This is from 2017. Nothing to do with the January 6th insurrection.

Protesters were arrested after police trapped them in a "kettle" after some people smashed windows, destroyed a limousine and threw objects at officers during a demonstration against the incoming president.

Kettling just makes everything worse.

And cops arrested and charged people based on what they were wearing...

The government adopted the extraordinary tactic of charging hundreds of people arrested on a public street with felony crimes based on the theory that their choice of black clothing meant they were part of a felony rioting conspiracy.
