Police who were outnumbered attempted to deescalate the situation and lure rioters away from potential targets and sensitive locations. https://www.factcheck.org/2021/05/video-doesnt-prove-capitol-police-allowed-jan-6-protesters-to-enter-capitol/ https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/capitol-police-waving-video/
