Seems odd for a crowd organizer to go on Fox and tout how the rallys are essentially fake . Free advertisement maybe?

What's not odd, and the reason I'm not bashing Trump on this one , is a resident , trying to do their best working a job or jobs, getting off a bus after dark (or before) having to walk a block to their row house, might be relieved to see a police presence instead of the daily Russian roulette of just walking a few hundred feet. That individual and those like him/her would likely be thankful and are the exact people deserving protection.
Why would it be odd? What side hires the most "actors"? Maybe they went on Fox in hopes of drumming up business and educating the Right that their protests don't have to be organic - that they can be artificial....

Imagine a J6er being arrested and then claiming: "Hey! I am being paid to be here! I don't care about the cause! I'm simply doing my job!" (FBI Agents Not Included)

No questioning that it is what it is just weird .Educating the right would constitute free advertisement. Wacky world we live in.

DC is suing Trump Administration......shocker.

To me, that says we don't support law enforcement or the citizens.....hope they keep their foot to the floor on this type stuff.

Trying to remember...it's been a long time ago, but wasn't there a court case in which the result basically supported the idea that the police have no obligation to try to protect the citizenry or their property? They are there to enforce the law, but protection of life and property isn't in the mandate, despite all of the "To Serve and Protect" slogans on their cars...

Correct, supreme Court ruled police have no duty to protect.

Which is fair.
