alt Hacker News> All of the people there were trying to assassinate the VP?
Sure seemed like it. All those people chanting to kill the VP? Sure seems like it.
> How come no one's been charged for assassination attempt?
Corruption? Doesn't change the facts. They were trying to kill the VP.
Pretend what you want, there were 1500+ that day that certain people said were just tourists.
It was a riot and attack on the capitol in support of an attempt to overturn a legitimate election result. Isn't that bad enough? Why do you have to lie and claim that it was an assassination attempt on Mike Pence?
