That’s what they wanted to the Federal Court building. Trump wouldn’t let them get that far.
I had a couple friends who are Afghan war vets tell me they don’t understand why Trump “went after a bunch of taggers. Who cares about spray paint?”
This is why Trump did it. To pre-empt something like this. If he had let the Court be tagged unanswered, setting it on fire was next.
Many of the rioters are being rounded up and now facing federal criminal charges. They are losing their Moxy in a hurry.
Tagging? They did brake into the federal courthouse and started fires while federal employees ran for their lives. The sprinkler system put out the fire.
The only preemption was preventing them from doing it again and being successful.
Your vet friends have been deceived.
