We gave you guys guns, and you should have used them': Lindsey Graham called for cops to KILL January 6 rioters as they stormed the US Capitol, book reveals
Daily Mail ^

Republican Senator Lindsey Graham once told an ex-Capitol police officer who was badly injured in the January 6 insurrection that he should have used his gun to shoot Trump supporters who were rioting in the head, a new memoir reveals.

Michael Fanone, who used to work for the Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia from 2001 until 2021, said the South Carolina politician offered his two cents on the situation when they first met in May 2021 - four months after the attack.

'You guys should have shot them all in the head,' recalled Fanone in his memoir 'Hold the Line: The Insurrection and One Cop's Battle for America's Soul,' which is set for publication on October 11. 'We gave you guys guns, and you should have used them. I don’t understand why that didn’t happen.'

Not a big fan of Daily Mail, but someone on this forum asked about neocons. Lindsey's picture is probably next to the word in the dictionary.

As usual Lindsey Graham doesn’t know what the hell he’s talking about.

Lindsey is always cheering for other people to take up arms and kill others.

Strange isn’t it?

Graham is a very sick man and typical of most members of congress.

Great minds think alike. I asked the Mods to delete my thread.

I disagree. How long have I been here on FR that I don’t know what this bastard is capable of?

I thought they were in the Capitol Building itself, not in the head.

“shoot Trump supporters who were rioting in the head,”

Sounds like they were rioting in the bathroom. What terrible writing!

Reminder - FAKE NEWS.

As much as Graham is a douche, there is no reason to take this report seriously.

Maybe it would have more veracity if John Brennan confirmed it.

Maybe. But this isn’t the only source I’ve heard/read this from.

Our founding fathers gave us the right to bear arms to kill tyrants. We should be using them.

Thats ok, we can let yours ride. I did notice some defenders/deflectors popping their heads up on both threads already.

He probably missed the video of the cops letting them in the back door.
