Had it been antifa and BLM? Probably the same thing with a little more looting. A few dead and the capitol occupied for a while.Thee University said:

Amen. What happened yesterday was shameful. I don't have to bring in my opinion on any other matter to state that clearly.jimdue said:Thee University said:

Not sure that I care. I am tired of both the hard core MAGA and hard core anti Trumper's pointing out the sins of their political enemy every time someone they agree with does bad things.
I am passionate about being a conservative but not passionate towards defending dumb things leaders or their followers do just because I agree with them on some or most issues.
It was shameful. Embarrassing. But is anyone really surprised?OsoCoreyell said:Amen. What happened yesterday was shameful. I don't have to bring in my opinion on any other matter to state that clearly.jimdue said:Thee University said:

I think a lot of people were surprised by that.Guy Noir said:
I was surprised the Police presence was so light yesterday. There were obvious indicators that this protest (riot) was a possibility.
Been nice if the Capital steps looked like this yesterday.robby44 said:

Respect.
We won't get anywhere as a nation until people on both sides of the political spectrum show a willingness to judge/condemn their own side's bull**** as harshly as their adversaries'.

As someone who has covered many of the riots last year, I can say this narrative is simply false. Tear gas, pepper balls, pepper spray, and flashbangs were all used yesterday, just as they were used on rioters in 2020. https://t.co/WdjJXyfa6X

The biggest problem was lack of preparedness and lack of planning by police security. They weren't ready.
