Rudy is awful!

and was struck by the capitol police officers great attempts to use minimal force, against the "protestors"

Y'know... There are striking similarities with the groups the "protesters" don't like:

Well. from your pictures, both groups favor large magazine capacity semi automatic rifles, mid size Toyota pick up trucks, camo colored clothing, and flag waving. 🙀

But there were also videos of the Capital Police taking selfies with the rioters - say what?? 👀

There was one individual, a West Virginia legislater, who was arrested in his vehicle with a dozen ( eleven actually ) gasoline and styrofoam cocktails, but they were not used as far as I know. That could have caused pretty severe damage to historic artifacts and paintings in the Capitol Building if used.

What would lead a legislater to bring the tools of an arsonist to the Capitol Building?

I think both parties really need to step back and contemplate trying to cooperatively govern - Like President Biden stated "I'll be a President for all Americans!"

We need to heal America in so many ways, including, but not limited to, Covid 19.

A little more gracious language, on both sides of the isle, and less accusations, might go far as well.

President Biden seems to favor this approach too.
