Black’s Law Dictionary, Eighth Edition, p. 823 “Insurrection” A violent revolt against an oppressive authority, usu. A government. “Insurrection is distinguished from riot, rout, and offense connected with mob violence by the fact that in insurrection there is an organized and armed uprising against authority or operations of government, while crimes growing out of mob violence, however serious they may be and however numerous the participants, are simply unlawful acts in disturbance of the peace which do not threaten the stability of the government or the existence of political society.” 77 C.J.S. Riot, Insurrection § 29, at 579 (1994). Key words: "organized" and "armed" The Vice President’s comparison of the amateurish January 6 riot with the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor; or the Terrorist’s 9/11 Attack is unconscionable, divisive, and political theater. January 6th rioters were the worst "insurrectionists" in World History.
