As Jefferson is quoted:

"When government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny."

Now there's a debate whether Jefferson said this but the message is still clear.

As unfortunate as yesterday's siege was, it sent a damn clear message that the Government needs to fear it's citizens or there will be hell to pay if they don't do the peoples work.

For too long has our politicians gotten away with a lot of bullshite and they got one hell of a wake up call.

Only time will tell if it last. Fear is a hell of a motivator. I would like to see CNN, NBC News, Twitter, Facebook to take notice that they could be next.

Only if the citizens are organized and motivated.

Yesterday was a, improptu clusterfrick.

Something else: never do a powerful enemy a small wound.

No they don’t. The trespassing was encouraged and planned. How do people not see that?

Nobody is going to do jack shite but go back to work and support the theft of trillions by corrupt politicians, Wall Street and corporate.
Antifa would still be fighting the battle and already burned down D.C.

IMO this is only the beginning. These A-Holes on the Hill are going to get a wake up call, don't know when but it's coming.
There are a lot of folks out there that feel they have nothing to lose.
