    Default Racism of rioters takes center stage in Jan. 6 hearing

    It had only been hinted at in previous public examinations of the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection: Scores of rioters attacked police officers not just with makeshift weapons, stun guns and fists, but with racist slurs and accusations of treason.

    Four officers, two from the U.S. Capitol Police and two from the D.C.’s Metropolitan Police Department, on Tuesday detailed the racism and bigotry they encountered during the violent assault on the Capitol. Their direct, harrowing accounts laid out the hours when the pro-police sentiment of Trump's supporters was pushed aside, consumed by the fury of wanting to keep him in the White House.

    “One woman in a pink ‘MAGA’ (Make American Great Again) shirt yelled, ‘You hear that, guys, this n——— voted for Joe Biden!’” said Dunn, who has served more than a dozen years on the Capitol Police force.

    “Then the crowd, perhaps around 20 people, joined in, screaming “Boo! F——— n—— !” he testified. He said no one had ever called him the N-word while he was in uniform. That night, he sat in the Capitol Rotunda and wept.

    Yes. One officer observed that he was in uniform defending the Capitol and he was called a nigger.

    He served our country that day. I am proud of him, proud to know he was on the job.

    We all owe him a massive debt of gratitude which can never be repaid.

    Those who attacked him were attacking America, attacking our nation, attacking each and every one of us.

    Trump sent them.

    Trump needs to answer for this very serious crime.

    Trump exploited racism to attack America for his own benefit.

    Just a reminder to all the Maga folk and their brethren: If you are saying that the process that elected Biden was flawed, then that goes for the EXACT SAME PROCESS that put all your Congress/Senate right wing parrots in their current job. You can't have it both ways. Either it's legit, or EVERYONE get the fuck out of Washington, DC!

    It's inevitable.

    If they can't handle the truth, revert to whataboutism.

    So by your "logic" and hyperbole versions of recent history....rioters attacking the Capitol of the nation in order to stop the official recognition of a Presidential win (agreed by both political parties) and subsequently attacking police officers, breaking and entering, destroying public property, theft, threatening elected officials (all serious felonies) is okay because a group of black folk rioted in a city? Just to make sure the reading audience understands what you are saying.
