Poll: Was the creation of the Jan 6 select committee legitimate?

[nickqt]

Not really, 147 elected officials didn't agree with and tried to help the mob at Benghazi but at the attack of the US capitol they fired them up, sent them there to fight, were prepared and standing by to subvert democracy in the chamber by voting not to elect Biden president.

If 147 elected democrats had supported the troops attacking the building in Benghazi and wanted to overturn an election to institute Hillary as Queen it would have been a better comparison.

You're getting deeper into the issue, where the picture in a few sentences demonstrates the sheer hypocrisy.

Obviously anyone who is able to objectively observe reality can tell that the Republican Party is a treasonous terrorist group. But we don't live in a country where more than 40% of the population objectively observes reality, so you gotta go real fuckin' slow with most of the population.

Damn you are continually proud to show yourself as one the most uninformed and willfully ignorant posters on this forum. Congrats on achieving potato status.

Based on a post earlier this week proudly proclaiming his ignorance is something greenman does for enjoyment.

So why hasn't the R leader done his job correctly?
Blame and consequences go where they belong. You do not get to whitewash any of this ever so fuck right off with your bullshit faux concern garbage you fucking willfully ignorant unamerican traitor c*nt!

Where we differ is that I don't see this as a "credible threat to democracy". As I've said here several times, my scout troop could have planed and executed a better operation. This was clown collage warfare, stupid people reacting without thinking. They had no firepower, they had no defined plan, they had no exit strategy, they had a vague goal that was never achievable. They not only didn't hide their faces, they took selfies and posted them on the web.
That's why the majority of them are being charged with petty crimes, because what they did was a petty crime.

You could search any condo complex or apartment building in this country and find more arms then this so called "armed insurrection" had on them. What did they find? 2? 3?

I think this picture sums it up nicely.

4 Americans murdered in Benghazi, 0 people murdered in the Capitol protests..

As long as they weren't technically 'murdered', then deaths are no biggie, huh? Especially brown babies in tunnels? Eat a dick.

Speaking obvious, but foul-mouthed truth to willful idiots like you does not make one triggered, just truthful...so try another attempt at deflecting reality dumbfuck!

So, dumbfuck, when you rant about gun control anything and inject people can be and are armed and just as dangerous with knives, pipes, spears as they are with guns, so why should guns be classified as any different a weapon, I guess you're being dishonest....or is you're being dishonest now?

Your dumbfuck dishonesty, totally willful, is just astounding. But then again, you're our tajjy. Grenade the tunnels all the way, baby!!!

Pipe bombs.

You don't have a problem with the insurrection except the number of weapons? What's the matter not enough dark people for you to care?

The question for this thread what problem do you have with the formation of this select committee?

We’d probably be doing better in the Olympics if we sent these righty traitors, their mental gymnastics to excuse away personal responsibility is top tier!

Not only are you a shitbag because you want to shoot and grenade immigrants, you're also a shitbag because you support treason against the US government by default as a Republican.

So, if nothing else, you're a consistent shitbag.

Watch my imitation of @imported_tajmahal ...

Meh is was only 4 Americans killed and they weren't even very important. Also there were no weapons found at the embassy. What's the big deal they knew what they were signing up for taking that assignment. Move on.

It seems clear that the person who sent them was hoping for more, huh?

They were beating cops, what does that idiot think would have happened if they found democratic politicians instead of an empty chamber?

So because it was planned poorly that makes it less of an insurrection? A poorly planned bank robbery get you as much time as a well. If you try to kill you spouse with poison but she lived because you got the cocktail wrong you still get the same jail time.

Are you sure your sympathy for insurrectionists aren't because of who they are. Are you trying to tell us your opinion would be the same if it were a bunch of Muslims?

How many dead Democrats would it have taken to change your opinion? Double digits?

The great thing about fighting stupid people is that it's easy to win.

Even the greatest of Samurai warriors, I am told, who could not be beaten even by being surrounded would eventually fall from exhaustion. One can't win against stupid large numbers. But I don't look at conservatives as stupid. I am sure there are large numbers of them vastly smarter than me. What I think you are calling stupid is actually arrogance. I think their sense of entitlement, that Trump couldn't have lost the election, having lived their lives among hive minds, gave them a feeling of certainty sufficient to justify the notion they were overthrowing a corrupt and dishonest government. And of course the Republican party was and is only to happy to put those thoughts in their minds. Unfortunately, there is a limit to how much arrogant lawless out of ignorance it can forgive. They will, of course play the victim instead of blaming the one who set them up out of his deep and childish mental illness.

Democrats will probably fail to do much to teach future generations to be cautious about how they behave because somebody might call them mean.

I can understand why you have the Benghazi thingi. If you couldn't both sides an issue you would have to look at yourself. You need to believe the 'other side' is evil because by your standards that is what you are. Too bad you don't know that your standards are wrong. Remember what Jesus said to God about the people who murdered Him, forgive them for they know not what they do. Too bad you can't feel forgiven. I think you would be a happier person if you could. We always see in the other the self we can't see in ourselves which is why a good way to learn to forgive yourself is to start by forgiving them.

Quality beats quantity, but quantity has a quality all it's own.
Whatever the reason for their venture, it was ill conceived, an act of gross stupidity that could never have ended well. That they all didn't die in a hail of gunfire is surprising.

Weather you're building something, tearing it down, or simply stopping it, there has to be a plan. The rule is simple: Plan your work, and work your plan. This is quite literally "getting something done 101". Using the rabble as a diversion would have been a good start to the operation, but there was no operation. They started, got confused, then decided to play with their phones.

No plan, no crime. I get it. BTW - How many crimes are well thought out?

You still didn't answer the question if you would be as sympathetic if the insurrectionists were dark skinned Muslims. I guess you are using the Ron Johnson defense. Comfortable with white crimes.

 

[pcgeek11]

I voted no.

I agree they should have taken the deal at this:

"There would have been equal representation among Democrats and Republicans. Nobody on the committee would be a current member of Congress or running for office. Both sides would have had subpoena powers. "

But after it was turned down what Nancy is doing:

"Pelosi will now run a select committee where Democrats are the majority and have sole subpoena power. "

Is not legit.

 

[HomerJS]

I just want to point out the people who are defending the white criminals from Jan 6 were SILENT when Trump shot and gassed peaceful lawful BLM protestors in the same city.

Just sayin'

What choice did she have when Republicans turned down the power sharing agreement?

Do you know this committee will be no less fair then Benghazi. Did you object then?

Basically you are saying despite the fact Republicans turned down the fairest possible choice it's still Nancy's fault. That makes all the sense in the world.

They turned down an option they should have taken as I said. They could still negotiate. I'm not doing a Bengazi comparison... I didn't object then and I'm not objecting now. You asked a poll question and I gave you my honest answer.

This is not legit in my opinion as it is too one sided.

Arms? I bet you counted that every protester had 2 arms. So vewwy dangerous.

You're too fucking stupid to even know what an insurrection is if you think Jan. 6 was an attempt at one.
