[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People love to be dramatic and social media only gives rise to this by people "marking themselves safe" when they were never in harms way anyway. 99% of the people in the DC area were in exactly zero danger on 1/6 so there is no need to reach out to siblings and say "you were safe" unless you lived in the area immediately surrounding the Capitol. Serious question, did you reach out to the same siblings and say you were safe during the BLM riots which were much more widespread over the summer? [/quote] It’s not just about directly being in harms way. We live near a major route used by emergency vehicles. We could hear sirens constantly. There was a sense of not knowing if it was really over or we would wake up to worse. My teens suggested we all camp out on the living floor to sleep. They wanted to be together. [/quote]
