    I will post this here, because it is important.

    Wednesday was a pivotal day in American history.
    Hours before the riot, Reverend Raphael Warnock was elected as a senator from Georgia, helping ensure a Democratic senate majority.
    Reverend Warnock is the pastor of the Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, the church that Dr Martin Luther King Jr once led.
    On a hot summer day in 1963, standing on the same Capitol steps where Trump protesters taunted cops, Dr King delivered his “I Have A Dream” speech.
    Black American civil rights leader Martin Luther King addressed crowds at the Lincoln Memorial, Washington DC, where he gave his ‘I Have A Dream’ speech. Photo: GettyIt was a plea to the ideals housed in the building behind him.


    Black Americans had endured 250 years of slavery and 80 years of Jim Crow terrorism, but Dr King did not try to incite mob rage.

    He did not try to stir the crowd of 250,000 – far larger than Trump’s – to occupy the building they stood before.
    Unlike last week’s self-deluding mobs, black Americans who listened to Dr King that day in 1963 had truly endured centuries of a “rigged” system and “stolen” votes.
    But Dr King appealed to the promise of the American experiment, to the rule of law, to the inexorable power of the ballot.
    He was not patient, but he was also not petulant.
    He urged the crowd to harness their energy, not indulge their grievance.

    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    Why would "Horns" want to make himself so obvious to the Cameras. Trying to make a statement obviously.


    Maybe he was incognito & didn't wish to be ID'd.
    The ones to worry about are the ones who have hidden their identity. Up to no good ?

    He's already been identified and arrested.

    A number of those at the incursion, apparently planning on returning for a second go on the 20th, are finding that although they have not yet been arrested, are on the "Do not fly" list, and cannot get any sort of airline booking. The widespread social media coverage is

    The almost simultaneous shutting down of all right wing nut-job communications channels is now suggested to perhaps have been due to a confidential memo from the FBI aimed at disrupting violence planned for the 20th.

    this might be of interest. or a Yawn "‘Toothless tiger’: Impeachment could bar Trump from future office

    Lawmakers’ push to impeach Donald Trump for Capitol riot could affect US politics for years to come, experts say.

    Its funny to see such a wide shut down of that app for apparently not being very nice. "After Amazon.com Inc stopped hosting its business, effectively taking the upstart social media service offline, Parler is now fighting for survival." The 10 million ish users are about 3.2% of the US population and I would suspect a few are just observers not users.

    I haven't looked at parler before. Noting I didn't bother with twitter that's not a surprise.

    A 12 year old I just asked mentioned parler might be a play on "parley" (from French: parler – "to speak") refers to a discussion or conference, especially one designed to end an argument or hostilities between two groups of people. The term can be used in both past and present tense; in present tense the term is referred to as parleying."


    Excuse me if this is too political Ian. Could we parley on the topic in a non political no stress type of way please mate

    Have a great day all
