Our country overthrew the previous government...so we're all treasonous...

We wouldn't be treasonous, but the founding fathers and their supporters would be.

We don't deny the benefits of their treason or put an end to the treasonous government and install the rightful crown...

You can't reap the fruit without accepting complicity...

The rightful crown. With that logic, we should be walking away from the country and giving it back to the indigenous people.
We must be complicit in all of the wrongs put upon them. We’re also then complicit in slavery and all of the wrongs that entailed.
Right?

Early human fossils found in cave are a million years older than expected | CNN

Fossils of early humans from a South African cave are 3.4 million to 3.6 million years old, a million years older than previously suspected. The discovery is changing our understanding of Australopithecus, an ancient hominin.

But to claim others as treasonous for Jan 6th is hyperbole..and if you don't at the same time denounce our country for its treasonous start...it's just bullshit...but I expect nothing less from you rob...you are the most partisan individual here by far...

By that logic, the entire world is treasonous. Hell even if we were to denounce our current gov't and swear loyality to the Crown, we'd still be treasonous since they threw off the shackles of the Romans and Celts, et al, so on and so forth...

Furthermore, if England has recognized our country/gov't (which I'm sure they have), then don't we cease to be treasonous gov't?

Might as well follow that logic,..since idiots scaring politicians is touted as an attempted coup...

Our country is in danger:

‘“Mike Glover is a veteran doing good work out there, but some woke analyst at the FBI says, ‘We’re going to investigate this guy,'” Jordan told Fox News on Wednesday, adding that if “you display the flag, you own a gun, and you voted for Trump, you’re somehow in that category that Joe Biden says are extremist or fascist.”

The GOP congressman also quoted the whistleblower in his letter to Wray in which the unnamed individual accuses an FBI employee of embracing leftist politics.

“It doesn’t take a First Amendment scholar to realize what is protected speech and what isn’t … it seems clear that this is an instance where an FBI employee reported something because it didn’t align with their own woke ideology,” the whistleblower was quoted by Jordan as saying. “I think this is a primary example of how woke and corrupt the FBI has become.”’

I think Jan 6th was made to be more "political" than it needed to be. People went to the Capitol Building to protest (to be heard peacefully with their words) and there were antagonist there. We know it doesn't take much to get a few stupid people to do stupid things before mob mentality kicks in. I don't think this was a coup I think this was trespassing and willful destruction of property at best. Nobody was taken hostage and nothing was overthrown. I know that when it comes to what a peaceful protest is the left has a different view (fires, destruction, vandalism, looting, personal injury, ****, murder) when it is what they are doing but if anyone other than the left does even one of those things then somehow they are insurrectionist. Hypocrisy and double standards all because people have different views and opinions.

If an idiot tries to mug a police officer with a potato as his weapon, is it still an attempted mugging?
Did Bin Ladens crew not attempt to blow up the north World Trade Center tower in 1993?

Don’t play so friggin’ naive. Failure to achieve a goal does not negate the fact that an attempt was made.
FFS, Trump was probably rocking in his chair with glee at the possibility it might work for the three hours before he took any action to stop it.

You backed yourself into a corner trying to paint the insurrectionists in the same light as the founders of this country who broke away from what they felt was the tyrannical rule of the crown.
Complete fail.

I don't think an insurrection or a coup d’état was their goal at all. Who was saying it was, the left and Democrats. It's that mentality you see here in these threads all the time that if you keep saying it over and over then it becomes true. When it is not.

For those that would say or may say there were people saying they were going to the capitol to do that very thing I have to call bullshit. You don't reveal your intentions to the other side because it allows them to plan ahead for a defensive response. As we all know, the security at the capitol was intentionally light. Now who said no to more security? I will clue you in. It was not Republicans.

Well, the FBI also won’t answer to congress whether they had FBI agents or FBI informants in the crowd on Jan 6th, which is extremely suspicious, considering the FBI does stuff like make the entire plan to kidnap Michigan Governor Whitmer. It’s called a Reichstag fire event, Jan 6th is.

Technically it is/could be terrorism; using intimidation to accomplish political goals. It's unfortunate that politics have devolved to where people consider using threats & intimidation as an acceptable means to accomplish what they couldn't accomplish at the ballot box.

If you don’t think the attack on the Capitol on the very day, at the very time, that the Electoral vote that would oust Trump from office was to be cast was an attempted coup, what do you think the actual goal WAS?
Even a simple protest would show intention of something more, since the “protest” would be against the Constitutional right to vote and the election laws originally included in Article 1 of the COTUS.

I think you are the guy who has described the day as nothing more than people “waving flags and wearing hats”. The factual 910 (so far) people who have charges pressed against them should blow that theory into the water.
How can you still say that the events of that day and the motives behind them are “bullshlt”?
What REALLY happened, and what was the motive of the “peaceful protesters”?
