I wonder is there any video footage of them partying during the actual siege? It sounds like they are expecting to see it, I really would be interested to know if there is evidence that they were.
This video needs to be broadcast on national news, all over the Internet, everywhere. It needs to get to the people.
I'm watching CBS This Morning and they interviewed a man from Chicago who participated in the siege. His comment on camera was something to the effect of I didn't participate in any of the violence. I was in the wrong place at the wrong time. After he learns that there were cameras everywhere with several being live streamed over the internet and that his crime may send him to prison for up to 10 years, he suddenly realizes that it's wrong to storm the capital building.
America needs to get a handle on the hysteria that has spread through so much of the country. Some type of media policing or regulation needs to be put into place. I don't believe we need to limit free speech, but just like on a pack of cigarettes, a disclaimer needs to be added to any form of media, like Fox News, that participates in spreading lies and conspiracy theories. Before a user can view content, they need to acknowledge that what they are about to view/read is based on opinion and may well not be accurate or true. Maybe in some circumstances they need a stronger warning stating that what you are about to read/view is completely fictitious.
