In reply to the discussion: I see NO GOOD REASON to counter protest on 1/6. [View all]Sloumeau
(2,657 posts)I have been reading some of the posts from places like Parler and TheDonald.win (the place where a lot of people from Reddit's The_Donald group went to when Reddit shut The_Donald down). Some of these people are gearing up for a civil war. Some of them are talking about how to sneak guns in. Some of these people think that the way to keep Trump in the White House is to cause so much chaos that trump will be "forced" to invoke the insurrection act. If Trump does that, he will start acting like a dictator. The Trump supporters will be looking for targets, and counter-protesters would give them just such targets. I say, if they want targets, let them shoot each other or shoot at the police, because then the police will come back at them in force.
Bringing a knife to a gunfight is dumb. Bringing no weapons at all to a gunfight is just asking to get slaughtered. The fewer liberal targets these Trump supporters have to attack, the better.
