125:1 at inauguration

Reported on OAN TV that there were 125 military personnel for every non military human being at the inauguration.
So, if there had been half as many troops the ratio would be 62.5 to 1. Would that be too risky to handle the ferocious racist right wing Trump rioters?

It was to intimidate not protect.

So, 65:1 doesn't intimidate? Gotcha. Thanks.

Are all these politicians going to have 65-120 troops with them at all times when returning to their home state / district?

Wouldn't surprise me. But I am kind of glad that politicians are finally afraid of the people instead of the other way around.

They arent there for Trump supporters.

Can’t wait to see SJL attempt another town hall where she ignores a constituent to talk on her phone.

It was a mostly peaceful riot - the type Kamala supported verbally on air.

Not to intimidate. To set the narrative that conservatives are extremists. Perfect photo op. Nancy and Mitch accomplished what they wanted.

This is correct. From what I observed, I suspect most of these guys realized they were just being used as pawns. They certainly weren't looking to "intimidate" anyone.

So now it's acceptable to use excessive military population for a show of power?
