously reported that the woman, who has not yet been identified, was in critical condition after sustaining gunshot wounds.

Had they been black, they'd have shot more than that. Instead, selfie.
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

In Washington it was 400 in just one day, apparently. Against 13.

Yeah lots of abuse of white privilege going on today. There is zero doubt that would have gone differently if that was not a white mob.

Well things go differently when the President of the United States is covering for you.

I'm seeing reports of clashes in Salem, Oregon and LA too, but no idea about arrests there.

I get that everyone is just shitposting, but the capitol cops report to congress and aren't part of the executive branch.
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

There's a fine line between salvation and drinking poison in the jungle.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)
