No. It was a mostly peaceful protest. Which was a set up.

They were following my neighbor around like he was a Chinese balloon driving a white Bronco.

As I understand it, the Capitol and DC Metro police were not "into" arresting the QAnon Shaman (your neighbor) and the other wrong doers, because putting people under arrest was not feasible under the circumstances. Their priority was bringing the situation under control and restoring safety and security.

Were they going to start handcuffing people? Even if you imagine them using plastic Ziplock-thingies instead of old-fashioned handcuffs, and even if you imagine that they had enough of the ersatz plastic "cuffs" at their disposal, how much time could any one officer afford to focus on making an arrest under the circumstances?

These people that used violence to barge into the capitol were not doing it so that they could be arrested. This wasn't "civil disobedience". These felons and other miscreants were not there for the purpose of being arrested en masse as a symbolic protest.

"I use the education I've had and my life experiences to try to navigate my way to the truth, using reports from an imperfect news media to guide me. I have friends, on the other hand, who are happy to create their own truths without any help from the media. They furnish their minds with truths that they've made up all on their own—out of thin air, so to speak."

Then of course there's denial and willful denial, even denial because it suits one's purpose. Such are the Characteristics of the aforementioned sheep.

Oh and by the way hi everybody it's been awhile hope you are well.
