Are any of the protesters armed? Would be a great idea to take down social media for the duration.
The police should’ve been prepared for this. Today was always going to be a flashpoint. A lot of police and army are Republican Trump supporters, so wondering actually how hard the police are trying to enforce the law?.
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?
These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.
I object to the use of the term “anarchy” to describe this disgusting situation. The scum who are doing this are authoritarians who support a would-be dictator, which is almost exactly the opposite of anarchism.
All the Trump supporters I know on Facebook and Twitter are silent. All of these terrorists should be rounded up and arrested at once.
Of course the coward currently occupying the White House is nowhere to be seen and heard - except on Twitter of course.

I can barely believe what I am seeing. My heart breaks for what was once the bastion of democracy. May G*d bless and help bring the country to their senses.
"Where are the police?" "Where are the arrests?" The precious police literally LET THEM IN. https://www.facebook.com/DianicaPhelan/videos/10165064759910553 Yet last spring/summer they were armed and ready at BLM protests that were infiltrated by white supremacists....
Trump should be impeached and removed from office the moment those electoral votes are done being counted. All of his enablers in Congress should be expelled. Biden's administration and the new Democratic majority in Congress need to take swift action to ensure that those who enabled this attack on our democracy face the consequences.
He shouldn't be allowed to be President for another day, let alone two weeks.

Ilhan Omar said she drew up articles of impeachment. If the GOP doesn’t tear Trump to pieces after today, he’s going to spend the rest of his life in a jail cell.
Nothing if this was pretty, but thought it was going to turn out a lot worse than it did, I am also mindful someone died.
I don't think you are an American because I don't really think you understand what happened here today. It was horrifying and infuriating on EVERY level. This is domestic terrorism by white people who don't understand if they were people of color they would have been assassinated. This is NOT NORMAL.
