This has been talked about on social media for weeks. People have been planning on doing this shit for a while now. Maybe, I don't know, the government could have prepared better? It's not "oh my god this protest came out of nowhere, what's going on".

When there was a small protest for BLM in my city, there were almost more cops than protestors, and all the buildings had been boarded up. You'd think DC would have a bit more resources than my city.

This was allowed to happen. If they didn't want the Capitol to be broken into, it wouldn't have been.
