I am asking Washingtonians and those who live in the region to stay out of the downtown area on Tuesday and Wednesday and not to engage with demonstrators who come to our city seeking confrontation, and we will do what we must to ensure all who attend remain peaceful.

Been seeing a lot of this across the Twitterverse. People who are NOT in DC, and HAVEN’T been on the ground to help/assist/protect BIPOC lives and our allies telling us what to do on Jan 6.

That takes gall, hubris, unchecked privilege, myopia, and a warped view of importance.

LOL!!

Maybe the cops will give out tickets or something. There will probably be more guns than police.

Counter protesters are, IMO, not needed on this day. Please stay away if you are one of the three I mentioned.

Uhh... you know people work and live downtown, right? What’s your plan to keep them safe? Cuz “don’t go downtown” ain’t cutting it.

Full disclosure: I work at home. I'm not going to be within miles of the festivities.
