  1. Hit 'em with the max of 20 years.

  2. I believe I recall :
    Don't take the law into your own hands.
    Also, use legal recourse.

  3. Just one of many losers on that day.

  4. Putin, Trump and supporters are terrorists who hate America..

  5. WOW.. One good policeman .. Finally I respect one policeman.

  6. This was a mainly peaceful demonstration. Only 0.01% of demonstrators entered the Capitol. There were even no fires or robberies, which Antifa and BLM do often in their demonstrations.

  7. Think about how many times he claimed self-defense in his 20 years as a uniformed officer

  8. He'll probably get like 3 weeks in prison

  9. Up to ten years in prison, an ex-cop doesn't do well in prison, but it'll probably be a cushy federal prison with golf and tennis?

  10. Hope he loses all nypd benefits and pension.

  11. Whu didn't he get charged for treason?

  12. Looks like an alcoholic
    Talks like an alcoholic
    Acts like an alcoholic
    Commits crime like a criminal
    What is he?

  13. Crazy thing is how quiet the right is at the moment 🙂 . This event was the one time the police should've reacted with deadly Force against all these thugs and set an example to any other opposing force who trys a stunt like that!!!

  14. Hopefully this piece of trash spends years on prison. What a disgraceful excuse for a human being. He, a retired police officer, f..king knew better than to enter the Capitol. He has showed the world, HE DIES NOT BELIEVE IN LAW AND ORDER.

  15. BRAVO…KEEP PROSECUTING AND LOCKING UP THESE TERRORISTS

  16. A former Marine, a former police officer, He is an embarrassment and a disgrace to the Corps and the law enforcement.
