The FBI will have that link available shortly, you can count on that. :thumbsup:
Also, I wouldn't call the taking over of the Capitol building and property damage without incident. Would you, Mr. Law and Order Trumpist?
What property damage? I'm still waiting on that. I've not made any real conclusions over this DC thing. I knew it was going to be a shit show days ago when it was first announced. But based on what there's video evidence of, the worst I saw happen was that tear gas was shot inside a building. If you're not aware, tear gas pushes all oxygen out of an enclosed and crowded space. Meaning people can't breath AT ALL. AKA, they asphyxiate and die. Seems there were a few prepared people that helped those who couldn't escape, but that kind of shit is unacceptable.
Occupying a public building is not only an accepted form of protest, the precedent spans back to the founding of our nation. It MUST be peaceful, but beyond that, unless it's something like an armory or base, there's virtually no recourse. It is literally owned by the public, and the public do have that right. Vandalism, property damage, theft/looting, and assault are required to make it a felony.
And again, I'm completely open to FBI crime data on this. Absolutely. I was responding specifically to the video above, and in that video, no crime was evidenced. The closest was a guy who was about to vandalize by trying to kick in a door, and was stopped before he could do so.
