For Many of Us, Jan. 6 Never Ended

For my efforts doing my duty as a Capitol Police sergeant, I was beaten and struck by raging rioters all over my body with multiple weapons until I was covered in my own blood.

It unfortunate that you had to use this particular thread title for a political statement.
Is nothing sacrosanct.

Don't get your nickers in a twist Barney - it is a term of common usage, although it may have a special meaning for you.

Perhaps using the heinous terrorist activities of Oct 7th would be more apt for thread title.
