What were (are) the major "grievances" of the insurrectionists ?
There must have been a long list for them to attack our Capitol and to threaten the lives of the Legislature that we, the People, voted into office?
Maybe it was their passion about the "illegal immigration" issue? Perhaps they had bought a huge flag to take to the celebration in Washington, and they did not want to waste an opportunity to show it off? (Like all good fascists that wrap themselves in the American flag, and then tell everyone that they are "anti-fascists" )
What were their grievances?
Were they just "butt-hurt" because they lost an election? Do you really march on your government simply because you lost a fair and honest election? The Democrats did an amazing job, in the middle of a pandemic, in getting out their voters, regardless of what some believed was an impossibility for Trump to lose? Just like he had told them, "The only way he could lose was if the other side cheated"? (Heads I win, tails you lose)
What other grievances did they have? Were they there mostly to show their support for Donald Trump? They believed him when he said "the election was stolen from you"?
For whatever reasons they did it, they did it. I would like to know the honest reason they attacked our Capitol? Is that too much to ask?
A fair and Honest election ?
Somehow Biden, who never did well in any election before, won with more votes than anyone in history, while loosing more counties than anyone ever, somehow overnight went from 400,000 votes down to 8 million over?
Fair and Honest?
Go **** yourself.

2. Their goal was to hang mike pence so Biden wouldn't become the president.
They were terrorists.

4. Yes, they are terrorists.
The American flag was only a cover. (They almost beat a cop to death with one)
Isn't it a bit odd that none of them want to make a "plea deal"?
Another left wing lie.

6. When they don't get their way, they will do it again. IMHO

10. Not only that...
Trump will probably organize it?

5. I seem to recall
seeing some of them specifically ranting about “having their freedoms taken away.”
Although, when pressed by interviewers, they weren’t able to articulate what those freedoms were or how they were being taken away.
Loss of Free Speech through suppression on various Social Media outlets.
Loss of the Right to Bear Arms through weapons bans.
Loss of the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures by the Government accessing data from various sources including Tech, Phone, and Banking institutions.
... just to start...

8. In a nutshell: Their whiteness is not as valuable as they've been promised it was supposed to be
That's always caused some people to lose their shyt.

9. About 6 more months and some will be ready to "plea deal"...
in my opinion.
The Speedy Trial Clause of the Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution provides that "
n all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy... trial."

15. There were NO grievances
It's really frickin simple.
Dipshit Donnie promised them that he would hurt and kill the people they most wanted to hurt and murder themselves.
He told them...no, he demonstrated to them, that it was fine to embrace their inner ashore.
You know, all the behaviors and evil that most people possess within themselves, but because of civil society, is repressed?
You're seeing it everywhere today.
In a civil society, you'd never sucker punch a flight attendant. Now it's "go ahead" punch that "MFer" because you know you really want to.
He gave them carte blanche to be as evil as they want to be, because the mantra is all about selfishness.
Every bit of murderous, evil disgusting acts, from slavery to lynching, from genocide to exploitation, from assault to rape, occurs because good people do nothing to stop it.
He has normalized the evil that every person has inside of them.
Try to find cooperation and "bipartisanship" with those folks.
They'd murder their own families.
Our societal standards have been destroyed.
Our moral standards have been destroyed.
These people need to be shunned by society.
MAGA gear and clothing needs to become this centuries "sackclothe and ashes".
It's the only way to put us back together.
If they refuse to accept the standards of civil society, they shouldn't be in civil society.
