Thank goodness for the Capitol Police keeping the public and the government safe. Can you imagine anyone not supporting these brave, dutiful police officers?

“Our officers just arrested a man who was stopped during our screening process at the Capitol Visitor Center (CVC),” the Capitol Police wrote in a statement online.

“The man smelled like fuel, had a torch & a flare gun. The CVC is closed for tours for the day, while we investigate,” the Capitol Police continued.

The first thing that came to mind for me was the guy who set himself on fire outside of the courthouse in NYC.

When Capital Police killed James Hodgkinson and saved the Republican baseball team they never even got a thank you from the mainstream media at the time.

Why doesn't the left support all brave dutiful Police Officers besides the heroes who saved the Nation from the wrath of a maniac with a flare gun?
