The trespassing and vandalism was wrong and I fully support prosecutions for destruction of Federal property. I was stuck tonight by reporters commenting on this story who let the word "protesters" slip out. Each time, the person immediately corrected it to "rioters" as if they had been coached. Then I see this clip. The Capitol doors weren't overrun, they were held open by police. There was more security at the Clark County Courthouse when I voted back in October. There's no urgency by anyone in this clip, friend or foe.
Looks mostly peaceful to me...
We're they invited in? Is "inviting a riot" a thing? I have seen a different clip of officers helping to remove steel barricades. What gives?
