Were about to find out if law enforcement, with weeks of advanced warnings of mass violence, are prepared.
I hope 12 hours before the event they sweep the streets clear of people, then set up a secured containment area for the inauguration route. I pretty sure this is what will happen.
Will some of the violent leftists slip through? No doubt, but this should be kept to a minimum if they did their jobs. So the bulk of these Communist should be kept outside that perimeter.
Btw, they have to do all this anyway to sweep for IED's etc before allowing the people into the secured area as everyone entering that inner perimeter will have been screened. ☺
For the second W ceremonies, although we left early, once we left the Metro, there were large masses of obstructors blocking the way.
We had tickets for the fenced off area but the access to the mall and especially the path ways to the entries where ticketed visitors were checked on entry. It was scary
Unless the whole of the mall and the area/walkways from the metro are within the ticketed security zone, the disruptors will prevail
I suspect that the security is not up to the task
However...... we made it to the FReeper Inaugural ball, Danced to the Gov Huckabee band the Capital offense, and met and remet tons of FReeper FRiends
