The Capitol Police are not exactly covering themselves in glory, are they?

On top of all the previous BS,
The children, part of the esteemed Rushingbrook Children’s Choir, had traveled to Washington, D.C. last Friday, May 26th, for a scheduled Capitol tour and had received prior approval to sing a short set of patriotic songs inside the historic Statuary Hall.

However, as their angelic voices filled the grand hall while they sang The Star-Spangled Banner with pride, one of the guides intervened, as he was told by the Capitol police that the children stop singing immediately. The abrupt interruption stunned the young performers, the choir director, and the assembled audience.

"You can't sing here, that counts as a demonstration, someone might be offended", etc. ad Bullshit.

Story gets out.  Capitol Police make a statement that boils down to 'no demonstrations or musical performances allowed'.  Also claimed the Congressional staffers lied to them.

'Bullshit!' is called.
Rasbach highlighted videos of Sean Feucht singing in the U.S. Capitol on Feb. 1 and March 10.

Rea noted that a group of 80 pastors sang in the Capitol Rotunda on March 29.

The Capitol Police did not respond when asked for comment about these and other performances.

Jeez, what a mess.

Proof that the Capitol Police are nothing but seditious little liars. Not to be trusted. A disgrace to their oaths and to the honorable ones who came before them, though who knows how far back we'd have to look to find them.

Make these cops pay the full cost of giving these kids a second trip to DC + $25,000 each for wasting their time. The total is to be paid immediately from the force's pension fund, then reimbursed by garnishing each cops' wages.

And impose an injunction requiring all supervisory personnel to take and pass the next course in Constitutional Law at an area university. If they fail, they're fired and permanently barred from law enforcement or any other government employment. If they pass, the court will give them oral exams. If they fail that after the university passed them, the university law program comes under scrutiny, and also whether other programs violate Constitutional rights...
