No, don't give them chance to make martyrs.

The best way by far, is as will happen, the long slow tedious drip, drip, drip, of the legal system. To be half forgotten and lost, their one day of delusional excitement, fading into ancient history, while they are mired in the bureaucratic tangles, seated behind growing piles of paper, for years piled on years, with a jail sentence at the end seeming like a relief, and growing old an escape. Since most of them were on a thoughtless, childish and impatient thrill ride, that is by far the best ending.

I also wish that the 1/6 attackers had been treated like the protectors at the Dakota Access pipeline. Blood and all.

It is a political problem which is now in the hands of politicians keen to stop it from happening again. Of course, things always happen again so that part is futile. They will handle it from here and most of us will accept their decisions (which will be controversial for no one except the 45 Cult) so I don’t have to watch other than for a fast amusing moment. Our tribe is guaranteed a good time but will be angry about what the bipartisan outcome says. “Just like it ever was.”

This should be the equivalent of the September 15, 1963 Church bomb in Birmingham Alabama that killed four young black girls.

It's time Republicans recognize themselves as the terrorist they are, you can be an American or you can be a terrorist you don't get to be both and still play the patriot game with real patriots.
