Talk:List of rebellions in the United States

What about the Business Plot?
Should the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_Plot be on this list? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1702:4000:7B70:3519:2263:FDFA:7030 (talk) 03:52, 22 May 2023 (UTC)

Bias
The very partisan statement "incited there by the President, his sons,[1] and his personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani.[2]" is a good example of the left-wing bias that infests Wikipedia and, sadly, demonstrates that it no longer has any integrity whatsoever. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.109.89.11 (talk) 12:33, 18 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Trump was charged with Incitement of insurrection by the House of representatives and although later acquitted, the majority voted in favor.  14:32, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
 * The majority in the house voted to impeach Trump twice. Turns out Adam Schiff lied to the FISA court 4 times asserting the Steele Dossier as a factual legal basis for the warrants issued to surveil a sitting President. The dossier was fabricated and paid for by the Clinton campaign. Adam Schiff knew that and in response to his censure said he’d do it again. A member of Congress admitted he’d commit perjury to unseat a duly elected President again. Talk about an insurrection. 24.136.33.242 (talk) 11:53, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
 * ok, I'm full socialist left, and while I think the details of the 6th are decently accurate, I have to wonder about the missing events from say Seattle. Is it simply that was local, and not so much on federal property, cause I'm sure certain buildings on the area were owned by the government. Pwrhaps im.mistaken there, but if we can't hold our own team accountable, it's a joke for use to call out this guys hypocrisy. They both should be on this list. For instance, the Attica incident had far reaching effects thst sre felt to this day, such as certain included and occluded events feom this list, and perhaps.we should learn the lessons from rhem while we can 184.167.43.65 (talk) 08:01, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

Many of the quotes and references you cite are from biased, anti-Trump news media. The timeline of events at the Capitol building shows that those people were already at the Capitol before Trump's speech and were not in attendance. The people listening to President Trump's speech did not get to the Capitol until approx 55 minutes later. What Trump stated in his speech was NOT insightful to violence. Not all of the people breaching the Capitol were Trump supporters. --23:03, 25 January 2021 (UTC)~https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Firejack007 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Firejack007 (talk • contribs)

In addition, if the events of January 6, 2021 are to be considered a rebellion, then so must the summer 2020 depredations led by Black Lives Matter and Antifa. These included attacks on U.S. government property as well as police officers. In fact, the events of summer 2020 are conspicuous by their absence from this list.

 * I sense a great bias by Google and Wikipedia for posting as fact that Jan 6 has been defined as an insurrection and that President Trump was responsible based only on the opinions of Democrat members of Congress, their supporters, and main stream media. Since that day reports have surfaced that many involved were not Trump supporters. The officer who died had a heart issue and was not murdered. And thats just one of many distortions that have come to light since that day. Trump has not to date been formally charged let alone convicted of insurrection. 2601:8C3:8680:4E70:1102:2E48:E8FF:FAAD (talk) 01:44, 21 December 2023 (UTC)

Brown's Raid was not a rebellion
John Brown's raid on Harper's Ferry was not a rebellion, although Brown hoped it would spark one. It was in fact a terrorist attack. No slaves joined him, with the possible exception of two or three men he had brought with him from Canada, who may have been escaped slaves. The reference to it in the article should be removed. J.

Coal Creek rebellion
There is no mention of the 1891-1893 Coal Creek Rebellion? According to some accounts the rebellion spanned an area the size of the city of Chicago. Several Tennessean counties were taken over for a period of three years and I think that merits a mention. However, it is worth noting that the rebellion was against the state of Tennessee and not the United States as a whole. 75.130.58.58 (talk) 23:33, 3 May 2023 (UTC)

Insurection
There was no attempt to overthrow the government on January 6 and the only persons armed were the Capital police. The inclusion is clearly a political view, not a statement of fact. 217.180.214.49 (talk) 18:58, 22 December 2023 (UTC)


 * It's a political view to claim 1/6 should not be defined an "insurrection". It was a violent attack on a governemnt body in a government buuilding in attempt to obstruct the government in it's normal and lawful course of business.  It was organized.  It was planned. It was scheduled. It was incited. It had leaders. It was executed.  It failed. If the "insurrectionists" or "protesters", whatever you want to call them could have accomplished their objective to seize the EC ballots, seize the Vice President (and some other members of Congress), and stopped the certification and installation of the new President they would have. Only Capitol security (and the shooting of Ashley Babbit) stopped them from it. Because they failed does not exempt it from classification as an insurrection.  It was their stated intent, in fact!  What they went there to do. Many of them defined themselves and their actions as "insurrectionists" even at the time.   Why should we not believe them?  Why should 1/6 not be defined as a (failed) insurrection when it shares the defining characteristics of all of the other "insurrections" listed on the Wiki entry ... and in spades!  How can anyone look at this entire Wikipedia list of incidents and their characteristics that are defined as "insurrections" and determine 1/6 does not meet the same definition?  That's just not logical.  It's political is what it is. 2601:842:C180:1077:13F0:946A:F3F2:6CE0 (talk) 05:59, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

1/6 was not mostly peaceful
1/6 was not "mostly peaceful." Do I need to start editing? 66.109.35.62 (talk) 20:27, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
