This is the original question

Do you think it is ever justified for citizens to take violent action against the government, or is it never justified?

It's scary that 66% do not think it is sometimes justified. BUT this question was asked with jan 6th in mind. Meaning this question does not fit a general purpose question because the mind of people was tricked into thinking about jan 6th.

If 66% of the people would actually think it was never justified america would have another problem on its long sad list of problems.
