Anti-Israel Rioters Attack on DNC ‘Rattled’ Democrat Rep. Dingell ‘More than January 6th’
However, do you notice what is missing from all of these condemnations? Calls for an intense investigation and long prison sentences for the criminals.
Mike wrote about the horrible statement from the Capitol Police regarding the anti-Israel rioters attacking the DNC.
The police only made one arrest despite over 200 rioters injuring six officers and blocking exits as Congress members were inside the building.
The rioters trapped Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-MI) in the DNC. She could not exit because they blocked all the exits.
Dingell told The Detroit News the riot “rattled” her more than the January 6th Capitol Hill riot: “I was scared. Someone is going to get hurt at one of these things. They can get out of control.”
An anonymous Democrat lawmaker told Axios the riot “scared me more than January 6th.”
I do not think the lawmaker is Dingell. The lawmaker continued: “Someone sent out word for people to come [back] and police said it’s not safe. Police were wearing gas masks … this was not peaceful.”
Other lawmakers condemned the rioters:
“We have witnessed countless nonviolent gatherings in Washington and across the globe this week and over the past month since the Israel-Hamas war began. Peace is possible,” [Michigan Democrat Rep. Hillary] Scholten said in a statement. “I condemn violence in all forms and urge my fellow Americans to use their voices, but not violence, when working for the change we want to see in the world.”
Rep. Sean Casten, D-Illinois, also was among the lawmakers evacuated from the building.
“You have the Constitutional right to peaceably assemble and protest. But blocking all entries to a building with multiple members of Congress in it, protected by Capitol Police officers who have lived through January 6, is putting you and other innocent people at risk,” Casten posted on X.
Was just evacuated from the #DNC after pro-terrorist, anti-#Israel protestors grew violent, pepper spraying police officers and attempting to break into the building.
Thankful to the police officers who stopped them and for helping me and my colleagues get out safely. (1/2) https://t.co/tYVCK3o0YA

Do you know what is missing from all of these condemnations?
Calls for an intense investigation. Long prison sentences for the criminals.
Or will that not happen because the rioters are not Republicans, conservatives, or Trump supporters? Maybe because it did not happen at the Capitol?
Oh, we all know an investigation would have started the day after the DNC riot.
The DNC riot hurt more Capitol Police officers.

That’s because they were out for blood, and the hatred is palpable.
Whomever downvoted you is all in on the destruction of America by these idiots.
When the Democrats meet in Chicago this summer it could be quite a melee. Probably leave behind 40 or so million $$ in improvements.
It might make 1968 look like a love fest.
Reap what you sow Democrats.
For Democrats this sort of thing is what spurs their membership among young people who are naturally drawn to rebellion against authority. Among conservative types, this behavior is repugnant. Two different mind sets and explains why the youthful enthusiasm and energy mostly flows to the Dems.
Capital police not wearing full riot gear during a full blown riot. Who in the DC police hierarchy decides when police wear riot gear? I guess the optics are bad when confronting the pacifist “river to the sea” DC division of the Hamas SS.
The decision about riot gear is influenced by availability and accessibility of the gear, immediacy of the need to respond with large numbers of LEO and rightly or wrongly the ‘book’ generally views the decision to upgrade to riot gear as a ‘provocation’ to the crowd.
Like I said, the optics determine the response.
Darn shame regarding the “availability and accessibility” of riot gear. If only the police had the means to be forewarned about the possibility of protests turning violent.
The police know the Palestinian protest movement in NYC/DC is a amalgamation of BLM, Antifa, Democratic Socialists of America, International ANSWER, SJP and many more.
So, I want to know who made the call to dress down for the party.
It was the Capital Police responding so that would be their leadership’s decision. They responded b/c they had folks closer but it was DC Police jurisdiction. LEO don’t tote all that crap around with them all shift. Especially so for foot patrol or static locations like the Capital Police use; no squad car means no trunk to put all that crap in.

Ray Epps?
The true intent of J6 was to support a revalidation of votes in questioned states… a delay to affirm. The DNC attack was to instill fear. What did 0bama say…. “make them feel uncomfortable”?
As for J6 being an attempt to overthrow the government…. after billions and billion of rubles spent on a triad of weapons, all the Soviets needed to do was land several thousand troops in D.C. and win? The US defense predicated on surviving a surprise first strike with nukes when all that was needed was some Trump flags, a shaman and little old ladies?
I think Liz Cheney is here downvoting everybodys comments….
“As for J6 being an attempt to overthrow the government…”
I rate this one “worst insurrection ever.” 0 stars. Do not recommend.
I noticed the worry was over all the exits being blocked while congressmen were in the building Not that all of the exits were blocked.
You saw that too, did you.
It’s like some animals are more equal than others, or something.
Now that the Jan 6 video is coming out, it’s easy to see why she was less scared.
“An anonymous Democrat lawmaker told Axios the riot “scared me more than January 6th.”
And rightly so. Leftists are VICIOUSLY VIOLENT.
Hmmm… there must be something (D)ifferent about these circumstances. I wonder what that is?
Things that rattle:
heads filled with rocks
rattle snakes
loose nuts

Dingell doesn’t want to object too strongly. After all, many of them are her constituents and supporters.
just imagine, debbie, when they show up at YOUR house–not content with protesting but intent rather on taking you and your family out, no exceptions–and it won’t matter if the police / soc guys are standing there
coming to politicians everywhere
