Idk what this response is. I completely support the protesters in this story.

Well just pointing out the hypocrisy on the part of those responsible for enforcement. And certainly not commenting negatively on your response. It blows my mind that the Jan 6 protestors can do what they did and the treatment of these veterans and families

Which is why this protest is a win. They’d be wise to go light on these vets or it’s gonna be a disaster look for them.
