Jim,
I didn't state that it could be extrapolated to everyone who attended the insurrection. However:
"A noose seen hanging from a gallows outside the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6 insurrection is in the custody of federal agents."
"As rioters bludgeoned, beat and berated police inside the Capitol and out, a gallows with a bright orange noose was erected as marauders screamed, “Hang Mike Pence.”

The gallows I saw might have helped a person's effort to hang and dry his socks.
Here's a picture of the gallows. Does it look like something to hang socks on to you?

Seriously, you need to have a cognitive reboot...

WHERE ARE THE NECESSARY SUPPORTS? 
Do you see a person hanging on to it and balancing it so a picture can be taken of it?
Would you want to place your own head in that noose on those gallows?

Can't believe you guys are arguing if a gallows is adequate to do the job. 
I can, after reading the myriad of their ludicrous replies. The gallows wasn't real because it wasn't up up to their specs, the noose wasn't real because it was orange, etc etc. People have hanged themselves by their own shoe laces dangling from the equivalent of a 2x4 but the obvious gallows with a noose is somehow out of the question...Sheesh!

The cartoonish construction is more evidence that they were not going to hang anybody.
Lol! Where there's a will, there's a way:

" makeshift gallows stood, complete with sturdy wooden steps and the noose. Guns and pipe bombs had been stashed in the vicinity"

They also got within a 100 feet of Pence who was hiding in a room before being evacuated from the building...

I'll remember that as I reread the articles about the guys who hung themselves with their shoelaces....

Actually, no. Fox News propagandist Gutfeld, on the other hand, is since he's requiring the Trumptoids attending his live shows in Texas to present proof of vaccination in order to be admitted to his show. Good luck with that...
