Section 0.85). " http://www...blications/terrorism-2002-2005 so if they used force & violence, they could be called terrorists... i don't know why i need to retroactively call those people that, i've never heard of them before however, Trump cultists were indeed terrorists today, they check all the boxes |

hood
rank | Thu Jan 07 11:37:36 2021 Today I learned that rugian is mortally afraid of a bunch of overweight women chanting shitty slogans. This actually explains a lot. |

hood
rank | Thu Jan 07 11:45:29 2021 A barechested man wearing a viking hat is objectively more fear-inducing than overweight women sitting in a circle on a gym floor chanting shitty slogans. Not that my judgment is of importance here. DC police judged the terrorists to be an imminent threat. You are suggesting that these loud ladies are in the same category. It is the judgment of the DC police and your own that matter. |
