But that is not saying it wasn't dangerous - even 5% of a crowd of thousands is hundreds of people. And those people came prepared to kill Pence and Pelosi and God knows who else. And they should be in jail, along with some of boobs who just went along for the ride and got swept up in the madness.
1/6 was not a threat to the republic. Those goons, even if successful, could not have overturned the system.
The system is under threat, but from forces operating right out there in the open: Changing voting laws, replacing reasonable Republicans with yes men in key spots, and especially undermining faith in the system with constant lies.
All in preparation for the Second Coming.
