They will all end up in prison and we move on. This is what has to happen to finally get past the American Civil War. We have to show that the United States has no place for them, force them to leave the nation. That is how we move forward.
Dude, there were about 170M people registered to vote in the US.
We are talking about 20% of 170M people.
That's 34M people.
Our current prison population is already considered way too high compared to other industrialized nations and its at "only" 1.2M people.
You're not understanding the enormity of the problem.
No, we fully understand the numbers. Most of those 34 Million are 65 plus so removing them from the civilized population won't damage the economy outside of maybe Florida. As for arrest, you only need to lock up about 2% for the rest to shut up and color.
They already consider Democrats to be nazis (for whatever idiotic reason that they have come up with).... and how does simply rounding up people simply because they voted a certain way not exactly what fascists would do? If the majority of those people weren't radicalized, then doing what you just said absolutely would. Again, if they break the law (such as J6) then by all means throw the book at them, but being a complete douchebag doesn't automatically mean you've committed a crime.
