In only the most recent of many examples, John Emanuel Banuelos was arrested last month and charged with discharging a firearm outside the Capitol on Jan. 6.
Guy Reffitt, the first Jan. 6 defendant to go to trial, is currently serving a seven-year prison sentence for attempting to storm the Capitol while armed with a gun.
Christopher Alberts is likewise serving a seven-year sentence for charging at police with a wooden pallet while armed with a handgun.
Mark Mazza, another rioter, brought two firearms loaded with shotgun shells and hollow-point bullets to the Capitol, and lost one of them at the Capitol. He is serving a five-year sentence.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. says J6ers didn’t carry weapons. Here’s how wrong he is.
Spoiler: Kennedy is very wrong.www.rawstory.com
I sure thank the Great Spirit that I don't have your brain!
Apparently some posters on this thread are dumber than RFK Jr.! He was a very slow learner - but he eventually did learn the truth about the J6 weapons.
I suspect every protest sign became a "bludgeon.""bludgeons"......"flag poles".....lmao.
In a formal written statement on Friday, independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. repeated the wildly inaccurate claim that the participants in the January 6, 2021, riot at the US Capitol “carried no weapons” – and then, three hours later, said he was retracting the claim because he had learned he was incorrect.
The claim that all of the January 6 rioters were unarmed has been made repeatedly by former President Donald Trump – and repeatedly debunked. But Kennedy nonetheless deployed the claim in the Friday statement that his campaign said was intended to “clarify his views on the events of January 6, 2021” in the wake of his campaign’s controversial comments, in fundraising emails earlier this week, that appeared to downplay the actions of some of the rioters.
After CNN asked the campaign for comment on Kennedy’s use of the false “carried no weapons” claim, and CNN and others published articles that called the claim false, Kennedy sent another statement saying he was wrong.
“My understanding that none of the January 6 rioters who invaded the Capitol were carrying firearms was incorrect,” Kennedy said in the follow-up statement. He noted that “several” rioters have been convicted of carrying firearms at the Capitol, while “others assaulted Capitol police with pepper spray, bludgeons, and other makeshift weapons.” He said, “This behavior is inexcusable.”
Facts First: The claim that January 6 rioters did not carry any weapons is not even close to true, as video footage showed that very day and as numerous court cases have further proven. People who illegally breached Capitol grounds during the riot were armed with a wide variety of weapons, including guns, stun guns, knives, batons, baseball bats, flagpoles and chemical sprays. The Justice Department said in its most recent update on Capitol riot cases that 122 of the people who have been charged in connection to the riot “have been charged with entering a restricted area with a dangerous or deadly weapon.”

Why did it take RFK Jr. so long to learn this simple fact that has been widely reported? He has been wrong about many things! Apparently the Kennedy family is well aware of that because they have spoken out on several occasions. In fact, most if not all are voting for Biden. What do you think?

Kennedy is hurting Biden, not Trump.Will RFK Jr.'s J6 epiphany cost him any votes from the poorly educated NaziCons?
Kennedy is hurting Biden, not Trump.
Please tell us you at least bought her book in return for her lies for the cause.
No they don't. Kennedy said Biden was more of a threat to democracy than Trump. Democrats and Biden are headed for disaster.Some reports say otherwise.

Trump spent over two hours jizzing himself as the coup attempt unfolded before him as he drooled watching it all on the teeeveee.DOJ was all worried about a riot….but refused National Guard or extra help for Capitol Police?
So obviously manufactured.
Planned or Incompetence of historic levels.
Cult fucks love to claim they are dumb as fuck and not one bit corrupt.
There was plenty of evidence of insurrectionists with guns!
Evidence of firearms in Jan. 6 crowd grows as arrests and trials mount
Yes, Capitol Rioters Were Armed. Here Are The Weapons
Trump spent over two hours jizzing himself as the coup attempt unfolded before him as he drooled watching it all on the teeeveee.
Even that slug Don Jr. was having fits at what was going on although he didn't confront lardass Dotard. Remember how Jr's squeeze got paid a few grand to rant & rave screetching at the podium before Dotard unleashed his mob on the Capital Ye
Proving yet again yer not quite human,after all.Trump spent over two hours jizzing himself as the coup attempt unfolded before him as he drooled watching it all on the teeeveee.

Feeling good about yourself supporting a known criminal jailbird for POTUS, Trump suckhole?Proving yet again yer not quite human,after all.
That requires abilities,and a conscience that you
do not possess or care to possess.
