I have seen that a few times and I keep telling myself. Shouldn't these people be arrested, ideally you don't want them to just leave?

I imagine they're looking to calm things down first as they know it could go south. Too many of them have guns.

This Idiot will be going to jail. Unlike his dear leader.

I sure hope many of these idiots are going to jail. Even if Capitol Police doesn't arrest them today (as they fecking should), surely any US Attorney can take all of these cretins to task.

Biden on TV, calling out Trump, telling him to come on TV and tell the protestors to get out.

Is there a punishment for invading the Capital? Surely yes?

Just imagine if there were half a dozen Russian or Chinese spies in that mix and they had 10 mins worth of access to a senator or congressman’s emails.

But I don't think that Pence and Pelosi should go on twitter and give the impression that it's alright if these "protestors" just leave. Saying nothing would be better in my opinion, let the National Guard and the police deal with them as they see fit.

I feel that they are giving a sense of impunity/triviality with these messages.

But is it terrorism though?

Guys, I think @HTG asked if its terrorism because of my earlier argument that it wasn't, not because he thinks it isn't.

It's quite classy to come to the aid of someone who just made fun of you. I respect that.

It's treason not terrorism.

Crimes against the state, is that still a thing?
