Capital pt 3

Damn a good question: why aren't these actions considered an "insurrection" or at least a breach of the Capitol building?

More than 50 people were arrested Tuesday after the Senate cafeteria was shut down by anti-Israel protesters chanting "Senate can't eat until Gaza eats!"
The U.S. Capitol Police confirmed to Fox News that those arrested inside the Dirksen Senate Office Building in Washington, D.C., were charged with Crowding, Obstructing, or Incommoding. "It is illegal to demonstrate inside any of the Congressional Buildings," Capitol Police said in a statement.

LOL. It's illegal for people on the right. Lefties are always welcome to take over whatever building they fancy.

One woman was wearing a shirt that read "Biden's legacy = Genocide."
...
A source told Fox News that Capitol Police at one point shouted "Everybody out or be placed under arrest" -- to which a protester replied "this is the house of the people!"

Sometimes it is the house of the people -- like when rabid pro-abortion activists trap Senators in elevators or block them from entering.

Other times, the government orders up a Woke Nazi dragnet to round up people who profaned the "people's house" with their unsightly presence.

Some of the demonstrators appeared to be same individuals that interrupted testimony from Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin during a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing this morning. In March, more than a dozen pro-Palestine demonstrators were arrested at the Russell Senate Office Building.

No jail time though, right?

Sounds like "obstructing the functions" of government to me. But I have a feeling that the DOJ will see it as just more Righteous Protesting.

What are the odds the government will spend years hunting these people down for trespassing?

Justice Gorsuch Lays Waste to the Biden Administration's Argument for J6 Prison Sentences

townhall.com townhall.com

During oral arguments, Justice Neil Gorsuch poked holes in the Biden Justice Department’s case, listing four instances of “obstructing a Congressional proceeding,” mentioning Rep. Jamaal Bowman’s (D-NY) fire alarm stunt last year:

The best part is when the Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar said they would need evidence of intent in these circumstances.

“Oh, they intend to do it alright,” replied Gorsuch.

Another example of the incredible double standard in American law enforcement.

* Hundreds of protesters block the Golden Gate bridge.

* Only a couple of dozen are actually arrested.

* Those arrested are released without charges for "lack of evidence".

Incredible!

Where do you get hundreds of protesters? You lied again. 78 were arrested. You lied another time. 26 have already been charged.

You lie for a living.

Keep deflecting. Let's see when all is said and done what happens to the people that blocked the bridge.

Deflection? You blatantly lied about the numbers arrested and charged and I corrected your lie. You have no shame.
