Stupid question, but don't most members of Congress already have some kind of security detail round the clock?
Are they really suggesting that even with live in bodyguards and a detail of Capitol police that they still need some kind of personal army but ordinary people don't need a gun?
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.
Chuck, we miss ya man.

I don't know... other side of a coin, this is a losing proposition. They try SO hard to0 turn a minor disturbance into a 'riot' or 'insurrection'. Then they continue to scream "wolf" for months. Then they spend endless gobs of money to "fortiify" DC and, and now want to have their task force/QRF strut around for the cameras behind all the fencing and razor wire looking properly goosesteppish. The longer it goes on, the stupider they look.Originally Posted by Grand58742
Granted, that pretty much ensures they need "something" to happen to justify it... but they can't do it yet because it would be to obvious of a setup. Which means they'll continue to look properly stupid for at least a little while longer. Especially since everyone knows even the most retarded right-winger isn't going to storm DC into the teeth of a few thousand NG for...what, exactly would be the objective?
So now that they've painted themselves into this nice green corner, they have to find something else to both justify and expand on it all... they just haven't decided which "something" to do yet.
Did anyone really think the situation would be anything different?
That loco old goat wants to be POTUS so bad it's almost funny; her and Hillary should run next term. Would be interesting to see who would shank who first...
Again, per previous, has anything really changed?
I too enjoyed playing both sides of the checker board by myself on the odd occasion...

Can you say “self-licking ice cream cone”?
How the hell can you post a YouTube preview on here?? Anyway, 36 page report by Comrade Honore saying they need 800 more police and a full time QRF for the Capitol. Plus more security because of the Republican enemy within.

Weren’t these the same people who wanted to defund the police and walls/fences were horrible when OMB was in office? If it wasn’t for double standards, they wouldn’t have any standards.

Tens of thousands of National Guard troops who deployed to Washington, D.C., ahead of a 2021 inauguration under threat of violence are eligible for a brand-new award in recognition of their service, Military.com has learned.
The D.C. National Guard has created a new "Presidential Inauguration Support Ribbon" in recognition of a deeply unusual security mission earlier this year, an official confirmed to Military.com.
"In recognition of their service as part of the security mission at the U.S. Capitol and other facilities in Washington, D.C., before, during and after the 59th Presidential Inauguration, the District of Columbia National Guard plans to present all Soldiers and Airmen who took part in the mission one or both of the following decorations: the District of Columbia National Guard Presidential Inauguration Support Ribbon and/or the District of Columbia Emergency Service Ribbon," Air Force Lt. Col. Robert Carver, spokesman for the Virginia Air National Guard and director of Joint Task Force-DC Joint Information Center, said in a statement. "Both ribbons are District-level decorations. Plans for their presentation are not yet final. Other federal decorations are also being considered."

Why is there a French flag on a US ribbon? That pisses me off as an American.

They just want to defund/remove the police in YOUR city, not theirs. The peasantry don’t need guns or police, it is a threat to their power. However, our Rulers must be protected at any cost.....

Other than the Speaker and a few other "leaders," most of them don't have any security that I've ever read about or heard a Congressman mention. Newly elected Congresscritters are treated with about as much care and respect as wandering freshmen at a Big 10 school, as far as I can tell. And maybe 25% of them are brand new every 2 years.
I would assume that the Speaker has 90% of the security that the President gets, but I have no inside info.
Well check the first assumption, but yeah, the more-equal-than-other-animals are saying exactly that - slavery and groveling for you peasants, riches and power for themselves.
