Capitol Security held the doors open for citizens exercising their 1st Amendment rights to assemble and petition for redress.

I see, is that why the "peaceful petitioners" decided to smash the windows out of the doors? I'm struggling to see why the "vandalism" was necessary if the capital police politely held the doors open for those "peaceful petitioners",

let alone why those polite police felt the need to draw their weapons and fire them.

Sorry andrew, but the narrative that it was a peaceful protest is complete unmitigated bullshit (read: a fucking lie).

What's more disappointing is that you're intelligent enough to understand what really happened, unlike a certain other deluded kool-aide drinker in this forum.

It was an attempted insurrection. There was no "peaceful redress" intended. The rioters stormed the capital with the intent of preventing the peaceful transition of power through violence and intimidation. Those who were jailed for it didn't get nearly what the deserved. It was treason, nothing less.

No one's defending felony assault, but most of the 6 January prisoners did no such thing.

Actually, you're doing just that, trying to claim it was a peaceful protest to address a grievance. It was nothing of the kind, and your kowtowing to the magatard mob is very specifically condoning felonious assault.

 Perhaps I was not clear.
 No one's defending felony assault, but most of the 6
January prisoners did no such thing.
 Does that help?

No. Even if they were not assaulting security guards or smashing windows, anyone partipating in that crowd and entering where they were clearly forbidden to enter was taking part in a riot. And their objective was clear: To prevent the peaceful transfer of power that was intended by the constitution, and properly done every prior time without exception.
