Two Texans, Ryan Nichols And Alex Harkrider Arrested, Charged For Alleged Participation In US Capitol Riots

A witness provided both Facebook accounts to the FBI on the 7th showing both men at Capitol riots on the January 6th. Another witness called about the pair, saying, they had seen social media “showing Alex stating they were planning a civil war.”


Ryan Taylor Nichols and Alex Kirk Harkrider at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2020. (courtesy: Facebook)

Nichols, who’s from Longview was charged with: Conspiracy and unlawful entry with dangerous weapon, violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds, aiding and abetting, civil disorder and assault on a federal officer using a deadly or dangerous weapon.

He’s alleged to have carried a can of OC/Pepper spray and a crowbar during the siege.

In a photo of the pair, Nichols is holding a red bullhorn and Harkrider is wearing a tactical vest. And in a video posted online, Nichols is yelling into the bullhorn in the direction of the large crowd, “If you have a weapon, you need to get your weapon!” In yet another video shared on social media, the 30-year-old yells, “This is the second revolution right here folks! […] This is not a peaceful protest.”

Former MMA Fighter Scott Fairlamb Charged With Punching Cop in Capitol Riots

Former mixed martial arts fighter Scott "Wildman" Fairlamb of Sussex, New Jersey was charged Friday with assaulting a federal officer during the riot at the U.S. Capitol in January.

Fairlamb was allegedly captured on video participating in the riot which saw supporters of President Donald Trump breach the Capitol building during the Congressional certification of President Joe Biden's victory in the Electoral College. Five individuals died in connection with the riot. Many members of the mob live-streamed their participation in the riot on social media. Fairlamb was identified through images posted online.

According to an affidavit from the U.S. Department of Justice, Fairlamb was allegedly shown in a video in the act of punching a federal officer in the head. Fairlamb also allegedly posted a video of himself at the riot on his Facebook page in which he can be seen carrying a collapsible baton. "What Patriots do?" Fairlamb said in a since-deleted video. "We f*ckin' disarm them, and then we storm f*ckin the Capitol."

Can MMA fighters fight on the street, the answer is yes, but with a caveat! Trained fighters can only fight on the streets when they or others are the victims of an attack or they are deemed to be in mortal danger.

A trained martial artist, like any other member of the public, is not allowed to participate in unsanctioned street fighting or even worse, participate in the attack of another member of the public.

That is exactly where some magat would be residing in this state. I know a lot about the place because I used to go up there for July/August to escape the heat and humidity. Because there’s a mountain it stays cool in the summer.

The men up there pretty much all have that scruffy beard/plaid shirt/baseball cap thing going on. One time a girlfriend came up for the weekend and asked, “Are there any men up here with teeth?”

The FBI agrees and is hoping that public help keeps rolling in.

“The tips have been crucial,” the FBI’s Shero said. “We hope that they’ll continue to do that even with new photos as this keeps going on.

In other words, smash that share button.

They should be charged w/ more immediate or 'higher' status crimes, being that they are elected officials in the US and thus, have a constitutional duty to support and defend the Constitution. They didn't. They should all be stripped of their elected offices, and forbidden to ever run for an elected office again.

Tue Feb 16, 2021, 04:44 PM
Feb 2021

The insurrectionists' 1/6 actions have manifested results. The results are contrary to the intentions and desires of the mob.
However, the greater nation is getting to see the rather immediate karmic payments owed by the obstructionists.

I am impressed seeing the USA's civic-majority of civil-citizens rejecting domestic-terrorists, who are being outed by family, friends, neighbors, coworkers, lovers and others of their own worlds.

The 'what-it-is-ness' now is satisfying the common desire to see immediate, rather than delayed justice (comeuppance).
The 'what-it-is-ness' now is ripping off the band-aid of fiction of masked-mob anonymity as some kind of karmic vaccination.

*The word Bhagavan can be thought of as representing the broadest, most inclusive, understanding of everything; kind of a unified-force-field understanding (standing under) all order and chaos.

He told them to march to the Capitol, and of course he was going with them They were only there because their messiah asked them to be there and to go take back their country, because it was being stolen from them, right? Surely their messiah wouldn't leave them hanging, right?

Maybe not, huh? Maybe their messiah was just using them and then threw them under the bus? Gee, 'ya think?
