​@@007kingifritperhaps at 1 or more particular entrance(s)/exit(s), but surely you have clearly seen the audio/visual unadulterated/ undoctored evidence and proof that there were people who broke windows and beat/physically assaulted law enforcement officers attempting to secure entrances by verbal orders and physical force. Unfortunately, in the USA, you do not have the right to defend yourself from the physical force applied by law enforcement. Physical assault is a crime none of us want to be victims of anymore than excessive force police brutality. So in what political philosophies/systems do people get no penalties or accountability for? Is it ok if, let's just say for instance, 0.1% or even 0.01% can be allowed to behave that way without any accountability or even a commitment to change, let alone admit what happened and be remorseful!?

I think that the basis of democracy is "ballots not bullets". In other words, citizens of a nation have the collective fairness and generosity to believe that the elected representatives of the people should govern, not the leaders of the military who physically have the ability to govern. This is a very new, radical idea which historically has not been typical of human society. American society may be turning away from this concept.

[@ShankarSivarajan]

What do you think of the regulations of the unelected bureaucrats of the administrative state? Most people who preach the virtues of "elected representatives" tend to also be in favor of them.

The only bullet was fired by armed security who shot & killed Ashli Babbit while she posed no threat other than entering through a broken transom window. She could have easily been arrested.

That was in the city, buildings etc. Now think about how it was the nation's capital, the seat of government. Its a big deal.

The few cops that were left in the building that weren't barricaded with capital workers, let the hundreds of people who had just beaten their fellow officers and broken in, go past them. I wonder why? Had to be a left wing conspiracy. No way it was just because they were completely outnumbered and didn't want to get beaten, it can't be that simple.
