What bothers me the most here is fuckfaces like Johnson have never been on the receiving end of this kind of treatment. I can’t say he would change his tune, but i suspect he may not go to such lengths to defend these assholes brutalizing peaceful protestors. His only attempt at empathy is to feel bad for the troops that are ‘just trying to do their job’…

“How would you like to do that job, if you had to put on the badge and do it when you know you have the media criticizing your every move and you have wild protesters in your face cursing at you, waving their finger in your face and sometimes pushing and assaulting you?” the House speaker asked. “Thank the Lord that there are people who are willing to do that difficult job.”

If you take on a job that requires you to be a shitty person, you’re a shitty person. I would rather go homeless than terrorize and brutalize people for a living.
