the felon install incited an overthrow of the U.S. government on 2021. As far as I'm concerned, the physical death of elected representatives didn't happen, but the attack murdered my country. We badly need to address and redress that violence.


I think any people violently deprived of property, freedom, life, should be compensated. In the case of Tulsa survivors and descendants, it is too late to do anything but sympathize. I already know I wouldn't join in killing someone for their stuff or utterly destroying what they worked hard to gain, andmaybe the grim facts coming to light will turn some people away from being murderous racist bullies easily swayed to commit crimes against their fellow humans.
But in the case of instigators, ring leaders and goons who destroyed the country, it is not too late to make them pay for what they've done. It will be soon, and there won't be any going back. It was made to seem permissible, so it's open season on the rule of law.
