They built literal gallows and chanted "hang Mike Pence."[0] While wondering the building looking for people like Mike Pence with flex cuffs.

This was a violent protest and you are absolutely arguing in bad faith (by ignoring most of what we now know about the events that took place).

Likely as not an effigy symbol. Mike Pence was never going to be hanged on the Capitol steps. The guy has Secret Service on him 24x7

Stop being obtuse. You started with a false premise of it being about buildings in general.

What’s Redox’s take on what transpired at the Capitol?
