Censure them or take them off committees but to strip their voters of their newly elected representatives for something so small was simply absolute power, corruption and racism on display for all to see.
Racism? No. The REAL racism was one of those thugs going on a racist rant about a member of the Legislature who is of Indian descent. Calling him a “brown face” who is Republican because he’s “confused “.
Let me repeat. They were assholes and thugs who got what they deserved. The racist was one off those asses who called a man of Indian descent “brown face” and said he’s Republican because he’s “confused”. But you love you some racists like that asshole.
The posters who introduced race into this discussion were leftists. Race had NOTHING to do with it. But the leftists are the ones crying “raaacist!!” News flash: being black is not an excuse to behave badly, and accusing others of racism isn’t working anymore.
They sure ARE hypocrites. They’re fine with locking Grandma with cancer in jail for months after walking into the Capitol, after being invited in, but as soon as action is taken against others on the other side who violate the rules, they defend them and cry racism.

I should have worded this differently.
What I meant to say is what provision in their constitution elevates, or otherwise deems PROTEST to be superior ABOVE the RULES of the House?
This is why people should know what they're legally getting into when one of their friends or associates suggests that it's a good idea to descend on the seat of American government while Congress has convened to certify national election results.
You most certainly CAN be arrested for what others do or have done if you are a part of a mob, such as the mob that broke into areas of the U.S. Capitol that were locked and or barricaded in some other manner.
Assault or Battery by Mob §18.2-42
When a group of people gathers together in protest, tensions can rise. If an act of violence occurs during the gathering, any of the individuals gathered together may be charged with assault or battery by mob. In certain instances, this means an innocent person could be criminally charged for violence committed by someone else.

Assault and Battery by Mob Charges
Under Virginia Code § 18.2-42, “any and every person composing a mob which shall commit a simple assault or battery shall be guilty of a Class 1 misdemeanor.”
A “mob” is defined as any collection of people, assembled for the purpose and with the intention of committing an assault or a battery upon any person or an act of violence without authority of law. Virginia Code § 18.2-38.
Groups of people may not initially get together with the clear intent to assault someone. However, when a group of people gathered together intend to use force or violence against a person, the group may be considered a “mob” according to Virginia law.
It is also important to understand that “assault” or “battery” does not need to cause injury. Any willful and unlawful touching can be considered battery, even spitting on another person may be battery.

That would be awesome if the justice system treated whites behaving badly the way that they treat blacks behaving badly.
Rush Limbaugh got rehab for his drug use, black kids get jail.
Felicity Huffman got 11 days at a Club Fed for bribing college officials, Tanya McDowell got five years for lying about her address to get her child into a better school.

Grandma with cancer pleaded guilty and got two months.. and this wasn't the first time she pulled shit like this. She was also involved in riots at the Idaho state capitol.

Then we SHOULD have arrested the hundreds of thousands of people participating in the BLM riots. But because it was for a “black cause,” which was based on a lie, Kamala Harris cheered on a big fundraising campaign to get them released.
The damage with the BLM savages resulted in dozens of murders and billions of dollars of property damage. But you leftists chalk most of it to “peaceful protests.” Yet when a WHITE grandmother with cancer is thrown in jail for months, you cite why she deserves it.
The fact that the two reps in TN were black is no excuse for their behavior.

Actually, hundreds of people who engaged in property destruction were charged, and the Biden Adminstration has continued Federal prosecutions in hundreds of cases.
Of course, 93% of BLM Demonstrations were peaceful, and the 7% that weren't, only a small minority were engaged in the bad behavior.
But Lisa wets her Granny Panties when she sees pictures of black people at the mall.

The white grandmother was involved in a conspiracy to overthrow the government. Most countries would have taken her out and shot her. She got a whopping two months after she admitted her guilt.
