Peaceful? Hmmm! Again, tell that to the family of the female (unarmed) Patriot that was murdered that day! Peaceful...tell that to the hundreds of Patriots that were arrested that day! Are unwarranted, illegal arrests peaceful? It's called evil tyranny in full display my friend. Please wake up and stop making unwarranted excuses for the debacle of a lifetime! Putting our heads in the sand and trying to rationalize the shit show that was Jan 6th and continues to happen isn't going to do anything to help our situation! And with regard to your "unscathed" comment, all I have to say is research what went down in Richmond, VA. not so long ago. In that demonstration everyone was, as you said..."unscathed!" What was the difference between what went down in Richmond and what wend down in DC?
