"This rattled me more than January 6th (attack) did," Dingell said. "I was scared. Someone is going to get hurt at one of these things. They get out of control."

Except this one couldn’t effect the power dynamics in Washington… well unless they killed the representatives…

When Trump's White House allegedly ordered use of pepper spray to disperse protesters to clear the path for Trump to walk to a photo op, the Dems were up in arms. Evidently when the shoe is on the other foot, such action is perfectly justifiable to the Dems.
It probably helps that the people doing the crowing were in the building. It’s easier to defend protests in the abstract than stick to it when the protesters are right outside…
