So the Left Closed Parler and Gab is down, Twitter is blocking, Yep free country.

Unfortunately social media has been ruined by those spreading lies and conspiracy theories . These sites are run by private organizations and as such are not bastions of free speech. Newspapers, radio and TV have all gone through this. Fomenting insurrection and hate will never equate to free speech.

The guy in the horns was photographed at BLM rallies this past year.

Sounds like a plant to me. Typical antifa tactic.

The horn guy is just like you Jazz. A self described huge Trump fan! And a fan of bizarre and wacky conspiracy theories! LOL

Trump supporter in horns and fur is charged in Capitol riot

He described himself as a QAnon digital warrior, a shaman and ordained minister, a published author and former YouTube personality and, above all, a huge fan of President Trump.

On Saturday, Jacob Anthony Chansley — a.k.a. Jake Angeli — received yet another identifier: one of more than a dozen protesters federal prosecutors have so far charged with being part of a pro-Trump mob that stormed the Capitol on Wednesday.

Chansley, 33, of Phoenix was one of the most distinctive individuals roaming the Capitol Wednesday: Shirtless and tattooed, wearing face paint and sporting a headdress made of coyote skin and buffalo horns (not bearskin, as alleged by authorities), he was photographed flexing near the vice president’s chair in the Senate.

Carrying a bullhorn and a flag-d****d spear as he joined a mob of people who forced their way into the building, Chansley said in an hour-long, often rambling interview on Friday that he danced, sang and prayed there, drumming on the floor with his pole “to reclaim our nation.” He denied committing any violent acts.

Last February, Chansley, clad in his shaman’s clothing, appeared at a Trump rally carrying a sign that read “Q sent me” — referring to an online culture that traffics in conspiracy theories.

“You all know who Q is?” he yelled, according a report in the Arizona Republic. Local news also reported that he joined protests outside election offices in Phoenix while votes were being tabulated in the November presidential election.

The only theory I have chuck is that you are an deluded activist and not a farmer.

Have you been selling any canola? Do you even know what the price is? Or still waiting for that array to turn a buck.

Knowing which side of history to be on? Priceless.

Your statement is the stuff that gives me nightmares. As it should to anyone who has studied any history.
Before anyone espouses opinions on these matters, they should first read about the Russian revolution, about the rise of the Nazi's, about the Stalinist purges, the 2nd world war in occupied countries, about the great leap forward, and countless other 20th century disasters.
There was no right side to be on. Taking the side that would save your life one week, might cost you your life and property the next as allegiances change, leaders change, battles are won or lost, or leadership feels threatened by your own existence.
Read Solzhenitsyn, Stalin's most loyal henchmen, drinking buddies, political allies all eventually met the same fate as the victims they faithfully executed.

All of these naive useful idiots who think they will be on the right side of history by blindly supporting these movements would be well served to study history, espcially the history of socialist/communist movements.

So true, have you seen what has happened to private heelspurs henchmen? They have all been thrown under the bus after they lied for him. Useful idiots indeed.

Have you read Gulag Archipeligo? Quiet flow the Don? Studied the history books?

Please explain how this is any different than what trudeau has done?
The only difference I can see, is trudeau threw his people under the bus when they didn't want to lie for him.

[AlbertaFarmer5]

You have every right to dislike Trump the person, but to compare Trump to Stalin shows a gross lack of knowledge, and ignorance that is bordering on criminal, comparable to the extreme socialist lefts labeling them selves as being antifa, with apparently no idea of who Fascists actually were.
Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

[agstar77]

Heelspurs is more like a Czar or an emperor. There is no particular ideology with him other than greed.

For agstar and his ilk,,, talking and posting about Trump is the distraction they use, to not have to defend Trudeau and leftist in Canada. They may or may not necessarily like everything Blackie is doing, but they won't say or post anything against him, instead, Orange Man Bad !
