Unfortunately, there is no other rational conclusion to be drawn.


Edit: That was a bit unclear. What I meant is, the only rational conclusion to be drawn is that they are being treated differently for entirely racist reasons.

I hope Trump and his family show up on the front lines of this riot. Let them inhale some tear gas and possibly rubber bullets in their balls.

I once waited two hours in line to get a tour of the US Capitol. Three layers of security and more security after getting a tour of the Senate Floor. These photos are insanity. Also shocked we haven’t heard of heavy use of force.

They better hope to hell none of these idiots has decided the appropriate thing to do would be to blow the whole thing up. It would be so easy to detonate a bomb in that building at the moment.

Still though....within the context of 'armed revolution' thats pretty polite.

Those security guards seem rather unconcerned about the whole thing.

It's a big group of white people in Trump's America. Nothing will happen to these people until the last minute.

This is white privilege in 2021 America.

I can't be the only one who is seeing live images and video and think at least some of these people are going to die from this super spreader event. The infection rates must be through the roof in DC today.

Worst part is the vast majority of these people don’t actually live in DC (or even the DMV) and will spread it all across the country again.
