Why did these "peaceful protestors" who came to D.C. arm themselves with weapons?
"The guns and ammunition were among an unusual collection of weapons the police seized from protesters who flooded into Washington to support President Donald Trump's effort to overturn the 2020 election.
...authorities still turned up a wide array of weapons among the tiny slice of protesters who were arrested before and after the Capitol invasion. The haul included an assault rifle, a crossbow and 11 Molotov cocktails — all found in the car of an Alabama man. Others had brass knuckles and pocket knives, stun guns and "stinger whips."

You guys can stop pretending this was going to be a "peaceful protest."
“As of 5 January 2021, FBI Norfolk received information indicating calls for violence in response to ‘unlawful lockdowns’ to begin on 6 January 2021 in Washington. D.C.,” the document says, according to the Post.
“An online thread discussed specific calls for violence to include stating ‘Be ready to fight. Congress needs to hear glass breaking, doors being kicked in, and blood from their BLM and Pantifa slave soldiers being spilled. Get violent. Stop calling this a march, or rally, or a protest. Go there ready for war. We get our President or we die. NOTHING else will achieve this goal.”
People in the discussion online also shared a map of the Capitol’s tunnels."

It was an insurrection.
The fucking Trumptard assholes tried to take charge of the government and force them to change the legitimate outcome of an election because the right is a bunch of insane goofballs.
That wacky bitch got herself killed and it was her own fault.
It's called personal responsibility.
Something right-wingers don't believe in.
So fuck every last one of you.
C'MON MAN!!!!

The date is part of the origin. Stating the date as a response is no different than simply stating the webpage or newspaper as a response. Either you committed a genetic fallacy or you are guilty of misusing the claim when using it against others.
In the case of the first officer mentioned, he was not named until after a civil lawsuit was filed against the city but I suspect you knew that.
