    Most of this is wrong. The assailant was wearing pants. Pelosi was awoken in the middle of the night and was wearing probably what he sleeps in. If it is being reported by the fringe right wing it needs to be verified before believed and repeated.

    Paul Pelosi probably forgot to set the alarm. Is that so hard to comprehend? Some people just want to make it into something it isn't.

    The guy was radicalized. It's happening as we speak to many others and it won't stop until real Republicans stand up against it.

    When someone is trying to make the people in the other tribe out to be pure evil. If that guy truly felt that way about people driving under the influence he would think most of his tribe is evil too.

    He just feels that way about DemoncRATS. He’s done it himself as have many or most of those he knows and cares about but that’s OK.

    a rotten moral compass guides people who think that way

    You are a drug addict. Your addiction is legal so it is somewhat accepted by society. You would think being a drug addict you would be more understanding of others failings.

    Monitoring a residential security system is a bit different than providing personal security in public spaces.

    Im not saying this is what happened but the scenario as reported thus far provides an environment for conspiracy theories other than what so many have pontificated ….. DePape being a right-winger radicalized by social media, etc.

    Lol, I don’t think one turns on and off the 24/7 security provided by the capital police. Apparently, the security system was active and the capital police allowed DrPape to enter the Pelosi residence.

    While I doubt the Cameras would be monitored 24-7 even if Nancy was there, I guess now is good time to reminder you she wasn't there, so that makes your rant moot, unless you got something else.

    Well, the mainstream media has reported that the capital police provide 24/7 security monitoring of the Pelosi residence. Should we believe what the mainstream media reports?

    Do you have some sort of evidence that the Capital Police normally watch the security monitors 24/7 on a residence where the Speaker isn't even at, but didn't do it this one time? Again, it just sounds far fetched to me to think there are teams of people who watch the security monitors at congressmen's homes while they are in Washington...

    Link? There are companies that advertise "24/7 security monitoring" but it's not necessarily staring at a video feed all day, they are just alerted if an alarm is tripped or someone hits a panic button...

    True. To be fair to him though, smokers generally don't hurt anyone unless they're going through withdrawls or somebody tries to take their smokes away.

    He also confessed and reportedly laid out the entire plan to kidnap her to the police or FBI before asking for lawyer ... his lawyer isn't denying anything either ... just says he was sucked into the conspiracy theory world.

    Umm, even if someone were staring at a video screen or received an alarm how do they prevent someone from breaking a door window from a couple thousand miles away?

    Yes, because when asked that is the answer the Capital Police gave them. Only answer they can give. Should they instead say “yeah, we only pay attention to it when the speaker is there and maybe random checks on the 1st and 3rd Wednesdays of every month?” Of course 24/7 is the answer they give. Any answer different than that is irresponsible and adds to the risks. Jeez

    A lot like marijuana except no health benefit (it will make you weak sick and if done right kill you).

    They have an offensive stink to them, which permeates any space they happened to inhabit.

    Even a person with really bad BO doesn’t, for example, leave their stench behind if they sit in your car. Smokers do. Hanging the cigarette out the window doesn’t help much either.

    My knowledge is scant on this but we don’t know if every window and door was alarmed and if there was a breakage of glass alarm. I remember listening to salesman. My guess is they had motion detectors that have to be turned on when one goes to bed.

    Smokers also cost all of us money every year -- hundreds of billions per year in direct healthcare costs and lost productivity.
