    In court there’s a distinction. We’re not in court.

    I also think confederates were treasonous traitors. Sorry dude.

    Cry. Or don’t. Doesn’t matter to me.

      Im not saying this is a court man. I’m just saying your word choice is based on ignorance by choice.

      Confederates were tried for treason, but nice gotcha attempt.

      Nobody is crying. Just trying to see if I can change your mind on the idea that word definitions matters, but I feel like I can’t. You have a good day.

        The distinction of treason and insurrection is domestic vs foreign. It’s a legal distinction. And it’s a distinction I don’t care about. And you’re not going to convince me that it’s morally wrong to see them as equal in terms of a threat to our country.

        I’m not writing a textbook. If I was, I’d say “insurrection.” Sure.

        To me personally they’re the same in pile of shit. And they belong in the same prison.

          Im sure you feel the same for the whole CHAZ/CHOP thing. They took over several blocks of the city and claimed to independence of the united states… taking over federal land and claiming independence by force is textbook treason.

          I am with you here that they belong in prison, but not dead. That is all.
