re: US Capitol Building breached - peaceful protestors take control of both chambers

Anyone who forcefully and/ or unlawfully enters our nation's capital buildings should be shot in the face. Kind of important buildings, kind of important people.

The Target’s and businesses that were destroyed over the summer provided services that people want and need.

Our Capitol buildings are hives of overpaid leeches and corrupt bureaucrats.

Every politician should be huddled in their home in fear, just like they wanted the rest of the country to be for months.

Congress has reconvened.

That's unfortunate.

So I guess it's over?

So why term limits for president but not Congress?

There shouldn't be term limits for either.

Then again the Senate also shouldn't be elected by popular vote. Yet here we are in all our dysfunctional government glory.

I hate protesting.

Doesn't matter what group, it's chickenshit.

I mean there are protests that are actually peaceful and respectful of the rights of others and follow accepted guidelines or laws like any other gathering, and then there are what until today has been labeled protests that aren’t peaceful, don’t respect rights of others, and include many actions deemed illegal by enacted laws which were selectively enforced over summer.

I support the former not the later as protest. I still love our country and believe the latter borders on insurrection.

I don’t think we are at the point of our forefathers rebelling against King George yet, but i am also not naive and know the following should never be forgotten if that time ever comes:

“ We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."

Also that “A little revolution now and then is a healthy thing” - Marko Ramius.

There absolutely needs to be congressional term limits.

Vote, and get on with your life. Just because people don't get their way isn't a reason to protest.

It's whiny, bitchy and turns people off.

Destroy the powers of the federal government and make a difference on the local level.

Anyone who forcefully and/ or unlawfully enters our nation's capital buildings should be shot in the face. Kind of important buildings, kind of important people. Use deadly force to protect it.

These corrupt swamp creatures have done nothing but steal from you, me and every other American Citizen. They are not important and should be reminded that, We the People, are the important ones.

I would love to see the Trump crowd to unite with the Antifa and BLM crowd against these corrupt politicians
