Re: Antifa was at the Capitol Rally
No need for Antifa. GOP did it all. I met people who drove in a caravan from Seattle WA... Others from all over country. They came looking for direction, instead attendees got nothing. There should have been organizers, sign up sheets, state chapters with big signs for each state, there should organizers walking through crowd, handing out literature. Letters of greeting from Trump, maybe a free hat...but there was nothing.
It was frigid... the wind had the temp in teens. After hours in the cold, Trump showed went on and on with a shit speech about how bad the media had been treating him... People knew all this... they wanted marching orders ... a sense of hope... instead, they got the GOP. Then Trump began to sound defeatest. The crowd began breaking up... they began to leave in disgust.
Then came news that GOP Pence had stabbed everyone in the back... the crowd surged toward the Capitol... they went to the east end of Capitol and began climbing the scaffolding, essentially just waving flags. Some group tried to enter the building. A woman who we now know was an Iraq veteran and super patriot was shot point blank in the neck by a D.C. cop.
When I heard the shots and saw people leaving building, I tried to get away, walking miles in the cold back to cars, because I heard they were arresting Trump people if they tried to use Metro. I avoided all groups, and made it out on my own.
In summary, it was a colossal, serial cluster fuck.
I heard tonight that Matt Schlapp of CPAC fame blamed the dead woman.
No need for Antifa... GOP did everything.

It looks like nothing less than a civil war could save this country from tyranny b the ruling globalist elites and their communist cronies. Perhaps if Present Trump were to declare martial law he could straighten out this mess and hold new elections in the states where the black Democrat machine stole the election
Thanks for sharing your very interesting observations & experience.

As I watched the news with family members, they were all hysterical about the "Trumpsters" invading the capital. After listening to them repeat the media talking point about "violence is never acceptable" and condemn the "crazy violent anarchistic" Trump supporters I pointed out that at least they were challenging the powerful and corruption in the government and not smashing small businesses belonging to working folks just trying to get by like anybody else, they weren't invading people's homes and property demanding they give them their homes or interfering with the ability of working class to make a living. All of which BLM and Antifa do. My relatives all "sympathize" with BLM and Antifa, they may make tittering sounds about the violence but think they have a "righteous" cause so the violence has some justification. As usual, when I pointed out the contradiction with excusing BLM/Antifa violence but having a no tolerance attitude toward Trump supporters invading the capital they all fell silent, for a minute or so, but then, as usual, began to hammer me with irrelevant rhetoric plucked from the media headlines with absolutely no idea what they were even talking about.
They are completely clueless though, nobody in my family has lost their jobs or businesses due to Antifa/BLM violence or the business lockdowns ordered by the corrupt politicians serving the interests of the globalists so aren't facing unemployment, bankruptcy or homelessness. I pointed out, if they were, they might have an entirely different perspective. Again, that sort of point makes them highly defensive and since they have no counter argument, become angry and irrational.
I'm used to it, just a typical evening as the lone dissident in a family of liberals.
Film it and post it on Youtube--"All in the PDX Family"--lol.I'd watch something like that.

EYEWITNESS ACCOUNTS OF CAPITOL EVENT
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — Busloads of West Michigan Trump supporters were in Washington as chaos unfolded at the U.S. Capitol Wednesday.
As Congress was in session, the perimeter of the building was breached and protesters went inside, smashing windows and forcing senators and the vice president into hiding.
The Muskegon County Republican Party organized its own trip, sending about a hundred people to protest the election results. While the group says it couldn’t have predicted the chaos that unfolded, the unrest hasn’t wavered members’ support of the president.
News 8 caught up with the group via video chat on their bus ride home from Washington Wednesday night.
“Don’t blame it on President Trump,” Debbie Null of Muskegon said. “He did not call us there to have any kind of violence, he called us there to just show our love for our country.”
The group said it went to join other Trump supporters protesting the election after the president invited others to join him there.
Null said the day started peaceful.
“(There were) patriotic songs, prayer throughout the day, it was a peaceful protest,” she said.
Null said their group distanced themselves from the demonstration once things turned violence. The Muskegon group blamed the violence on agitators.
“The clips that we’re seeing on the news are making it sound like it’s patriots that did this,” Null said. “It’s absolutely not patriots who did this. We saw patriots pulling agitators away from the police.”
Dustin Magnuson, who was also on the bus headed back to Muskegon, gave his account of what unfolded.
“There was a man, he had this tan bag and he pulled out this legit gas mask from his bag,” Magnuson told News 8. “There were organized agitators that hijacked our event.”
News 8 has not confirmed that those that broke into the Capitol building were a part of another group.
The Muskegon supporters weren’t the only group to travel from West Michigan to Washington. Audra Johnson of Grand Rapids said she and a group of friends were also there taking part in the protest.
“I know personally that there was (election) fraud, so I felt it was very, very important that I be out here to represent West Michigan,” Johnson said.
Officials nationwide have insisted that there is no evidence of election fraud. Several allegations put forth have been debunked as misunderstandings.
Johnson told News 8 she watched as protesters stormed the Capitol.
“There was a group of patriots that took over the Capitol,” she said. “I went up to the Capitol and saw what was going on and honestly as a patriot, I found it quite beautiful.”
Johnson standing by the unrest that took place, justifying the behavior that has since been condemned by leaders on both sides of the aisle.
“I think it was an accumulation of people being frustrated,” she said. “We feel like our voices aren’t being heard.”

I think many of us can relate to your experience & sympathize.
Cops will be arresting everybody. Strange their strength at the Capital was so small. They were not expecting trouble?
