No that goes to far. They flew traitor flag, but the QST gives them the right to do it.

I detest that flag. I’m Jewish, does someone have a right to fly a Nazi flag, yes. Free speech covers ALL kinds of speech.

bzzz, over 10,000

You are not actually suggesting over 10,000 BLM/ANTIFA thugs from the massive 2020 riots were tried and put in jail are you?
When'd that happen?

You may want to go to the closest nut house and lock yourself in. Together with the equally crazy AG Garland.

“without a jury for the trial”.
So, the BOR has been suspended?

While that is true, it is also true that all Confederates were pardoned/given amnesty after the war by President Andrew Johnson.

You’re doing something wrong if you’re not the “enemy” of this federal government.

“Without a jury…”

Was this waived by the defendants? If not, then immediate mistrial. They are guaranteed by the Constitution.

His problem is he wasn’t waving the rainbow flag.

“The 1st.”

People breaking into the Capital and waving the Isis flag? Okay with you?

“You are not actually suggesting over 10,000 BLM/ANTIFA thugs from the massive 2020 riots were tried and put in jail are you?”

I’m saying I googled it and found that more than 10,000 people, up to 17,000 people were arrested for participating in BLM protests.

So?

Then your enemy is Reagan and Trup, who love Lincoln and would have stood with the Union. Woodrow Wilson, on the other hand was a neo-confederate.

Well, Lincoln was a communist and Reagan invented the "Southern Strategy". Wilson grew up during the war, he wasn't "neo-" anything.

The flag is part of our history. All “enemy” participants in the war were given pardons under the Amnesty Act of 1872. FYI: they “paraded” through the Capitol building, not the Capital.

“The flag is part of our history.”

So? Not a respectable part. Doesn’t mean we can break into the Capital and carry it around while being assholes. There are a lot of things that are ‘history’ that we shouldn’t parade around with for good reasons.

The confederate flag used to be part of the state flag of Mississippi until only recently. The state flag of Hawaii still contains the Union Jack of the UK. Why the hang up with flags? Are you virtue signaling?

Political prisoners. Where’s Amnesty International when you need them?
