If anyone is looking for videos from the terror attack on the capitol, r/datahoarder on reddit has a pretty solid collection.

This should definitely not be downvoted. I hope this collection ends up at archive.org for future historians.

My favorite of these guys was West Virginia state legislator Derrick Evans: >The video shows a crowd surging through a Capitol door, past security, while an alarm repeatedly blares. As Evans enters an area called National Statuary Hall he celebrates and states his own name: “We’re in! We’re in! Derrick Evans is in the Capitol!” https://wvmetronews.com/2021/01/09/derrick-evans-resigns-w-v...

Presumably they are being blatant so that they can be explicitly pardoned, as they apparently think they will be.

The people who storm the capitol for Donald's feelings have self selected as being stupid.

There is no plan.

A presidential pardon won't help Derrick Evans get around the 14th amendment should he ever decide to try to re-start his political career.

funny how all the #resistance and #defundthepolice folks are actively working with the feds and law enforcement and cheering them on

Why is that surprising when so many of these videos show cops not doing their job in a very critical moment. Tons of evidence here against the police.

That”s the gray area no one wants to talk about: there were racist cops who let the terrorist in (and probably aided them logistically) and there were good cops getting called nigger, being smashed with fire extinguishers , risking their lives in a hopeless situation.

> Yes, We Mean Literally Abolish the Police

It’s not some unjustified fearmongering. Anarchists literally took over part of Seattle. At my university, protestors are demanding to completely dismantle the campus police: https://www.wbez.org/stories/northwesterns-president-and-stu...

I don’t think these people had or have any interest in being anonymous. They are standing up for what they believe in. A public display is an important part of this all, it’s part of their statement as Americans in America.
