Media: “Mostly peaceful protests.”

Hillbillies push past paper-thin security. Hurt nobody. And leave after a few hours.

Media: “CHAOS AT THE CAPITOL!!!”

And yes, it’s with an “o.”
Good synopsis.

Too many things weren't right with various things about them.
...such as?
Just a few observations...

Average age and physical fitness. Clothing choices including footwear and even hairstyles. (How many Trump supporters have dreadlocks do you suppose?) I saw several people wearing MAGA hats that didn't fit their head right and you could tell had never been worn before. Other pro Trump and pro America clothing covers that were designed to be easily donned and removed. Some of the facial cover being worn wasn't inline with a normal mask worn because of Covid-19 and were designed more to hide identity.

I saw video of an individual in all black, wearing a riot helmet, using a baton attempting to break a window at the Capitol. He was wrestled to the ground by two guys in Eddie Bauer (ANTIFA don't wear Eddie Bauer) style jackets wearing MAGA hats. They were quickly pounced on by another individual with a riot helmet. (ANTIFA DOES wear riot helmets)
New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

Where did I say that EVERYONE at the Capitol were not average Trump supporters? It only takes about 20 skilled agitators to make things go south really fast in a large crowd.

Again I ask...

It's sad she was shot and killed. However, she is not blameless. If she wasn't trespassing in a federal building she would be alive today.

I sincerely hope you apply the same standard the next time a police officer has to shoot someone that has committed a crime. Michael Brown comes to mind.

So you think you should be killed for trespassing? Charged with a crime, yes(the defense argument could be she was let in after the police moved the barricades, but we don’t know for sure), but killed?

Let's goes back to my premise all along. The police are not being trained to serve and protect.

I wasn't there so I can't judge what happened but I saw a witness in a video suggesting the woman was asked to stop several times.

Is that what I said? No, it is not. I said if she wasn't in a place that she shouldn't have been, she would be alive today.

Technically by the letter of the law, they don't have to protect you. I think it's bull, but the courts twist stuff all the time.

And I could argue she should still be alive today if she was just trespassing. We don’t know all of the specific details about her actions beforehand, those around her, and the officer who shot and killed her.
