The Montgomery County police department (where I grew up) sent assistance on their own because it was evident that the executive branch would not assist. It took some quick thinking staff to get the electoral college ballots out of reach of the mob. Do you know what would happen if the mob got those ballots? I am curious what you think the outcome would be? To think it is not possible that the outcome could have ended differently is turning a blind eye. The feds sent in extra help for the BLM riots with or without the request of local governments. The Capitol Police where in deep crisis. I am content with agreeing to disagree, but I tell you Neil, I would support the UK against insurrection as opposed to try to play it down with the logical fallacies of "Whataboutisms" like BLM. One can easily be against violence in each case.
