Man it's a scary state of affairs when people unflinchingly support execution of a President that literally didn't incite a riot. And that they think it was a genuine attempt at a coup. All I'm saying is, I think it's pretty obvious which side has most of the guns in this day in age. I don't recall seeing many armed that day. Actually I don't recall hearing about any. Except for, of course, all the obvious undercover agents watching it unfold. Who in their right mind attempts a coup without arms? I guess by having the police let them in the doors?

Ignorance is not an excuse. 1. Trump attempted to use fake electors to overturn the election in his favor. [1] 2. The wife of a Supreme Court Justice pursued efforts to overturn the election. [2] 3. There were tons of communications between senior members and the Trump admin on how to overturn the election. [3] 4. The Oath Keepers, an armed militia group, stood by on Jan 6 ready to "swoop in" on a signal. [4] 5. And of course, the President of the United States of America told his followers that "if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country anymore". And "We will never give up, we will never concede. It doesn’t happen. You don’t concede when there’s theft involved." And "Our country has had enough. We will not take it anymore and that’s what this is all about … We will stop the steal." And "Because you’ll never take back our country with weakness, you have to show strength and you have to be strong.”" And then told them he would march to the Capitol with them.

"let them in" after they had already attacked officers and pushed through barriers. Please don't argue about this event if you are so unaware of what actually happened.
