But once you’ve broken in to interrupt something of national importance, you’ve crossed the line.

If it was of such national importance, something that COULD NOT be delayed an hour or two, then:

1. Why were Capitol Police told to hold back and not use their most powerful crowd-control measures?

2. Why didn't law enforcement even TELL the protesters they weren't allowed in, and didn't respond to their interruption?

3. ...and even worse, why did Capitol Police even ESCORT PROTESTERS INTO THE BUILDING and REMOVE BARRICADES? "...Videos from the day of the attack appear to show some officers escorting rioters inside the building. In one video, USCP officers can be seen opening barricades allowing the mob to enter the Capitol complex without resistance...."

Sorry, your claim of crossing a line sure doesn't hold up, when the line is clearly drawn in such a way as you can't cross it.

I still think you are a very-long-term troll.

Because they Capitol forces were overran. At some point it was to protect the chamber and not inciting something they couldn’t control without backup.

why didn’t the president call in national forces as soon as he was aware? Why did Pence have to make the call to get the national guard, possibly breaking the law?

Additionally, they did use a powerful control measure and now people are calling it murder. They tried to stop people both with barricades and when those were breached, at the doors and windows. And in certain circumstances once inside. Of course those “patriots” who made it inside then crapped and pissed in public places, rubbed it on the walls, broke into offices, stole property. Sorry, this sound like BLM and ANTIFA. But it was “patriots”.

The federal courthouse was fire bombed on a daily basis for over a month in Portland. 40 days in a row I believe. If that isn’t a coordinated criminal conspiracy and insurrection nothing this. Yet we get crickets on that subject from the DOJ and the Trump hating crowd.
