Maybe it's made out of 7' versions of this?

Video of riot being held back by police

Impossible to say what the flashpoint will be, too many variables. With state and federal elections no longer fair and able to be stolen at a whim, a complete lack of courage by those representing you to really push back, and little chance of our courts defending your rights, what can the average Joe do? The left has now almost 100% control of the levers of power, and an ability to coordinate between them that is frighteningly effective. To me, the scary thing are leftist leaders calling for additional persecution against the 74 million. It seems that more "James Hodgkinson events" will occur given how many unhinged or mentally ill there are. Also, because complete overreach is what Dems do, this will be escalated.

Im now of the belief that there is ultimately a 100% chance this will go violent on a large scale at some point, because it has to. The left won't back down and knows they hold most of the cards. We are probably leading up to Boston Tea Party moments but Lexington Green II is on the horizon.

Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There's a battle outside ragin'.
It'll soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'.

Video of riot being held back by police

Not sure if your point is what you say or if you are being facetious. I would hope the latter.

Here is what I see. Riot is a stretch, but still applicable in the fringe sense. A large group of people standing fairly still, pushing forward while the capitol police batter the close people with batons and shields. At the start they are even obeying police commands and backing out. Eventually, the people in front grab shields where they can to avoid getting battered. I don't see much at all of "rioters" attacking police, just pushing forward. All the over the top titles on these videos are not appropriate when you compare this video to so many from the previous year where antifa was actively trying to maim/kill police, which were all labelled mostly peaceful or protesters.

Too much hypocritical flying around.

And yes, each person in the video is doing wrong and needs to stand for what they did. But so should all the rioters in seattle, minneapolis and so many other places, which were regularly freed to perpetrate more the next night.

I'm saying the video shows the truth. It is a riot. Did you see the damage done to the building? The people that did the damage are criminals. I did not make the video. People have died from this riot. I did not post the video for the title. I posted the video for its depiction of the event.

The capitol police operate at the responsibility of the heads of the House and Senate. That would be Pelosi and McConnell. It used to be a direct leadership connection, but they added a board of officials in there now. Technically still operate under Pelosi and McConnell. So when Pelosi starts grandstanding about how the capitol police were wholly unprepared and failed... well.... what does that really say?

Hahaha....

Like there's such a thing as "government accountability".

[Delfuego]

Are we really arguing semantic of what is, or is not a riot? Whatever it was, it was shameful.

Capitol Police officer, Brian Sicknick, died Thursday night from injuries suffered during the riot...

Sicknick, 42, was hit in the head with a fire extinguisher during a struggle, two law enforcement officials said,
