January 6 Was the Worst Incident of Police Brutality Since Civil Rights Era

 Police Brutality During the Occupation of the U.S. Capitol

  • Members of the Capitol Police and D.C. Metropolitan Police Department were involved in egregious acts of excessive force during the Capitol protest.
  • A growing body of evidence suggests that neither stupidity nor incompetence can justify what now appears to be the worst incident of police brutality since the civil rights era.

Four Trump supporters lost their lives.

  • Capitol Police Lieutenant Michael Byrd shot and killed Ashli Babbitt, an unarmed female veteran, at 2:44 p.m. Prior to her execution, two men on the west side of the Capitol grounds-the location where Officer Thau and his colleagues had launched an assault on protesters-suffered fatal heart attacks at the same time.

  • Trump supporters are considered subhuman by the ruling class
  • They are not entitled to the same protections, either constitutional or personal security, as any other group of Americans
  • Police unleashed their fury on January 6 with impunity
  • Not only have they faced no consequences, both departments have received congressional and presidential medals of valor
