The thing that has been bugging me about the entire piss poor response of all law enforcement in this situation is that everybody points to the show of force during BLM and that's what should have been done. Like that is now our default law enforcement position for protests.
That was STILL too much show of force for the BLM protests. In this situation there was actual talk of taking the capitol beforehand all over socials. That was not a primary theme of the BLM protests. If anything the response to both by law enforcement should have been complete opposite.
I don't like that the calls of "why didn't cap police respond like BLM" is making that response okay.
