The January 6th attack upon our Capital is no joke and should not be taken lightly.

The attack is not a political issue; it is an American one.

The attack left 140 policemen injured and 4 died as a result.

A strong stance must be made when the line of rule of law and symbols of our democracy are crossed.

It would have been more redeeming if those responsible for the attacks actually felt sorry and apologize for the harm caused; instead of another full on assault of gaslighting the public in undemocratic and unamerican values.

In order for democracy to work, no reward should be given for shameful, corrupt, criminal or seditious behaviors, especially when those activities result in immeasurable harm and death.
