Why didn't they shoot any of them?

They used to shoot them.

They used to shoot them.

Capitol police have gone soft, mostly due to PTSD.

They forgot the guns in the bathroom.

Josh Hawley must have grown a small pair. There's no footage of him running away.

From the linked article
"The January 6th committee showed the part of the video of only Hawley running. In fact, Hawley was with a series of lawmakers who were being directed by the Capitol Hill police to leave the building. Hawley was one of the last to leave."

So, he was still running away. LOL (BTW, seems like he did the right thing under the circumstances that were ongoing at the time)

Yes. He was running away, and the Jan 6th commission chose to show only him, making it look like he was a coward, to great laughter.

I think it was because afterwards, he was claiming that there was nothing wrong with the protestors, he was not scared, etc etc.

(I dont think he was coward. Any reasonable person in his position (or the other senators/reps position would have done the same thing)

He may very well have said those things, considering his political bent. But for the Jan 6 commission to portray this as a funny act of cowardice, and only HIS cowardice is almost as bad as adding a movie soundtrack to the other video. Totally dishonest and undermines what little credibility they had.

You're the one laughing...
