The Proud Boys seem to be gloating about their antics at the Capitol yesterday. Watching video of their antics today I'm just wondering how this group came up with their name. Boys I understand because from observation they seem to have the emotional maturity of a 10 year old. But proud?? What exactly do they have to be proud about. They mostly look like comic losers to me.

I agree with you. What a bunch of buffoonery . But equally I'm concerned they were able to get as far as they did. Do they not have adequate protection there? Security doors and shutters?

Adequate protection was available to them but not requested. Lots of mistakes were made.

@pjmurphy The investigations into how this was allowed are going to be very interesting. They could lead to the very first criminal charges against Trump.

Low life criminals, most of them.

'That name' was originally a comedy-skit, and the group of retards at the capitol has nothing to do with it.

I'm trying to think of the words I want to use to describe these proud boys and the first that comes to mind is disgrace

They and their leader who resides in the White House are all a disgrace.

Lack of respect for law and order does not strike me as anything a boy would practice.

If that's what they've learned, they might.

Exactly! To me they are a bunch of lowlife losers and will always be in my book.

A little time in jail may relieve them of some of their swagger.

"Comic losers," is a very good description of them.

@pjmurphy I sure hope so. The last arrest number I saw was 80. It keeps going up.

I can think of some other words to call them also. Maybe they'll have time to think about their actions behind bars.

They are being identified and arrested. They can be proud of going to jail

There should be consequences for this type of behavior, especially for their leader in the White House.

One of my brothers was a Vietnam Vet. He passed on a couple of weeks ago. I am glad he did not live to hear about this. He was wounded and suffered and came away with a brain tumor cause of that war. He gave his all. This horror that is going on right now insults all Vets.

@pjmurphy I have only seen a couple photos but no videos yet. Soon as I saw a little bit I started to cry. I have no idea why because in no way am I even surprised at this behaviour but I think I (and like a huge majority of people) are getting so sick of all this. People not getting along, the ignorance and selfishness of people. I intend to watch actual footage of this but not right now. I've been listening to some late show hosts talking about it and some of it on the news but for some reason it's really getting to me. I'm not even American but I'm still human who is starting to highly doubt peace will ever come to this world. People are so disappointing. Comic losers is a great way to describe them! I'm sure they are proud!

Don't give up on America yet, Danielle. It's been a terrible 4 years, but I believe we'll be okay, a little more humble maybe.

@pjmurphy I still have hope for America, and a little bit of hope for the world. I guess it's more of a "wait and see" kinda situation. And from me to you, I wish your country the very best. I hope things calm down over there.

They are not Trump supporters. But I applaud their efforts.

Yeah, all their Trump flags we saw were just a figment of our imagination, and Trump urging them on was just misinterpreted.

@pjmurphy Anybody can get a Trump flag. Ever heard of Amazon? lol And Trump said "march," not "riot," and certainly not "breach the capitol." I suppose the Million Man March was just a failed riot?
