    Us is all the folks that you don't give a fuck about.
    Insurrection at the Capitol, images of the police officer with his head being crushed, individuals dressed as Vikings on the floor of the Senate… we’re not going to call this normal.

    Guess I am happy to be NOT Us.

      I would argue just the opposite. Liberals made violence the new normal. And they started it with their support of BLM & Antifa.

          You're probably unaware of history, so let me clue you in.


          When the people aren't safe....the politicians that were elected to protect them aren't safe. When liberal leaders support a bunch of violent thugs...they will never be safe. Nor should they feel safe. You reap what you sow, buddy.

                Absolutely!! I'm 100% certain that the politicians in Congress during the attempted kidnapping didn't feel very safe at all while the violent trumpers tried to "cancel" the results of the 2020 election. What do you think?

                  This is a damn good question.





                  House Republicans demand answers from Pelosi on security decisions leading up to Capitol riot




                  Davis, Jordan, Comer and Nunes pointed to claims made by former Capitol Police Chief Steve Sund, that he, on Jan. 4, approached the sergeants at arms to request the assistance of the National Guard. Sund, in a letter to Pelosi last month, said the former Sergeant at Arms Paul Irving said he was concerned about "the optics" and didn’t feel the "intelligence supported it."
                  "As you are aware, the Speaker of the House is not only the leader of the majority party, but also has enormous institutional responsibilities," they wrote. "The Speaker is responsible for all operational decisions made within the House."

                  Pelosi’s office fired back at the Republicans on Monday, claiming the security of the Capitol and democracy are "not the priorities of these ranking members," while saying "the Committees of Jurisdiction were briefed in advance of January 6 about security preparedness."

                  The Republicans added that for the past two years, they have observed a "very heavy-handed and tightly controlled approach to House operations that has been exerted by yourself, your staff, and an army of appointed House officials."

                  "When then-Chief Sund made a request for national guard support on January 4th, why was that request denied?" the Republicans wrote. "Did Sergeant at Arms Paul Irving get permission or instruction from your staff on January 4th prior to denying Chief Sund’s request for the national guard?"

                    Parler comes back online one month after going dark


                    Parler, the social network favored by conservatives, came back online Monday with a redesigned website one month after it was suspended by Amazon Web Services and effectively driven offline.

                    "Speak freely and express yourself openly, without fear of being 'deplatformed' for your views," Parler's homepage read. Content from before Parler vanished no longer seems to be available. In its first post on the platform Monday, Parler's own account welcomed users back and said: "We will not be canceled," followed by an emoji of a flexing bicep.

                    The website's return marks the reopening of the social network after revelations that some of the US Capitol rioters had organized on Parler prompted major tech platforms to cease doing business with the company.

                    The full service appears to be back online. In addition to bearing an apparently redesigned logo, the site also links to a new community guidelines document that explains the company "will not knowingly allow itself to be used as a tool for crime, civil torts, or other unlawful acts."

                    The community guidelines still maintain that the platform will try to remove content as little as possible, showing how the company is attempting to balance its pitch to users as a haven for unrestricted speech with the scrutiny it's faced for its role in enabling violent extremists to organize.

                    "In no case will Parler decide what [content will] be removed or filtered, or whose account will be removed, on the basis of the opinion expressed within the content at issue," according to the community guidelines.

                      Fakebook had more people organizing the rally and they were mainly BLM and Antifakes doing the posting.
                      But of course fakebook didn't take any of their posts down.
                      Even radical Muslims are still allowed to post their Death to America/Israel crap.

                          You are continually playing the victim card on having free speech taken away, why don't you tell us all exactly what you are not allowed to say. I am truly interested in hearing it.

                              I think they forgot to add the other violent groups that have destroyed mom and pop businesses by looting and damaging them while they rage with hate for injustices. However they have removed their marxist ideology from their page since I last checked. How about Louis Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam, that is never addressed???? He has spouted words from his mouth against the Jewish community and blames them for slavery!! How about his speeches against the "whites"??? He was banned from Facebook about his racist
                              comments... but it is never talked about in the media, I wonder why???



                              Error 400 (Bad Request)!!1

                              I am just calling it for what it is.
