Not to get off subject but those thugs/felons were at the Capitol building way before the rally, so we know this was not an agitated response, but a premeditated felony crime not even related to the rally.
Someone else also brought up that members of congress are arming themselves. D.C. has the strictest gun laws in the country. Other than law enforcement, no one can carry a weapon legally. I guess members of congress are exempt from the law.

Would appreciate you linking me to, or at least telling me where you have seen the citizens of a country attack their own nations capital......then break into elected officials offices and steal......and of course one of the scenes that will stay with me forever...that of these people beating police officers into the ground with hockey sticks, that and the scene where fire extinguishers are thrown at officers. By the way, this from folks who "say" they defend police.
And such attack based on
lies..
.NO truths all validate lies. They were motivated to this outrageous behavior by lies....NOT one truth.
Please....I know of nowhere where folks like you defend such actions.[/QUOTE]
This whole incident is still under investigation. From what I have read there is evidence that this raid on the Capitol was preplanned and many of the people who gained entry into the capitol were masked. 99.9% of the people in DC that day went there to show support for the members of Congress seeking to block the certification from happening. Whether you or I or anyone else agrees with them is irrelevant. They were there peacefully which is probably why they were not afraid to show their faces.
There is video of at least one guard opening up the door to the Capitol and waving people in. They entered as tourists, walked around taking pictures, some of them sat down on benches to relieve their tired feet and suddenly the crazy stuff started to happen.
Trump had offered federal assistance with security and the DC Mayor turned him down. The capitol police had asked their chief for backup well in advance of the demonstration and they were denied. Everyone knew there was going to be a crowd in DC that day. Instead of demonizing the demonstrators who were there peacefully, ask why the door was held open. Ask why there was not adequate security in town that day and around the Capitol. Ask who is responsible for this. Let the investigation into what happened and who was responsible to conclude before rushing to judgement. Well, oops, too late for that ain't it?
