Moving Along, but not settling down

 

House chamber on Jan. 6 as members are escorted to safety


Lots of rioters are arrested all over the country because their photos were smeared all over the Internet.

It looks to me like 98% of them are white men.  Of all ages.  Many are wearing MAGA hats, and many have those signature scraggly "Duck Dynasty" beards.  But I don't think these white men are from the ranks of the very poor.  Indeed -  one of those arrested is a retired Lieutenant Colonel in the Air Force!

 They are  long time consumers of Trump TV --- his own Apprentice shows, and Fox News.  

They are angry and bursting with testosterone.  And the mob aura of the event just fueled it.


I am so afraid that more is coming, but in the next round, there will be shot fired on both sides.
