Original Note:
This protest was ultimately not a peaceful one. The Capitol Police said in a statement that six officers were treated for injuries "ranging from minor cuts to being pepper sprayed to being punched." One protester was arrested for an assault on an officer, they said. https://www.axios.com/2023/11/16/dnc-lawmakers-evacuated-house-offices-lockdown-israel-hamas-war-protest https://abcnews.go.com/amp/Politics/capitol-police-working-back-150-people-protesting-dnc/story?id=104930336
