• Not a single person was arrested during the inauguration ceremony.

Whoa. From the article:

More than 22,000 law enforcement personnel were on hand to help with the crowds and provide security. Another 18,000 were camped out throughout the District.

LaChance credited the lack of incidents to the well-behaved spectators and the collaboration and months-long planning by federal and local security agencies and experts.

The past two inaugurations saw dozens of arrests. In 2001, Democrats angry over the ballot recount threw tomatoes and oranges during the parade. On the night of President Bush’s second inauguration, nearly 70 people were arrested in Adams Morgan by police in riot gear. A federal judged last year ruled that the arrests were unlawful.
