I didn't think enough of them would have the guts to break into the Capitol, and the madness and murder that followed, OMG. I have no idea what the extremist R's in the house would have done, might have just intimidated their fellows and basked in the adulations of the Visigoths. I wouldn't be surprised though if as many of them are packing as are NOT wearing masks! I don't put anything past anyone who plays any part in that "culture" at this point. And if someone has a gun on them, they are obviously more likely to use a gun than someone who doesn't.
