Jan 6 2021 was the most AMERICAN thing I've seen in my lifetime!

The teacher in Texas who had to throw herself in front of her students because stupid cops wouldn’t come in the room - she is much better example of an American than those assholes. That was a sad and awful thing she had to do but also an exceptionally brave thing to do. She gave her life to protect children that weren’t hers.
Those spoiled, entitled, immature jerks that broke into the capitol and smeared shit on the walls and murdered police were not great examples of Americans. But they are great examples of the dangers of unchecked privilege.
The peaceful Constitutional transfer of power through the mandated legal procedure prescribed by our Founding Fathers despite the actions of a bunch of nihilistic terrorist thugs who tried to disrupt it, both inside and outside the halls of Congress, when the terrorists were thwarted thanks to the bravery of most of Congress and dedicated law enforcement officials doing their jobs?
Hell yeah that was the most American thing ever!
Or did you mean it some other way?
It wasn't in my lifetime, but the thing I most respect Americans for was in WWII, helping us make sure we weren't invaded in the Pacific War. Thank you for your service.
In comparison to those brave men, the Capitol rabble were total shitheads.
Literal traitors declaring themselves not only the true patriots but the very epitome of civilized conduct while tearing even the most fundamental of laws down and engaging in sheer barbaric depravities only to immediately try to paint a more flattering history for yourself completely detached from reality and pleading victimhood? Yeah. Okay. Unfortunately there’s precedent for that and what a surprise you brought the flag that best symbolizes it.
As American as chattel slavery.
“Jan 6 2021 was the most AMERICAN thing I've seen in my lifetime!”
Falling for the lies of a con man?
Threatening people for doing their jobs?
Smearing shit on the walls of places of power?
Beating cops to death with flagsticks bearing Blue Lives Matter banners?
Vandalism?
People of color, women, being scared shitless of angry white men for no better reason than that they all exist?
If this is your America, you need to take it back to the store. It’s defective.
Now, the PROSECUTION of the Jan 6ers….That’s a whole nother course of ‘My Country Tis Of Thee,’ fuckstick.
I’m sure the guy who founded this nation created a Constitution to ensure violence would never be a part of political process.
And no, threatening to lynch VP and Congressmen solely because their decision you disagree with is not patriotism.

I'd go with the OP, a bunch of entitled RWNJs trying to block the peaceful transfer of power was the most American thing I've seen in a long time.
American , sorry, AMERICAN , doesn't have to mean good.

Hello, I thought lunch mobs worked great anyway. Get together, eat, do some rabble rousing, get tired, go home. Then complain that an unsustained pretend attempt of a coup didn’t change anything, just got everyone else pissed at you because you tried a coup you didn’t have the energy to actually carry on.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
