Arriving at this event was unlike any event I’ve ever been to. The excitement was in the air as the number of free spirits expressing their idea of freedom had an almost circus like expression every where you went. The peace and trust and hunger for freedom was palpable and more than I expected. Sure there were some there looking to make a buck off of Selling Trump gear but it only added to the uniqueness of an event that would either be remembered as Trump’s last stand for justice and free and fair elections giving no excuse to those in congress who might take part in choosing the unconstitutional slate of electors over the ones legally and regularly given by the Legislatures or it would be remembered as the beginning of a renaissance that we stood up for respecting law and order over egregious disregard for equality and justice and generally accepted American values and practices in election. The election was not only stolen but was done so in such a way that it seemed they were trying to convince everyone that they were while gaslighting us that it was absurd to say that it was stolen while denying any chance to be proven otherwise. Some of the frustration that some would express later may be understandable but because we had never seen patriots act in this way, no one expected it except for the very few who apparently had other plans from Antifa, BLM and right wing fringe groups and the naive that didn’t think it would be illegal to go inside. I post this so people can get a full understanding of what this day and event was really like instead of the picture that, as predicted, main stream media tried to paint that this was some kind of planned insurrection which it was anything but that.

This was your typical Trump speech, nothing new. I thought it was great being my first Trump rally but my friends were cold and went back to the hotel as soon as it ended while I want about to miss a piece of history marching to Capital though had no expectation of anything but a peaceful protest based on everything I had seen so far with the possible exception of Antifa attacking us on the way. Unfortunately, it seems we walked right into a false flag event that latched onto to some apparently penned up frustration from a few patriots as well. None of what happened at the Capital could have been foreseen so by those who marched peacefully within the rights given us in the constitution for peaceable assembly and protest. Most people left as soon as we found out that the protest was no longer peaceful at the Capital, myself included. From the side of the Capital we were on, no one new that people had gone inside during the time we were there. Only after going to the back side did I learn that people had gone inside and a girl (Ashli Babbitt) had been shot and killed. It was then that I decided it was time to leave. I would later learn that Ashli was part of the caravan we came up with out of Georgia.

After maybe half a million people experience a completely peaceful protest with 100% civil obedience by all, chaos broke out in a completely different spirit that was experienced than what was shared by all prior at the ellipse where Trump and others spoke and in the peaceful March towards the capital. The people there had a unity and shared trust that I don’t think can be put in words. Unfortunately, the event got hijacked by Antifa as we were warned before arriving to DC, and the fools and the naive. This was one of the many unique interactions of some of the best Americans anywhere who came to excercise their constitutional right to a peaceful assembly and protest keeping all law and order of man and God.
