Oh yes, and let's not forget shortwave radio. That's widely listened to. They could use that to get their messages out to the population! Twitter and Youtube are the defacto platforms available to the public and they have been increasingly censoring conservative content (aka "wrongthink").
Troll much?
Original video original source:
From the officer's standpoint the group inside that hallway had barricaded a door with a large mob advancing. They created a line in the sand against an advancing mob. That mob smashed the windows and the woman was the first person to attempt to climb over and thru the barricade. The guard actions did slow down the advancing mob. In the video you can see how the shot caused the crowd to actually retreat and bought more time for what I presume was security evacuating the people within that hallway/offices.
If you look at this video you can see how just before the woman climbed over the barricaded door, the "swat" team was actually retreating. (My guess would be due to the overwhelming number of people present they realized they would be quickly overrun.) Looks like they changed course and made a decision to tend to the woman after the shot was fired and crowd retreated a little bit.
Crowd immediately retreats at the sound. The officers are there, and are able to get the crowd back for a little bit to give themselves some room to work. I doubt it was thought out or even planned, there seemed to be confusion between the front and back of the line of officers and capitol security (suits). It just seems to be how they reacted in the moment
How’d Kamala do it?... without being elected!
And how would the media react?
So making possible assumptions that they are:
This thread needed a little of this and that
I think there are multiple double standards about the situation honestly. I see where some are coming from, we should be angry when any group breaks into a government building. Also, at least they went after the people responsible, not random gas station and restaurant owners livelihoods, and when the “other” group invaded a police station and courthouse nobody died in the process. Media portrayed it as peaceful, when buildings were burning and protestors were throwing molotavs and some shooting trump supporters (2 dead from unprovoked actions). We just want our voices heard and our laws followed, eventually when neither are happening what outlet is left? The system is obviously not working for us anymore.
At this point it may be the most tame comment of the threadHappy to oblige, but I'm not sure the rest of those lyrics are helpful!
They stormed the Capitol, not the White House.
I wish there was an “oh snap!” reaction.They stormed the Capitol, not the White House.
I’ll take 3 peace deals, booming economy, low taxes, and a President that doesn’t take a salary over someone who sells our country to China any day.They stormed the Capitol, not the White House.
