Yeah let's call it what it is, a straight up coup attempt.
Fortunately it was a coup attempt conducted by the least competent group of people on the planet.
tragic
A few did. They never got to live out their cowboy-like fantasy of using it there, though.
Skill issue, if Wahlberg had been on that capitol things would have gone down different.
The timidity of the prosecutors is appalling. Some did bring guns. All intended to commit felonies. removed got shot and died. If it had been a 7-Eleven instead of the Capitol, every single one of them would have been charged with felony murder.
Which slur did you use that got turned into removed ?
tsk tsk, so much for the tolerant anti-insurgents.
I used the b word to describe Ashlii Babbitt.
And so was the Beer Hall Putsch. How did that turn out in the log run?
Remember that Hitler had an unsuccessful coup attempt before getting into full power.
