These Black Capitol Police Officers Describe Fighting Off "Racist-Ass Terrorists". 

[akiralazuli]

There is video of a Capitol police officer confronted by these terrorists, refusing to draw his sidearm as they break through a door and chase him up the stairs.

You want to talk about feeling threatened? If cops can be, "threatened" by a 92 year-old woman with pruning shears, or a child with a BB gun, or a college student fallen asleep on a bench, why are they not threatened by rioting insurgents running after them through their house of government?

I do not often advocate shooting people. But when illegal combatants attempt to overthrow the United States Capitol, and chase police down the halls, the cops need to break out the rubber bullets and rain hell!

Everyone is talking about the DC siege and stuff but honestly I’m still waiting for Pandemic too end So Lou Bega can release Mambo No.6 at this point that’s what’s keeping me going

If being on the same side as the guy wearing the Wookie bikini and his cop-killing duck dynasty nazi friends who tried to overthrow democracy hasn't convinced you that you're on the wrong side of history, you're in a cult and can't be reasoned with. I won't even try.

Hope any and all officers that assisted in what happened in the Capitol or took selfies with the terrorists are happy now. 

Officer Sicknick was responding to the riots on Wednesday, January 6, 2021, at the U.S. Capitol and was injured while physically engaging with protesters. He returned to his division office and collapsed. He was taken to a local hospital where he succumbed to his injuries. 

Imagine that. The “Blue Lives Matter” crowd murdering a cop. I guess....maybe it was just a way to pretend they weren’t racist? It was never about “Backing the Blue” or whatever, it was about hating Black People.

I am encouraged to see some of my conservative-leaning friends speaking out against the events of the last week, even if only meekly and obliquely. I don't want to paint them all with the same broad brush, that would be unfair, but given the gravity of the current situation, I have to struggle not to assume the worst unless shown otherwise.
