Attacking the Family
of a Slain Police Officer

My opinion

 
Brian Sicknick dies of two strokes after being attacked with chemical spray at the Capitol Building
 

I suppose you could argue that there was no relationship between the Trump riot and the death of Officer Sicknick

He collapsed hours after the chemical attack.

He died from two strokes, and was therefore determined to have succumbed to natural causes.

Those who attacked him, with chemicals normally used from 30 feet away to disable aggressive or charging bears, were not charged with murder.

So, by all means, attack the grieving family.

  • Some of us born before the Eisenhower administration may remember O. Henry’s short story The Ransom of Red Chief, wherein a youngster is kidnapped for ransom, but drives the kidnappers crazy. They eventually pay the parents to take him back.
     
    Here is a story of young heroism that is hilarious but could, at any moment along the way, have easily become deadly tragic.
     
    It starts with the hijacking of a school bus, kids and driver taken hostage.
    Heroism goes to work.
     

    Bus driver keeps hijacker calm, kids safe.
    Kindergarten kids drive hijacker crazy with questions:

    • Is he a soldier?
    • Why is he doing this?
    • Is he going to hurt them?
    • Is he going to hurt their bus driver?
       

    Hijacker tries to answer, gets frustrated.
    Within 6 minutes, hijacker demands the kids and driver all get off the bus safely.

  • I looked it up. There is documentation. Scotties Toy Box is right. Ulysses S. Grant did predict the current state of contemporary American conservatism.
     
  • Author, executive, conservative public figure J. D. Vance warns that we, you and I, will be hunted down. He explains that when anyone attacks the inherently conservative values of the great American nation state, conservatives can and should and will attack and destroy. Yikes.
     
    Cato Institute’s Julian Sanchez only takes a few words to destroy the underlying idea:
     

    I suppose he’ll be on the must destroy list, along with the rest of us.

  • So how do you expose the insulting lie that the January 6 Trump riot was just an innocent tour group exploring the Capitol Building? Vixen Strangely at Strangely Blogged suggests showing photos of the liar himself screaming in terror while building an impromptu barricade to keep away from the deadly innocent tourists.
     
  • Hackwhackers reviews two of the latest Trump-riot arrests. One Son-of-a-Bircher told people on social media that pushing a female officer down a flight of stairs was the coolest thing he had ever done. The other was caught after bragging to his dentist. As in it-was-just-the-ether-talking.
     
    Kind of glad they don’t video the actual arrests. The fun might never end. Patriots could run out of popcorn, ignore the hunger, and die laughing while binge watching.

  • In this uncertain world, some things are always predictable.
     
    In 1963, President John F. Kennedy was informed that the Republican National Committee had adopted a resolution
    “saying you were pretty much of a failure.”
     
    Laughter filled the room as Kennedy responded:
    I’m sure it was passed unanimously.
     

     
    In spite of what us lefties who drink the commie koolaid might think, my long time friend Darrell, at Unabashedly American, and other real Americans know that Biden wants to allow immigrant Democrats to cross the southern border legally, that the administration has caused gas shortages, that the President has emboldened evil regimes around the world – authoritarians that very tough Trump had kept under control, including Putin, and the list goes on and on and on until, because of Democrats, everything has generally gone to hell.
     
    It’s almost as if Darrell couldn’t come up with anything convincing, so he throws every conceivable accusation his imagination can contrive, in case anything might take hold.
     
    Finally, he wonders how long before our flag consists of
    a white hammer and cycle.
     
    Yup. White hammer and cycle.
    Kind of like the label on a box of Harley Davidson Baking Soda.
     
    If he had thought of it, he might have added that since Biden had taken office, my friend had lost his car keys.
     
    So, in his mind’s eye, the failure passes unanimously.
     

  • Vixen Strangely at Strangely Blogged, is irritated by Republican lying liars and the lies they tell (I know. I stole that from Al Franken). But she advises Democrats generally and Biden specifically on the best way to deal with the lies, and the lying liars who repeat them.
     
  • Prominent conservatives never tire of making accusations, but this one has some validity. Andy Borowitz reports on Republican claims that President Biden is artificially inflating his job-approval rating by displaying competence.
     
  • North Carolina pastor John Pavlovitz explains why we don’t see a ton of Biden flags, Biden decals, or Biden bumper stickers on big wheel pickups. Has something to do with having more need for building thoughtful, intelligent government than building altars to a golden Trump idol.
     
  • In Letters from an American, Heather Cox Richardson looks to the polls and finds that President Biden is gaining traction. Once-upon-a-president Trump is gliding downward, while Republicans don’t just shoot themselves in their feet, they go all nuclear from knee to toe. In Maricopa County, Arizona, they go on snipe hunts for bamboo slivers.
     
  • Americans have been pessimists about the direction of the country for years. Ted McLaughlin at jobsanger looks at the trends and discovers a bit of what might be a reversal, with those thinking the country is on the right track edging up above those saying we’re on the wrong track …by a margin of Holy Mother of Mercy!
     

  • Iron Knee at Political Irony asks whether vaccines actually work, and answers his own question with well, Duh.

  • The Black Death in fourteenth century Europe was ghastly. Infidel753 says those times carry lessons beyond our current pandemic, a lesson on how workers may gain a new economic advantage and a lesson on how the Democratic Party may rediscover its soul.
     
  • Hackwhackers reminds us of the horrible humanitarian tragedy still going on in India.

About That Violent Overthrow

Let’s not forget this

 
Documented reminder:

The January 6 Capitol riot was not the first time violence was presented as a political tactic.
 
One week before the last national election, Representative Majorie Taylor Greene explained on video to hesitant right-wingers, that they had to vote, because if they lose the election they will need to join with her in political violence:
The only way you get your freedoms back is it’s earned with the price of blood.
