‘You’ve got guns. Use them!’ Lindsey Graham called for Capitol Police to use guns on Jan. 6, Senator tells WaPo
November 1, 2021 | Terresa Monroe-Hamilton

The Washington Post claimed in an investigative series that an unnamed Republican senator is asserting that Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) yelled at the sergeant-at-arms on Jan. 6 during the Capitol riot to shoot protesters.


“What are you doing? Take back the Senate! You’ve got guns. Use them!” Graham allegedly yelled during the chaos. “We give you guns for a reason. Use them.”

Yea sure, let's start shooting unarmed protesters. However, if anyone including this idiot said to start shooting BLM rioters and looters, the media would have his head on a pole in just a few hours.

So to clarify the current thinking in Washington D.C., police shooting unarmed Trump supporters is condoned and encouraged. However shooting armed looters and rioters burning down city blocks will get you fired and thrown in jail forever.
It's no wonder nobody wants to be a cop these days. The people they report to, such as Graham, are ridiculous clowns.
