1. Yet if you violently try to overthrown an election?

You get 6 months and time served. Then again they were just wypipo takin' a stroll around the capital. They were just tourists havin' some fun and seeing the sights.

3. And it was a "lovefest," especially towards Capitol Police, Nancy Pelosi and Mike Pence!

Where 5 people died and over 100 were severely injured...
