214. And I guess you've never been around the Capitol Hill police |

First and foremost their mission is protect the Capitol and the members of Congress. In this instance there was a confrontation with an individual not immediately identified as a member. Once that member identified herself as a member of Congress, the CHP had no reason not to allow her to go about his or her business; she posed no threat. However, that doesn't mean that they might not decide to pursue charges after the fact based on her behavior.
