First I am hearing that an officer lost his life.  Prayers out to the family.

More active duty police died during the Capitol Building riot than in the entirety of the BLM/George Floyd related protests.

3 of the other 4 deaths during Wednesday's travesty seem to have been from non-violence related medical issues. Unfortunate, but not something anybody outside of themselves had any control over, to the best of our knowledge.

There are still some folks with injuries whose results are unknown, like the fellow who fell 30 ft. from the scaffolding he decided to climb. Sounds like the other injured police officers will recover.

This time.

Trump released a video indicating that he knows he won't be president in the next term, while still not conceding.

And Loeffler conceded her race.

Perdue hasn't gotten there, yet, but with more than 40,000 votes between him and Ossoff, I expect that is coming, too.

The woman who was shot dead in the Capitol building yesterday was an air force veteran, unarmed, and shot while climbing thru a window.
Shot in the neck by a cop.
She was a White woman.
IMAGINE if she was Black.

IMAGINE if she had not broken a window and started to climb through it in an effort to get to where the senators and representatives were being kept safe.

"Now, Congress has certified the results. A new administration will be inaugurated on January 20th," Trump said. "My focus now turns to ensuring a smooth, orderly, and seamless transition of power."

And YOU are lecturing anybody on divisive language?!

Your racist bullshit is beyond absurd. Your support for this attitude, as well.

I repeat: MORE ACTIVE DUTY POLICE DIED FROM YESTERDAY'S EVENT THAN FROM MONTHS OF BLM PROTESTS.

Kid, are you ready to jump into that great rightwing massgrave trump is digging for your party?

It’s a good thing you don’t have any offspring because they would be hunted and brought down just like you will be simply for the association.

Proud Boys in Oregon deciding that they don't support America and the police are evil incarnate.

That said, I think we have a police problem.
