I don’t want hear any crap from the right wing about Antifa. There were marches and rallies protesting Trump’s election but they didn’t involve guns.
Make no mistake, our GOP legislators are showing their true colors – They don't care about the people, they care about power and trying to take down a Democratic Governor – a woman, no less. https://t.co/SLgDNbRCg8

I always wonder what wrong in the lives of these young men that they ended up like this. https://t.co/OOuRChi6iB

Let’s be clear about something. Cammo-clad paramilitary fetishists festooned in tactical gear and carrying assault rifles storming our state capitols while “protesting” is obscene. It is an assault on the sanctity of representative democracy and our American system.

When you need guns to make your “point” it’s usually a clue that you can’t rely on the strength of your ideas https://t.co/FJqZfOdZ1X

When you show up with rifles, it stops being a protest and becomes a threat. https://t.co/cSzKwu0z6K

Forget “the age of Trump” shit. That frames it as if it has only been around the last few years. He is an accelerant, yes. But white men have used firearms to convey their vitriol, bigotries, and insecurities since the very founding of this republic. This has always been America. https://t.co/kyy8PXxcVt

If they were black or brown or Muslim it would have been a bloodbath. Cops would have unleashed hell on them. Fox News would be ranting about "terrorists!" https://t.co/KtfaM7iAeU

Armed extremists are threatening Michigan lawmakers who are meeting at the statehouse to consider extending the governor's stay-at-home order before it expires tonight. They demanded to be let onto the House floor, chanting, “Let us in!" #mileg https://t.co/QGo1TQlJ9D
