Had many of them met a bullet, you can bet they would be seen as martyrs to the cause, creating a powderkeg and giving them some actual reason to attack government officials.

Again, this credit goes to absolutely nobody, it's just the way things went down, but there is a positive side to it. It could have been worse for everybody, including the Capitol.



Maybe I'm just emotional, but this was just sad. The woman tearing up in the car really got to me.
Yes imagine if this was Ottawa, it would be heart breaking, because its DC my brain tends to go into 'it's a TV show' mode but this is their country being trampled on
