On at least live stream, I am listening to protesters show each other knives and tasers as they stand outside the Capitol building. Others can be heard saying, "Put the knife away."

Ohio's state health director stepped down last year after armed protesters showed up at her house. The replacement hire decided against taking the job, citing fears of harassment. Now shots fired into the home of another health figure with Ohio Dept of Health
