And I have a new favorite "Dumbass Capitol Rioter Gets Busted" story...

[meadowlander]

"On or about January 22, 2021, Anna Morgan-Lloyd went to the Greene County Sheriff's Office ("GCSD" ) to obtain a firearms permit. While processing the application, a GCSD employee recognized Morgan-Lloyd as a person that posted on Facebook about the January 6th events at the US capitol... GCSD referred Morgan-Lloyd to the FBI"

I think this just edges out the stupidity of the multiple people who went there wearing their court-ordered ankle bracelets.

[gratuitous]

1. That's pretty good

I'm still awarding first prize to the dumbass who texted his ex and called her a moron from the middle of the fracas, only to have her turn him in.

[leftieNanner]

2. I like the guy

Who wore his work name badge on a lanyard, swinging from his neck.
The stupid really does hurt - because it makes us laugh so hard!

[ProfessorGAC]

3. Wasn't He Wearing A Company Jacket, Too?

Or is that another major dumbass?

[leftieNanner]

4. There are so many!!

It's difficult to keep track of all of them.

[mezame]

12. If Someone Is Keeping Track...

...then they've struck comedic gold. They've got the best people doing all the work for them.

John Oliver, are you keeping track? Colbert? Jon Stewart? How 'bout Dave Chappelle? Tiffany Haddish? Even Hannah Gadsby - I bet she could rock an entire Netflix special about the Stoopid Que. Dollar to a doughnut anyone, that Monty Python is already on it?

[niyad]

6. Are you thinking about the guy wearing his Team USA Olympic jacket?

[ProfessorGAC]

25. No, But That's Another One

There was some drone from nearby (MD or VA) who wore his work jacket.
Got fired the next day and arrested a couple days later.
So, now we're up to at least 3 of these geniuses.

8. The lanyard guy was in the staged pic with QBacca

[SoCalNative]

9. I think that was another

rocket scientist.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

18. Yeah, that guy was fired before the smoke even cleared

[FakeNoose]

5. From the arrest warrant (excerpts)

Thank you FBI for taking this trash off the streets.

[Mr.Bill]

7. Their definition of a law-abiding citizen.

Willing to break into the Capitol in Washington DC in a violent attempt to overthrow the government of the United States but applying for a permit for a gun.

[CaptainTruth]

10. The FBI must love social media!

So many of these idiots posted pics & video of themselves at the insurrection along with incriminating comments.

Usually stupidity has a detrimental effect on society, but this is one of the few cases where it's actually a benefit.

[Mazeltov Cocktail]

11. With all due respect...

The "special kind of stupid" award definitely goes to the guy who died by tasing himself in the balls...

... seriously, I would love to have heard that eulogy, I realize his death is a loss (no, it's not) and I'm not making fun of him (yes, I am) but not one of these trump insurrectionists can hold a candle (or a taser) to the sheer stupidity of this one.

That said, I really appreciate these stories.😂😂😂😷

[NJCher]

15. really???!!

I'm choked up.

With laughter.

[SeattleVet]

19. Looks like maybe he didn't tase the testes...

26. In This Case It Doesn't Matter

It’s still a great story!

[LAS14]

27. I'm so grateful for Snopes. I give them $5 everytime I go there. nt

[meadowlander]

28. If you believe his wife

who also insists he definitely didn't go inside the building.

[Mazeltov Cocktail]

30. And that's a big "if"...

Plus, I hate when the truth gets in the way of a good story...

[GulfCoast66]

31. Or the lady who was trampled to death

While carrying a don’t tread on me flag.

[BobTheSubgenius]

13. At least she can take comfort in the fact that she was trying to be a responsible gun owner.

Credit where credit's due.

[movingviolation]

14. Dumb, meet Ass.

[twodogsbarking]

16. Where would we be without the agitators of the world attaching the electrodes of knowledge

to the nipples of ignorance.

[NJCher]

17. maybe we should make

this a weekly thread with all the new additions on it.

I haven't laughed this much in weeks.

Imagine the FBI agents writing this stuff up in their offices. How do they keep a straight face?

[SeattleVet]

20. If it's a weekly thread, it'll be huge!

Might have to go to daily for a while, while the FBI catches them all..

[Jon King]

21. This is why I am not really worried going forward....

The utter level of stupid of Trumpers....from stories like this to the dimwits who used Parler to plan their day....not exactly a scary bunch. These are not uni-bomber level of genius madmen who would actually worry people. These are instead some of our very dumbest.

Now that we have our guard up and Trump let us see their true colors, I like our chances of defeating them going forward.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

22. "It was the best day ever I'll never forget it!"

I bet you won’t

[Evolve Dammit]

23. My vote is for the FL Dr's husband stealing the podium and waving to the camera. Nice job.

[mnmoderatedem]

24. I honestly think this type of thing eminates

from the highly distorted view of trump, and the fact he is never held accountable for anything.

Thus they do these things thinking they are bullet proof as well.

Time will hopefully dispel those notions, as the recent ruling on trump's tax returns and subsequent investigation will hopefully take down their false prophet.
