The “insurrection’ is what was done to the imprisoned...the government basically has overthrown every article of American law and created a precedent for political imprisonment

“””” There were belt fed machine guns set up in the entrances to the Pentagon””””

I had just moved to Florida with a friend who was building the first dragster that had a (rear? front? I don’t remember) for Big Daddy Don Garlitts, at his residence when at someone’s house that had a TV I saw the 82nd Airborne was moving into DC and I thought big violence was coming so I asked the people for a paper bag to hold my stuff in and I started hitch-hiking to DC.

What you wrote could not happen without command and control. If Trump had such an ability on that day, it would have been an insurrection. He was not at the head of a column, showing they way into the Capitol. He told people to lawfully and legally raise their voices in protest.

My thoughts are that while some who destroyed federal property should have been arrested, the DOJ and FBI have way overreached on the charges and prosecution of those involved.

The execution of the unarmed lady veteran at the hands of a panic stricken Metro Police office should have been grounds for dismissal and prosecution.

Much of the lack of prior preparation for the demonstration and much of the “over-reaction” to the demonstration seems to have been planned, almost in advance to send a message to Trump supporter that “The Government” will crush you if you don't shut up and behave as we say you should behave.
