Perhaps that’s what you’re talking about, but if you’ll scroll up and read what I wrote, you’ll see it’s not what I was talking about in the quote mindysan was responding to, which was Mayor Bowser’s pre-insurrection request that outside federal law enforcement be limited to the specific units she identified:
Much as I respect our D.C. mayor, she also may have exacerbated the problem in an understandable overreaction to the overbearing tactics used against BLM protestors in June and July–she made a very limited request for additional federal security and was explicit in stating that she did not want additional federal officers policing our streets. In hindsight, that appears to have been the wrong call, but it is also not an unreasonable response to the tear-gassing of peaceful protestors for a presidential photo op, especially given that the trashcan president promised he’d be marching along with his trashcan redhats.
