The Pentagon has approved National Guardsmen protecting the U.S. Capitol to carry lethal weapons in the days leading up to the inauguration, as law enforcement continues to receive information about credible threats of violence from armed militia groups, two Guard spokespeople confirmed.

Sounds like another Kent State?

If information regarding "credible threats" is true, it would seem prudent to have a visible show of force as part of a defensive plan...

If they are gonna only be armed with M9s and things really go South, I feel bad for them.

Maybe AOC will sponsor new legislation to bring the 1911 back.

If she did, that would be the first thing out of her mouth that I could agree with. Normally she cannot understand normal thinking.

What would be the point of having them there if they weren't armed?

How many times have we discussed not bringing common sense into these things?...

How would you suggest they defend in the event if a riot or God forbid armed assault?...
Would you check citizenship before using your weapon against another you viewed as a threat?...

Maybe they could just shake their fist at them?

I really do not condone this at all. What I am saying is it is really a shame that the Democrat socialist election stealing America hating puppets of the N.W.O. brought our country down to a level we will never forget.
Americans killing Americans is horrible and all it would have took was an honest election and this never would have happened.
What the Democrat's did was the COMMUNIST WAY and the news media is just as guilty.
I know they have to defend the buildings and it will be a fight but that don't mean I like what is going on.

I would not want to be the person to issue the order to FIRE on U.S. citizens. That would be a very difficult decision unless the MOB is armed. What a mess.

If they need hundreds of armed troops to protect them, Trader Joe didn't win Jack Crap. What about all those dems who refused the guard during the liberal led riots? Who protected citizens and business owners then? But when these liberal products of broken condoms get nervous, out come the troops.
Happy, Fish? You helped cause this

I mentioned Kent State in my post. The National Guard was deployed on the campus, but NO order was ever given to fire. Apparently one guard nervously pulled the trigger and set off a cascade of others firing. As I recall, 4 students were killed and 9 or 10 were wounded. Some of our veterans will attest to this type of thing happening when the adrenaline is surging.
As of today, 1/15/20, there are 25,000 troops in Washington. Most of them National Guard.

And now many more states, including Florida are calling out the Guard because of uncredited warnings. Hint to those who would demonstrate, "Do not throw sh*t at armed people." Jerry Pournelle (Gone but not forgotten.)

Who never thought he would see such insane levels of out and out hate in the US of A.
