Um, the police waved them through. It was in cooperation with Capitol police. No 'overwhelming' necessary. Which is worrisome in a whole nother way. https://twitter.com/bumbera_steven/status/134727096998817382... <edit> video

8 second videos don't tell much of a story. That is them falling back because they didn't have enough people to hold the perimeter.

Here is a longer video of them at one of the entrances of the building: https://youtu.be/cJOgGsC0G9U?t=140

My mistake. It was a chaotic, violent situation. I shouldn't make snap judgements from cherry-picked shots. Sorry.

Look at the videos, no waving through going on, quite the opposite. One woman was shot by police and died.
