Fucking moron, what part of, "they have one of two choices ... accept the slates provided by the states or reject them," are you incapable of understanding?Where does the Constitution say Congress is required to accept the electoral votes? What part of "they aren't required to accept them" didn't you understand?Fucking moron, again ... accepting the electoral votes is tantamount to saying the results are correct. What part of that is your limited abilities unable to comprehend?All the protesters wanted is for the results from some states to be rejected. That's perfectly inline with what you just posted.You're truly a fucking moron. They have one of two choices ... accept the slates provided by the states or reject them. They accepted them. That's tantamount as accepting them as correct.No, they are not required to say the result is correct, asshole.Neither is the electoral college, moron. They are required to perform the process, but not to arrive at a specific conclusion.Congress isn't required to certify the vote, moron.It's amazing and almost humorous that these wingnuts think that they're going to gaslight the world into believing that the Jan. 6 attempt to overthrow democracy was just a harmless group of people that did nothing more than trespass.
It's not going to work. We know what we saw:
An extremely violent mob of several thousand people attempting to stop the certification of the freely and legally elected President in order to force the continuation of Trump's Presidency. It was an insurrection against Democracy and against America.
The fact that they did not have any firearms does not change the lethal nature of their attack. We CAN assume that if they had succeeded in getting to Congress they would have murdered at several Congresspeople and the vice-President. There is no reason to assume otherwise.
All those who participated deserve a minimum of 5 years in prison, and the worst of them should get at least 25 years.
Again, what mechanism that they could have applied with the tools and numbers on hand could have led to an overthrow of the government?
Do you argue that they could not physically have killed Pence, Pelosi, Schumer, Ocasio-Cortez or any of the other elected officials for whom they were hunting?
They could have started killing the cops they were getting past and they didn't. They didn't kill the media people recording them.
And your question is goalpost moving. Even detaining congress wouldn't have overthrown the government.
The only person who died in the capitol was an unarmed woman, and you guys jerk off to images of that.
The Capitol police were not the targets of their attack. If they had tried to kill them, the police would have started shooting - and probably have thrown the crowd into a stampede.
Stopping Congress from performing their constitutional duty IS overthrowing the government.
And BTW - you're a really disgusting pervert. Keep it to yourself PERV!!!
Sorry, I meant the electoral college - but you knew that.
They are required to certify the electoral vote count.
Are you truly that stupid or are you just pretending?
What a fucking moron.
