28k Trump supporters at J6 event carried weapons.

This is a pretty astounding headline. My post from February 22, 2021:

https://www.texaschlforum.com/viewtopic ... 1#p1303051

I said that 4 handguns and one "prohibited weapon" (that presumably being the ridiculous "QAnon Shaman" who had an American flag tied to a spear) were recovered from the people who breached the capitol building. Four handguns not only don't constitute an armed insurrection in anybody's imagination, but that in most states that would more accurately just be "the middle left-hand shelf of the gun safe."

He said I was nuts and asked me if I hadn't seen all the news stories showing rioters waving guns around as they breached the capitol. I told him to send me links to some of those news videos. Haven't heard back from him.

To get that information, I scoured Google for about an hour, as well as looked at the posted activity logs of both the Capital Police Department and the Washington D.C. Police Department. Admittedly, I had no access to the Secret Service, but I don't believe they arrested anyone at the capital breach itself.

That New York Post headline reads: "28K Trump supporters were armed for battle on Jan. 6, panel report says." Gives the average leftist or independent voter the impression that guns were everywhere, doesn't it?

But then the Sham Committee report itself goes on to say, "Secret Service confiscated a haul of weapons from the 28,000 spectators who did pass through the magnetometers: 242 cannisters of pepper spray, 269 knives or blades, 18 brass knuckles, 18 tasers, 6 pieces of body armor, 3 gas masks, 30 batons or blunt instruments, and 17 miscellaneous items like scissors, needles, or screwdrivers."

Where are all the inferred guns? And this was, by way of reminder, at Trump's speech and not the much smaller crowd that eventually entered the capital.

I haven't read through the 845-page "Final Report of the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol." Don't know if I have the will or interest to wade through that. If anyone wants to, it's available in PDF format here: https://january6th.house.gov/sites/demo ... mittee.pdf.

If you're curious about how well-armed the people who entered the capitol building actually were, you can search through that long document for words like "gun" and "firearm" and "rifle" and "handgun" and "pistol"; then look at the context of each mention (33 times for gun, 22 for firearm, 11 for rifle, 3 for handgun, 1 for pistol. One of those mentioned is in the foreword written by Nancy Pelosi. She states: "On that day, tear gas fogged the air as gunfire rang out, and a violent mob crashed against the sealed doors."

To this day I can find no reference anywhere to any shots being fired inside or at the ingress to the capitol building by anyone other than law enforcement officers. And the only person shot was Ashli Babbitt, an unarmed woman and veteran, who was in the process of climbing through a window.

Disclaimer: I in no way condone, support, or agree with the actions of the demonstrators and rioters on January 6. It was not only a despicable event (which did more political damage to conservatives than just about anything else imaginable), but it was a brutally stupid thing to do. However, this was, in no shape or form, an armed insurrection. This is a country with around 400 million firearms in civilian, non-LEO hands. If there were ever to be an actual, planned and staged insurrection, taking place in it wouldn't be people wielding just four handguns and a spear...oh, and not to forget some personal-sized cannisters of pepper spray and screwdrivers.

But our tax dollars paid for that "select committee" travesty. Three of the gifts I received this Christmas were that the "select committee" is now defunct, that Liz Cheney got positively clobbered in the midterms, and that in just days there will no longer be a dimocrat majority in the House.

and no body still owns up to the CAPITOL police opening HARDENED security doors to allow so called rioters to enter the capitol.
doors open OUT not IN and are locked by default when they close . so how did they magically open? i watched the live feed on cspan..capitol police OPENED the doors and waved folks in...
never hear or see that on news at night

Dems release Trump’s tax returns.

The only tax returns I would like to see are Lee Oswald’s.

I don't really care how a billionaire took office and lost money. Let's see all members of congress tax returns. I would love to know how these folks take a job paying 150-175k per year and become multimillionaires within a couple years. It amazes me how the very people who wrote all the loop holes into the tax code are the ones crying about Trump taking advantage of them.

I seem to recall hearing how a fresh young congresswoman got elected in NYC and could not afford to live in D.C. on her new salary after working as a bartender to make a living. Four years later, she is not complaining and can get custom designed dresses to wear to fund raising parties that cost thousands of dollars to get a ticket to.

Yeah, seeing how to put millions of dollars in the bank on a salary of $175,00 while paying for two homes would be an interesting thing to learn. Kind of like how a community organizer can go from being almost broke to having a net worth of more than 25 million after only 8 years with a salary of $450,000 a year. Even given his not paying any living expenses during that time, that seems hard for me to understand.
