The important question is did the police put up a responsible effort to keep the crowd out or not?

If not, it was a set-up, to make everyone look like rioters and insurrectionists, a staged Reichstag Fire for the eager media.

Looked to me like they just let the crowd in- and called over the photographers.
But I wasn't there, so ...?

I was right there with you brother, same location,Washington monument grass, same time. Only difference is, when I hiked to the capital,I didn’t enter the building. 3 guys were talking excitedly as I approached the lawn. They had just fought 6 to 8 antifukks who were breaking in, popo arrived and sprayed the 3 Patriots, they were tactically retreating and told anyone who would listen that it was a setup. They gathered their crew and departed. This was about 1330L.

Just a postscript after reading some of the comments (and thank you for reading): I reported this story as a freelance journalist and followed the story where it took me. I touched nothing, broke nothing, just observed and took video and pictures of what was going on so that people who were not present could get a look at what genuinely happened. I chatted and commented with police inside the capitol. No one ran or tried to run me out.

I spent 26 years in mainstream journalism; this used to be what it was all about.

When I saw pic of police with guns drawn & pointed at people trying to get in to Capitol, I thought....do not recall police pointing guns at Antifa or BLM in Portland or other cities where they rioted.

I know. You know if is demon driven nonsense when motor controlled police point guns at PEACEFUL conservatives, but standd down when VIOLENT DANGEROUS bkm and antifa are destroying the nation.

The hypocrisy and outright bs from the left, excuse my swearing, is outrageous.

Justice and civi,ity is losing ground to the evilness on the left
