(23,002 posts)Soldiers have died to keep some things sacred. DIED. Closed their eyes on the battlefield hoping their life wasn't given in vain. Or screaming for their moms or dads. That to me is an important significance that shouldn't be passed over for the whims of a few thousand ginned up ignorants. How does this honor folks who have come home so injured their lives will never be normal again? To the point of suicide for many. The Capitol and Wash DC isn't a place to let this slide. Like they said, "It's the PEOPLES house." 2/3rds of us still honor that place. To me, the seat of our Govt is a different place to be doing these things, and , they planned ahead to go there. Lot's of considerations for sure. This wasn't an ordinary day imho. I dunno. In the grand scheme of things, this just seems like way too much patty cake. Civil people can disagree though. That's DU. Be well.
PS..the buildings of Wash DC are symbols of American democracy. Peace. Honor and all the rest. They shit on all of us because trmp lost an election and is afraid he'll be accountable for all his crimes. These folks were an extension of everything evil. And the whole world saw it.
