The January 6 Insurrection Hoax
Imprimis ^ | September, 2021 | Roger Kimball

Posted on 10/03/2021 1:27:48 PM PDT by TChad

Notwithstanding all the hysterical rhetoric surrounding the events of January 6, 2021, two critical things stand out. The first is that what happened was much more hoax than insurrection. In fact, in my judgment, it wasn’t an insurrection at all.

Excellent summary of the facts of the January 6 protest, and the left's outrageous response.

The question still remains. How can anyone stage a violent insurrection without weapons? Yet the left would have us to believe right wingers tried to overthrow the government with maybe a fire extinguisher.

Pelosi was trying to engineer a Reichstag fire.

In fact, in my judgment,

So.. this blog writing wanker figures that HIS judgement
(which is the same as ours) needs to be spread far and wide?

Because WHY? Is he some kind of special?

So, hey... TChad... isn't this your opinion too?
So WHY is this guy more important than you?

Why? Does he have a fast connection? A hot wife? A fast car?

Why the hell are you spreading HIS words if they are the echo of your own?

Did he beat you up and make you promote him?

It worked for Hitler. It worked for Peron and it worked for Nero. Why not for the Communist leaders in Washington? The Marxists either staged it or jumped on it like a cat on a mouse.
They knew their buddies in the national media would support them.

Why haven't they ever arrested who?

Who are the "antifa types" supposed to arrest?

Are you drunk again?

On Reddit, I’ll periodically post “This was not an insurrection. If it were, the people in the capital building would have done something other than wander around aimlessly taking selfies”.

Of course, they have no response other than downvoting and name-calling.

My wife wanted to go. I refused to go for the specific reason that we could not be armed in DC. And there was no way I was going unarmed.

I choose my battles.

Anyone paying attention knows that was basically a Reichstag fire attempt. But their instigators couldn’t get the crowd to get violent. Heck, the ones in the building stayed within the velvet ropes.

It used to be that tourists could enter the Capitol and walk around inside, even go up to the balcony and watch the Representatives or Senators speechify. Was there a notice outside the building on January 6 saying that only authorized persons were allowed in?

Imprimis is not a blog. It is a monthly magazine produced by Hillsdale College, a prominent conservative college.

Roger Kimball is a well known conservative writer and publisher.

That's not correct. He always writes beautifully. I don't.

Imprimis is not a blog. It is a publication from Hillsdale College, one of the few conservative universities left in this country, and a leading conservative thought leader.

You can disagree with the premise without the unsubstantiated sliming.
