This is a photo of the DC National Guard at the Lincoln memorial. This is not the front of the US capitol.

They couldn’t prevent Gucci stores from being vandalized but they have preserved one of the iconic buildings of the US. At least they have their priorities straight.

And how many cities experienced rioting, looting, and vandalism prior to that picture due to BLM? How many cities have experience rioting, looting, and vandalism prior to today due to Trump supporters?
