Those guys deserve better.
A Washington D.C. police officer who was swarmed and beaten by pro-Trump rioters at the U.S. Capitol last week reflected on his harrowing experience.
"If it wasn't my job I would have done that for free. It was absolutely my pleasure to crush a white nationalist insurrection," Daniel Hodges told NBC News on Thursday. "I'm glad I was in a position to be able to help. We'll do it as many times as it takes."

Anyone else think this is out of line for an officer sworn to uphold the constitution, server and protect and all that jazz to say this publicly?
He's certainly entitled to his political opinion, but what proof of "white nationalism" does he have as a front line peace officer?
Can you only imagine if any one of the many LEO protecting assets and personnel from the BLM or Antifa said the same?
I was surprised the comment wasn't posted on reddit/politics by one of the kooks there.
Well, free speech and all.
Well, that guy is an ignorant SOB.Quote:

I seriously thought this was satire until I saw the link. He thinks he "crushed an insurrection"? Ha! Only thing that got crushed was him.
Don't cherry pick half of what was in the very very short article.

Daniel Hodges told NBC News on Thursday. Hodges was captured in a video being crushed in a doorway by a violent mob. He said they then stole his equipment and beat him. "They ripped my mask off. Stole my equipment. Beat me up. Sprayed me with everything," he said.
Let's try to walk a mile in these gentlemen's shoes first. I cannot imagine what it was like for those officers that day.Quote:
D.C. Police Officer Michael Fanone told CNN Friday that a group of rioters beat him to the ground, stripped him of his gear, and threatened his life. "Some guys started getting a hold of my gun and they were screaming out, 'Kill him with his own gun,'" Fanone said.
