Right. Just redefine the are from the WH to the Jefferson and the Congressional complex to the Lincoln as "Washington DC" and make everything around it to the VA/MD borders New DC or something like that.beef said:

I don't know. I think we saw inside the Capitol when the woman was shot, a whole bunch of people were like "oh ####, shots fired - there's blood, oh no!"
Obviously hindsight, but a great majority of these folks had no stomach for guns and blood and such

Maybe, I don't know what those guys carry. It could have been frange rounds considering they work indoors and don't want to deal with shots bouncing off concrete.

Big controversy at my daughters’ university, John C Eastman is a professor of Law at Chapman, and one of Trump’s attorneys. He stood next to Giuliani at the podium on Wednesday and helped to encourage the crowd. The students and much of the faculty want him removed. The President of the University won’t do it.

The stuff I've heard in the last 72 hours—from members of Congress, law enforcement friends, gun shop owners, MAGA devotees—is absolutely chilling. We need to brace for a wave of violence in this country. Not just over the next couple of weeks, but over the next couple of years.

I didn't watch the video, but my guess is that they have been trained to do only one job, protect the Congressmen and women. That is why they didn't stop the vandals and looting, nor work to save a fellow officer. They wouldn't leave their post because it could leave the Senators and Reps vulnerable.
I read an article where the head person basically stated that not one Congressperson was harmed, so they had done their job correctly.

Right after the Oklahoma City bombing there was all sorts of talk that it was the beginning of militia uprisings all over the country. And then nothing happened because even most extremists don’t really want to go to jail.

After the ugliness of the breach of the Capitol Wednesday I thought things would calm but big tech’s actions seems to have thrown gas on the fire

Surprised that’s a question at all. I wouldn’t want him tied to my university. Even before the attack on the Capitol building, I was wondering who in the world wants this dude teaching young adults.

Honestly I am not sure they knew. If you watch the long version of this video it is such an in explicable scene. The amount of pepper spray going back and forth is crazy. You can see it is stained all over the place too. Then the weirdest thing is when rioters start leaving through the doorway that is the opening the police seem to be are protecting. Then also once the guy with the baseball bat breaks through the window there are just rioters already inside hanging out. I don't even understand what I just watched.
One thing is for sure is the guy with the american flag, long hair and nike backpack smacked that officer with the flagpole like 5 times. He needs to go away for a while. It appears a couple guys help him up and then the officer seems to just walk away into the crowd.

Just saw my Congressman on CNN as part of the video showing him refusing a mask. This mindset is mind numbingly frustrating. It really pisses me off. He's been out there constantly downplaying it too.

Daily Mail isn’t my first choice for cutting edge reporting but saw this, which contains the video you mentioned and just the smug look on Marjorie Taylor Greene face makes we want to say something I’ll regret.

Zip Tie Guy arrested
The F.B.I. arrested a man on Sunday who was photographed in the Senate chamber clad in military-style clothing and holding zip ties after internet researchers managed to piece together his identity.
Law enforcement officials said the man, Eric Gavelek Munchel, 30, was taken into custody in Nashville on federal charges. One of the officials said the authorities had recovered several weapons. No further details were available. Charges were expected to be announced soon.

I think guys like this are also subject to be called back up to active duty, and court-martialed - losing pension benefits, among other things.

Found a better longer video. He doesnt walk away into the crowd he is luckily escorted by some people. Somebody takes a big cheap shot and jumps in and hits him on the head as he is being walked away. It clearly dizzied him. That guy needs to be found. I dont think this is the officer that died. This is a Metro DC officer.

Of all the ridiculously incompetent, typo-riddled and meritless "I'm suing because I lost" lawsuits that were filed for Trump over the past two months, Eastman wrote One of the dumbest. He's also the guy who developed the racist Harris birther theory that Newsweek stunningly published a few months ago. He's not fit to teach anywhere outside of Trump University.

So this was looked at on reddit and they think it's not the murder. Because of the uniform. Take that fwiw.

the father of the officer who committed suicide was in the lobbying business with paul manafort? https://twitter.com/yashar/status/1348313262174031872?s=19

I would take that probability over the other options if I knew my teammate was getting drawn and quartered.

This is the stuff to remember when anyone says that there was no intent for violence or that Trump supporters actually support police officers. Trump supporters tried to beat to death a police officer using the American flag. They tried to crush a police officer in a door. They murdered an officer by smashing him in the head with fire extinguishers.
The one woman absolutely nailed it when she complained that the police were only supposed to shoot at BLM, not them. Support the police as long as they’re shooting black folks, try to beat the police to death with the flag when they’re preventing them from trying to storm and potentially murder politicians.
