1. Cool

Frontline makes best in world quality documentaries. Of course, a humorous and exciting topic too.

3. What do you find humorous about the topic??

Welcome to DU.

[Carthorse]

6. why laugh at sad things?

I find it humorous because of the rashness of the action, the inflated self-belief of the participants. On the other hand, it is also a tragic topic too.

[GP6971]

8. I think you'll find

that DUers don't find any humor in what is happening to this country.

[Carthorse]

9. What about...

If these people get what they deserve? Will that amuse you? I'll enjoy it!

Watching the documentary now. Very good.

[GP6971]

10. No, it will not amuse me.

There is nothing amusing or humorous about this whole situation.

[Carthorse]

11. okay

I respect your feelings. We at least agree it will be good to see justice done, and now with Trump out they will start getting arresting.

[Ilsa]

12. I get you on this.

There's more than one way to process this recent history.

I hope to watch it tomorrow (dvr'ed).

[Generic Other]

5. Thank you for the head's up

For these traitors, the time to pay the piper has come.

[Carthorse]

7. I agree

I hope the people in government don't go soft on these criminals.

13. Watching it! GREAT program!

Set to record a repeat later tonight.

WOW! What great information here! HIGHLY RECOMMEND watching it! Folks, this'll make your blood boil! Those fascist assholes need to be LOCKED THE FUCK UP--TODAY!!

Proud Boys, Boogaloo boys, Oath Keepers, Three Percenters, militias, neo-Nazis, white supremacists--this country is in DEEP SHIT if we don't rein in these basturds!!

15. Saw the documentary twice last night..

If you have not watched this episode of Frontline, you definitely should. It was chilling to see the evil ideology the boogaloos, oath keepers, militias and the white supremacists are using to grow their movement. Their intent to overthrow our societal norms and institutions to install fascist and a race hating agenda is gathering strength and we have to be prepared to deal with the worst of the worst.

It was obvious they really do not respect good law enforcement and are working to recruit the worst of the worst into our military and law enforcement agencies. They are jack booted thugs who are egged on by that bastard tRump with insurrectionist and treasonous lies and intent. AG Garland and the Joint Chiefs of Staff need to deal with these traitors harshly.
