Irony. The murdered officer was apparently a Trump supporter who took his oath seriously.

Brian Sicknick was a Trump-supporting U.S. Capitol Police officer and military veteran who has died of injuries suffered during a pro-Trump riot on January 6, 2021, at the Capitol building, authorities say. Sicknick was injured while “physically engaging” with rioters, the U.S. Capitol Police Department said in a statement. He died at 9:30 p.m. on January 7, the department said.

Heavy found a Twitter account in Sicknick’s name. It indicates that he was a Donald Trump supporter; the cover photo is Trump’s plane. The account has been temporarily restricted for “unusual activity.” On Facebook, his cover photo is of an American flag. The mayor of South River, New Jersey, where the officer was from, told My Central New Jersey, “The family has requested privacy at this time and said Brian did his job.”

6. all the Capital Police who HELPED the breach to happen should face murder charges

the shamefull exhibit will forever tarnish Capital Police. Their chief needs to be "fired:, not allowed to resign with benefits. The collusion and conspiracy runs deep and a full purge with repurcussions must happen or we will face a much worse situation the next time. There will be a next time NO DOUBT

7. "Antifa did it."

9. No it is not funny it's crazy but it's also what the traitors

are actually saying. I’ll put quotations for clarification.

11. You're correct.

The RW radio stations in my area started blaming "antifa" while the riot was in progress. And they still are.

12. Thousands of Anti-Fascists cleverly disguised as Fascists. .
