How about something like, that the ring leaders of this insurrection attempt are brought to task and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
Actually it is like some have gotten away with it.

Why not do something constructive for a change. Help someone who is trying to do something
What’s it gonna be, simply another round of empty insults, or … ?
In other words, not a democracy. I took a political science class in my freshman year of high school, the rumor was that the teacher was ex-CIA. Anyway, we compared the US Constitution to the USSR Constitution. They were very similar, but obviously implemented very differently. The US is in danger of moving in that direction. If we all voted for autocracy or communism, that would be one thing, but we are moving that way by manipulation of the legal system and failures in our checks and balances.
Really not the point. The point is, you communicated using “???”???" and thought that was valid. It meant something to you, but not to those who read it. You made a list that didn’t mean much either, since most of them were aspects of democracy, not distinct forms. The two at the top, representative or direct, were a choice, but even that warrants discussion. Morgan asked you a direct question, and you deflected with an ambiguous list.
From your response to me, it appears you googled “types of democracy” and copied the headings without reading the text.
Thanks for the reply. There are several meanings of insurrection. While there is no defined legal definition for the courts and federal laws. The public is led by news sources who generally interpret the same as you. The problem I see is that it was not an organized resistance at all. It was a mob. Therefore, it was not an insurrection movement.
“common laws of the land” is a good point. Lot of history on that subject.
I disagree with the statement “transcends the common laws of the land”. I think past history will show that the people did not transcend the common laws of the land. This was a reaction to government actions. Our nation’s strength is in the spirit of the people. The people are divided and the common laws of the land are not being followed. That’s the problem.
The question marks and list of variations in "democracy " was a direct invitation to explain which mode he was referring to as being the best of a bad bunch. Its not hard.
Yes i read it. The pretend democracy does reasonate with US politics with both parties accepting the sham electoral college system
There aren’t “modes”. And at best, you answered a question with a question.
cant answer the question or converse if words are left undefined
The request was
Tell me which system you would like.
How does asking him about types of democracy change how you would answer that?
Where have you been? That is exactly what’s happening.
More like the law moves slowly and some of them haven’t been to trial yet.
I mean those who participated in January 6.
Was he asking me???
Of course it was a mob. A mob infiltrated and agitated by organized militia.
In the days since the violent Jan. 6 rampage at the U.S. Capitol by President Donald Trump’s supporters, a fuller picture has emerged about the rioters, with researchers identifying members of more than a dozen extremist groups that took part in the riots.
The storming of the Capitol drew extremists that included adherents of the QAnon conspiracy theory, the far-right group the Proud Boys, militiamen, white supremacists, anti-maskers and diehard Trump supporters, all gathered to stop Congress from certifying President-elect Joe Biden’s victory.
There is a historic example in the Beer Hall Putsch committed by Hitler’s Nazi mob.
Hitler was convicted of treason and served time. The parallels are obvious.
The Beer Hall Putsch, also known as the Munich Putsch, was a failed coup d’état by Nazi Party leader Adolf Hitler, General quartier meister Erich Ludendorff …

How is that relevant? It’s the question you were responding to.
Because i said you dont know what you are talking about. Did he ask me that question? I was responding to his claim that democracy was the best of a bad bunch
One of the things Wikipedia does well is lists
Morgan and Chuchill were obviously thinking of the full listing. You only provided a subset of democratic types, which didn’t address the point or engage the other members.
If you think Amerixa is an Autocratic Democracy fine, i could see a defense for that point. But you didn’t defend it, you just put that in a list. A poorly written AI bot could have done better.
Identifying which version of democracy is being held up here as the best of all worlds would be productive
True. Answering the question in the first place would also be productive. Arguing about why you can’t answer a simple question is counter productive. Complaining that someone else didn’t answer a question when you didn’t, is counter productive. I could list all of the things you do that are counter productive but that wouldn’t be very productive at this point.
Naive idealism and the demand for perfection won’t get us anywhere.
But to answer your question:
The US Constitution with an informed and engaged electorate, who pays attention to the politicians they elect and demands that America strives to live up to its stated ideals. It include citizens participating, not just politically, but also on local special district Boards of directors or trustees, and such participation in the acts of governance. People who take “Civic Duty” as a self evident need. (hate going to the meeting, but glad to be there and to be part of a dedicated effort of cooperation and accomplishment.)
Why has it failed so miserably, stuff and the longing for the party, Hollywood, consumerism, dreaming up impossible expectations; and a distain for doing the boring job of maintaining and building. We have developed a disregard for the legacy we will be leaving for our children. And we have idealists who’d rather toss it all out the window, then get down in the much and do a little.
So we’ve grown into a society of too much lazy muck, with way too many expectations of others, and too little self-reflection and civic awareness.
Bringing it back to the convicted sexual offender citizen trump and what he’s doing to the Republican Party the former Montana Governor Marc Racicot does a great job of nailing it: this starts at 5:48

A shakeup at the top of the Republican National Committee seems imminent. Former Montana Governor Marc Racicot joins The Weekend to discuss what this indicates for the overall Republican party and why Donald Trump wants someone new.
You say you are well informed yet you still vote blue no matter who
I am living in California. In this state it is said the court system here can convict a sandwich for murder. I hear DC is a lot worst. The message is being given. Don’t mess with the swamp because we can put innocent people in jail.
