Harry Dunn, a U.S. Capitol Police officer who defended the building during the Jan. 6 riot, is joining a wide field seeking the seat being vacated by Democratic Rep. John Sarbanes in Maryland’s 3rd Congressional District.
Dunn, 40, who was awarded the Congressional Gold Medal and Presidential Citizens Medal and published a memoir last year called “Standing my Ground,” announced his candidacy for the Democratic primary on Friday, almost exactly three years after a day that he said took a toll on his emotional health.
“On January 6th, 2021, I did my duty as a police officer and as an American and defended our nation’s Capitol from violent insurrectionists,” Dunn said in a release on Friday. “Today, I’m running for Congress because the forces that spurred that violent attack are still at work and as a patriotic American, it is my duty to defend our democracy.”
Got any news articles about capitol police shooting people’s dogs, planting fake drugs, or arresting people for no reason?
Bout the only thing that’s happened at the capitol building recently was jan. 6. Don’t mix them up with the usual shitstain police you see in the news everyday.
I live in DC. There are like 8 police forces in the area. The only ones worse than Capitol Police are park police, and since the Obama administration that’s been in question, since Trump it might not even be true anymore. They are absolutely terrible.
This guy might be great, but as a general rule they’re low training, high fuck up, harassers of citizens. They shoot people that are clearly on drugs if they get near their area, they shot into a panicked woman’s car that had a baby in the seat, and that’s not even getting into the day to day reputation.
I’m struggling to find any news about them shooting people on drugs.
The car shooting, are you talking about Miriam Carey, 2013?
