For Many of Us, Jan. 6 Never Ended

It unfortunate that you had to use this particular thread title for a political statement.

Re: Lest We Forget
Don't get your nickers in a twist Barney - it is a term of common usage, although it may have a special meaning for you.
Re: Lest We Forget
Perhaps using the heinous terrorist activities of Oct 7th would be more apt for thread title.
