Protestors Storm Capital

[Spongebob]

Turns out that a terrorist can still get on a plane pretty easy, I guess.

What I don't get, and I know I'm probably going to get skewered by saying this, is that for the most part, the type of people represented in that mob are largely hard working, reliable, law abiding, good natured Americans.  There, I said it, now let the condemnation begin.  I say this because I know all of those people.  I live beside them, I work with them, I played trivia at a local pub last night with them.  I was invited to a "Stop the steal" rally on a mass email yesterday, which I replied to by saying that I was celebrating Joe Biden's win and the response was a curt, "sorry to hear that".  They can be great people, but in this case they have become so infatuated by one man that they have lost all perspective.  I just don't know how to communicate political issues with them anymore.  On every issue they are to the far extreme, as in zero gun regulation, absolutely no abortions, religion should get anything it wants, reduce taxes to near zero...etc.  Just no compromise.  But as I said, they work very hard, they are very reliable, they'll loan you their truck if you're in a bind, they'll help you fix your fence.  I can't claim they are bad people.  Something in their mind has just broken.
