As crazy as this sounds there was a permitted event on Capitol Grounds bottomofthehill Feb 2021 #12

This permit fact is very big, with big implications. ancianita Feb 2021 #14

The issue of internet phone service is very interesting, and your prior Hortensis Feb 2021 #18

I'm not even sure ancianita Feb 2021 #20

It certainly makes sense from a security standpoint. Hortensis Feb 2021 #25

Yes. ancianita Feb 2021 #28

I read they turned off cell coverage when the bombs were discovered (1/6) LeftInTX Feb 2021 #27

Very cool point. I guess most civilians don't think like that. One would think, though, ancianita Feb 2021 #29

I'm surprised there wasn't some immediate comms to US Capitol police and local bomb squads, ancianita Feb 2021 #36

I hear you. I get it. One reason I said "I guess." ancianita Feb 2021 #40

The penalties should include life sentences for bomb makers, planters and any other weaponry used. ancianita Feb 2021 #46

No real quarrel with that, although it's reportedly not much of a deterrent Hortensis Feb 2021 #51

I read the bombs were planted to be discovered just before the insurrection. Irish_Dem Feb 2021 #56

Got a link? Unless any bomb planters admitted this, it's conjecture. Just sayin'. ancianita Feb 2021 #58

It was widely reported that the police believed this was the situation. Irish_Dem Feb 2021 #59

I'd thought the rally was permitted, but not the march or occupying the Capitol grounds. maxsolomon Feb 2021 #32

What? That's a big number. Where do you get it from, again? ancianita Feb 2021 #13

"in and around" means they trespassed because the Capital grounds were barricaded with barriers and uponit7771 Feb 2021 #15

I get that part, thanks. It's your number I don't get. "In and around" can mean DC residents, ancianita Feb 2021 #19

130 devices. TwilightZone Feb 2021 #55

150 were arrested, and it's estimated that up to 800 were in the building. ancianita Feb 2021 #57
