John Brown wasn't absolved because his attempted insurrection was unsuccessful. The South's attack on Fort Sumter was also unsuccessful in achieving its aims. It just took 5,000 times as long for the government to repulse it as to repulse the attack on the Capitol on 1/6/2021.Having said that, OK, let's not call 1/6/2021 an insurrection. Does that excuse a refusal to investigate it, or attempts to blame its instigation on the FBI? Does it excuse that it took 3 hours of begging by his aides for the President of the United States to use his personal influence to get the rioters to cease? Does it excuse that the stated motivation of the assaulters of police officers was the President's dissemination of dangerous lies about the election? |
