I want to
start by apologizing to you for waiting a couple of weeks to write this blog. I was waiting for a news commentator to raise
this question. “Why were the rioters who
overran The Capital not armed? And,
how much control from above would it take to accomplish this?
The Trump Heroes
were not armed for their attack on the Capital. The cause was to disrupt the authority of
Congress to verify the results of the Electoral College, the same College that
handed Trump the presidency despite his loss in the people’s popular vote of 2016.
Some would
claim that the Trump Monkeys were a pure grass roots movement of the Proud
Boys, “Q”anon and other misguided simpletons
arriving on the Trump Train, but no, they were obviously under strict control
from above (or below). Folks, they were unarmed! These are 2nd amendment, right to
bear arms folks. You see them in your
supermarket. They wear a gun to shop for
apples. Did you see any assault rifles
or semiautomatic pistols during the insurrection, being carried by the rioters? I know I didn’t. Those orders not to go in armed were issued
and absolutely followed. And why was
this in their marching orders? Why do
they not follow the same rules when marching on a state capital?
One, this
was not designed as a peaceful march to
the Capital. It was an insurrection and
riot. It could be argued that they could
have been armed for a peaceful march.
Again, a peaceful march was not their intention. Their intention was to stop our democracy
from functioning by entering and taking control of our capital.
Two, a gun
battle would have ended ultimately in their defeat. Trump Monkeys do not yet control our
military. If armed, one of the Monkeys
would have fired his weapon in that riot and Hell would have been
released. This was a public relations
stunt and only a fool (Trump) would think that it would delay the Biden
administration. This nation has not been
softened enough for a successful armed insurrection. At this time, a gun battle would have been bad
public relations. So yes, January 6th was under very rigid
control. Please let me know if any of my
assumptions or observations are incorrect.
