There was violence, but it was absurdly sparse. And why did the police simply move the barriers out of the way for the crowd to enter?

I'm not justifying the violence by a few (very few).

And watch what happens in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEkBMHjrj6I

I don't know who the guy was that was bashing the window, but it certainly appears the crowd was at least somewhat self policing. There seem to be some adults there.
I don't see any self-policing going on here.

It is sad that so many people are operating under what Trump's former press secretary called alternative facts. I tend to have some faith in the court system. Certainly, courts make errors. That is why we have an appellate process. I cannot, however, see the logic that would suggest that dozens of courts have engaged in a conspiracy to reject meritorious claims of a stolen election. The more logical conclusion is that there was a failure of proof. And a consistent failure of proof.

Different activity. I didn't say they self policed perfectly. Nobody does. They are, at the end of the day, human beings. Perfection is the enemy of excellence.

And they did self police. It's on video.
