Honestly, I think the entire idea for the inauguration should be reviewed and re-conceived. It's too dangerous in my opinion.

Personally, I would do it INSIDE the White House.

Dear @SecretService


Sending this to you so you cannot say you weren't aware again. Please take every precaution to prevent violence.

There are bad people intent on causing harm.

In the wake of the attempted fascistic coup on Jan 6th, Far Right groups are now planning a "Million Militia March for Jan 20th, inauguration day.

Right-wing telegrams ran a poll yesterday. "Do you want total war?" When I took these screencaps last night, 80% answered yes.

[First Speaker]

1. My God. "Do you want total war?" is a direct quote from Goebbels...

...when he addressed the German people after Stalingrad. They aren't bothering to pretend anymore...

[Arne]

2. Will the White House require armored vehicles and tanks?

Asking for 10 or 20 retired Generals.

[Thekaspervote]

3. Precautions for sure

The last crowd was estimated at just under 10k. They will never achieve a million marchers. They’d be lucky to have 20k

They’re being very foolish if they try this. DC is/will be an armed fortress with 6,500 Ntl guard troops alone. They cannot go up against the US military, SS, state police from several states and do anything but fail SPECTACULARLY

[PirateRo]

4. I'm sorry, but no

The inauguration must take place as scheduled. There must be no interruption.

The million-bullshit march is dispersed or the terrorists arrested, or, preferably, shot.

[Demsrule86]

8. They have guns now with scopes with built in chips that account for wind speed and other

conditions that can kill folks from about a mile away. I don't know how we protect Joe and Kamal as well as former presidents and their wives.

[PirateRo]

9. And we don't? That is no argument.

The inauguration must happen as scheduled.

Your argument is based on fear. Fear is not an option.

[Demsrule86]

10. You miss the point. Our folks safety should be our primary concern...it is very difficult to

protect them in this situation.

[PirateRo]

12. I understand the point precisely

I reject it.

[dware]

14. And the Secret Service has taken all this into account. nt

[JHB]

15. Even those require skill and training to hit something at that distance...

...and the inauguration can use transparent bulletproof barriers (like you'd find in a bank) for additional protection.

[Bradshaw3]

5. I thought groups had to get permits for marches and rallies

So any group can bring as many people as they want and hold rallies when and wherever they want?

[NoMoreRepugs]

6. Doubtful the FEDS will EVER be outgunned or overwhelmed

by these Groups EVER again. They do not like to be embarrassed.

[Chainfire]

7. Are we going to let the Fascist Thugs shape our adgenda? If we hide, they win.

No, we need a traditional ceremony as far as Covid will permit. If we have the will, we can protect the President.

[bdamomma]

11. Can't this

be denied??? It should be.

These are domestic terrorists arrest them all.

[bluestarone]

13. IF there is blood in the streets

I'm thinking it will be THEIRS!!!
