The justices heard arguments in Joseph Fischer’s appeal of a lower court’s ruling rejecting his attempt to escape a federal charge of corruptly obstructing an official proceeding - the congressional certification of President Joe Biden’s victory over Trump that the rioters sought to prevent on Jan. 6, 2021.

    You one post ago:

    I’m not sure why the fire alarm part is suddenly relevant here.

    You now:

    Yeah, cause it is literally what the article is about.

    Make up your mind.

      Uh, yeah I was talking about “People get arrested all the time for planning to commit crimes, even before they actually carry them out” which I say right before that… the fire alarm part is not relevant to what crime they were planning on committing. Are you even going to discuss in good faith or just try to paint the picture you already have made up in your head?

          Okay QAnon. Bye bye. Don’t talk to me anymore since you can’t be honest with yourself or anyone else.

            If you’re talking about honesty, you’re calling someone who is saying that invading the capitol on January 6th is a crime a QAnon conspiracy theorist, which is a bizarrely dishonest accusation.

              Damn I wish I was as level headed as you are.

              How’s your newish Thinkpad treating you btw? Got everything set up the way you like? Is the processor fast enough for everything you need?

                Yeah, thanks. It’s working really well. I couldn’t be happier with it now that it’s all set up. Installing Mint was a major pain, but once I got over that part, it was great.

                And I try to be level-headed as much as I can. Doesn’t always work, but I try. :)

              Woof, what a frustrating chain of comments that was to read. Nicely done for staying even keeled the whole time.
