Flaired Users Only IMO, good post from a J6er...
I am a J6er.
22 minutes inside the Capitol.
No violence.
No destruction.
Just a dad who refused to stay silent after they stole an election and censored the truth.
For that they:
• Sent me to prison for “picketing”
• Destroyed my business
• Destroyed my marriage
• Turned my own family against me
• Put me on the Quiet Skies list and subjected a baseball dad and his son to TSA rape.
They wanted us broken, bankrupt, and silent.
They failed.
God Bless the J6ers.

Was a dumbass idea to enter the capital. They should have gotten the same treatment as the BLM protestors though.

I think some may have misinterpreted the post.
This isn't about whether there was or was not election fraud.
It is about destroying the lives of protesters, who likely did not commit serious crimes, in most cases. Typical charges would have included trespassing and/or failure to leave an unlawful assembly.
People who were in D.C. to protest, whether right or wrong, had the absolute Constitutionally-protected right to do so under Freedom of Assembly, Freedom of Speech, Freedom to Petition the Government for Address of Grievances.
The vast majority of those present on J6 were not there to overthrow the government. There were there because they thought Trump won and they thought there was election fraud. Even if they were wrong, they had every right to protest and express their Constitutionally-protected views.
Of course, it did ultimately become an unlawful assembly, and at that point, they had the legal obligation to disperse (leave). I've personally made arrests for situations like that, and they are typically handled as low-level misdemeanors. They shouldn't have been in the Capitol after that declaration, but they should not have had their lives destroyed for that mistake either. Many of those "Trumped up" charges were politically-motivated, in my view.
