They weren't intending to storm the capitol. They assumed that the election was going to be overturned and they were there to both support Trump and fight against "ANTIFA" whom they supposed would be out when the election was overturned. It wasn't until they realized at Trump's rally that the election results were not going to be overturned and Trump directed those at is rally towards the capitol that plans change (at least that's the case when you read the testimony).Slimshandy wrote: ↑Sat May 11, 2024 9:22 amSeems like if they didn’t do any of the shit that far right militias do when they train, they weren’t going with a goal of what they train to do…Della wrote: ↑Sat May 11, 2024 9:11 amYou should probably help them coordinate next time.Slimshandy wrote: ↑Sat May 11, 2024 7:33 am
A coordinated insurrection probably would have worked a lot better if they did all bring guns…
I guess they learned sticks aren’t going to cut it.

Like they threw out the handbook and just decided to be idiots lol…
They purposefully did not have fire arms at the rally because according to chatter, they thought that they may be targeted and arrested by Capitol Police or even Secret Service (good luck carrying firearms anywhere near a president, lol). Instead, these groups stashed firearms in various locations to be used in what they thought would be the ensuing mayhem after the election results were overturned. (at least that's the case when you read the testimony).
If Trump loses the election, these groups have little expectation that the election results will be overturned by Congress so they are grouping and making plans of how to address. They are assuming that a Trump loss will be fraudulent because Trump is saying so already. If Trump wins, they are assuming that Democrats will try to over-turn the election and/or ANTIFA will protest and become violent so their militia presence is necessary. Their plan in either scenario won't be peaceful and it won't be without guns.
