Police officer Harry Dunn thought he might die on 6 January as an angry mob of Trump supporters attacked the US Capitol.
A year on, he's still traumatised by his experiences on the frontline - and he's worried that many Americans refuse to believe the extent of the violence and racism he faced that day.

Can you imagine how the police officers in Seattle, Portland, Baltimore all felt, then the civic leaders of their cities turned on them? Months of riots, civilians beaten, roads closed and while fighting that they then had to fight the city government!

Capt Gregory Prickett - It was civil unrest in most cities BUT it is not a riot any longer when they are violently trying to take over city blocks and establish their own government (inside our borders), take over federal institutions hindering them from conducting federal/state business.
The "COUP", as you refer to it, was a 7 hour mob rule riot at the capitol where they went in forcefully without weapons and in 7 hours later it was over. If it was a planned coup it would have been orchestrated, organized and planned with someone onsite calling the shots and taking over as leadership when the Capitol was secured by the organizers. It was people going around where they wanted to taking photo ops. This was not planned or organized it was a riot that became mob rule to disrupt govt activities but not to take over the government. Wrong? ABSOLUTELY...Insurrection YES definitely. There is no way to spin it...it was wrong and unlawful but IMHO not a coup.
A coup d'état, often shortened to coup in English, is a seizure and removal of a government and its powers. Typically, it is an illegal, unconstitutional seizure of power by a political faction, military, or a dictator.

Capt Gregory Prickett - I don’t blame Black people, there were a lot of white people involved in the BLM BS along with Antifa thugs. I condemn communist organizations period. The founders of BLM are communist, they admit it. Communist killed one hundred million people over 100 years. We watch the oppression and devastation created in Cuba and Venezuela you must want that here, you are supporting it. BLM is founded on a lie. Micheal Brown wasn’t some in no shot by police while saying hands up don’t shoot. Does the truth matter to you? It apparently doesn’t matter because Micheal Brown was a thug who had just robbed a store and then attacked a police officer. The police officer shot Brown in the hand during the struggle. Brown then ran away only to try to get another bite of the apple, instead he died in his efforts to assault the cop. The cop was exonerated in court. These are the people you support. Have a good day. .

Capt Gregory Prickett - thanks for the down vote, I must of hit a nerve. Did you down vote me because you love commies? Did you down vote because BLM is founded on lies. Oh never mind. So exactly what was the plan to over throw the government? What roads did the mob control? How were they communicating to coordinate activity? What was the plan? Who were the leaders and coordinator of ground activities? What national news feed was going to inform the public of the effective over throw? How many tanks were available when the counter punch started. If you think this was an attempt to over throw the government there is something sadly lacking intellectually. It was a mob action with perhaps some FBI coaching period.

This attack is seditious and those involved in planning, financing and carrying out Donald's command are traitors to the Constitution. The other side continues to deflect, detract and denigrate all fact tellers. Many in the republican caucus are guilty of crimes of commission and omission.

Exclusive: FBI finds scant evidence U.S. Capitol attack was coordinated - sources
The FBI has found scant evidence that the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol was the result of an organized plot to overturn the presidential election result, according to four current and former law enforcement officials.

LTC David Brown they just arrested 11 scumbags for seditions conspiracy. And the FBI has never said what you claim they have said. What idiot are you parroting?

Capt Gregory Prickett - President Trump authorized thousands of National Guard to be called up if Pelosi,or the DC mayor and Capital Police wanted to use them for extra security if they wanted extra security,
Why did they not accept the offer ?
Pelosi is responsible for the safety and security of the Capital.
January 6th would have never happened if Pelosi would have accepted the President’s offer for National Guard troops. Same goes for the DC Mayor. Those are the facts!
I really don’t care if you or anyone else votes me down.
You have your beliefs and your facts and I have mine.
As the old cliche goes: “We will just agree to disagree “
Thanks for your comments or debate on the January 6th riot.
Time for me to move on.
You take care’

I don’t want you to withdraw anything.
Call my post BS and misinformation if you like. I can say the same about you but I won’t. I’m not that way. I may disagree with with your point of view, but I respect it.
You stand up for your beliefs as you should, and I will stand up for mine.
Time for me to move on to something else.

Only the brainwashed lemmings are turning a blind eye. They are divorced from reality.
