What? He said he watched them storm in and instead he provides something he saw after the fact. Look, I am currently combing all of the video from the event for faces in a bid to help identify people who were in the capitol. That guy was NOT on any live stream. This the original claim of “saw it from being glued to the TVs and monitors” is a false one and I challenged op to find an example in the stream that he watched. Instead he provided a photo op from Twitter. You yourself even cut off the part where i set the goal posts. Regardless when I release my project this week you will see that no one was “clearly armed” as they walked through those doors. This was a travesty, but it is IMHO just one big false narrative like DC burning in May (the original goal post I replied to)

Not through the doors, but here's a window and a baseball bat, after breaking the window with a shield. https://youtu.be/SocnM1lHZB4?t=156 https://youtu.be/SocnM1lHZB4?t=156 The link you posted before is a selection of the protests away from the building. I skipped through it and could not find any view of storming the building at all. Is this what you were looking for? Or are you specifically looking for people who had their weapons in the open and visible to cameras and staff before even getting in? Because I don't think they would be that stupid. And no, I don't believe the majority had any serious weapons with them. There is a decent number of people with padded gloves though - not something you normally take with you.

  Mobs have torn people apart with their bare hands. Once a mob gets going there is no way to know what will happen, it is like an avalanche. This one fizzled out for lack of targets, which is a very good thing because I don't want to imagine where it could have ended otherwise.
