Look at the numbers:

About 250,000 people attended the rally.

About 1000 people (less than 4/10 of 1%) entered the Capitol, many through doors opened by Capitol police or employees.

How many were actually violent? Say 500. If so, less than 2/10 of 1% were violent.

How many of the violent protestors were Antifa or other radicals pretending to be Trump supporters?

How many agents or employees of the government were present and :

a). encouraged or facilitated people entering the Capitol
b). observed violent acts on the Capitol grounds and did nothing to stop it.
c). infiltrated groups associated with the violence before the even, and were aware of the plans for violence, and did nothing to stop the violence.

Look at the data. It was a huge crowd of about 250,000 people. Less than .002% of the crowd was involved in violence.

Correction: the rally where Trump spoke was at least 1,000,000. About 250,000 of us then walked 40 minutes to the Capitol where we continued as a loud, angry and peaceful crowd.

A few people climbed the scaffolding and waved flags.

The nay violence I saw was the morons in the Capitol police attacking the crowd with flashbangs and tear gas. They were trying to rile us up and failing.

The weird part was at every DC rally and protest I’ve extended, Park Police always encircle it with their Huey helicopter. The copter was conspicuously absent January 6
