Swarms of Donald Trump supporters made their way to Washington D.C. today to protest the results of the election. At one point, the U.S. Capitol building, where Congress presides, was stormed by Trump supporters.
The entire world has their eyes on the news, including rock and metal musicians. Here are some takes from the rock and metal world.
These are TERRORISTS. This is armed insurrection. The flames were fanned today & over time by the president & specific senators who CANNOT be allowed now to distance from or denounce what they have directly caused. Know their names. THIS is the result of their deception. Shame. pic.twitter.com/nDJhvV3b1c— Paul Stanley (@PaulStanleyLive) January 6, 2021 In NYC during the summer, we saw footage of police bashing bicycles over peaceful protesters heads, ramming through a bunch with their cars, shoving @zayer_dounya for simply walking in their pathway. And this is being allowed to go on inside the Capital right now: https://t.co/eFOQjwa1MX— Alex Skolnick (@AlexSkolnick) January 6, 2021 Fuck these traitors!!— Robb Flynn (@TheGeneralMH) January 6, 2021 Several years of telling people that the media is “the enemy of the people”. hey Fuckhead @realDonaldTrump tell you covidiots to go home…its a wrap, ya'll lost, GTFOH!! and while you're at it YOU get the fuck outta here too before people get seriously hurt!— T?mmy L33 (@MrTommyLand) January 6, 2021 Just imagine for a second if BLM tried this BS..

That your political rivals are the demons who rape kids.
And that you shouldn’t trust the election system. That it was stolen. That it’s all rigged.
What did you think would happen?— Doc Coyle (@DocCoyle) January 6, 2021
You are one of the stupidest pieces of shit that ever walked the Earth. These people are here to support you you fucking idiot https://t.co/o8MrpIcfhn— Sebastian Bach (@sebastianbach) January 6, 2021 When BLM protestors were marching on the confederate monuments here in Richmond, they were getting beaten with batons & tear gassed. I love how they’re “storming” the Capital but they’re staying inside the velvet ropes.— Mark Morton ?? (@MarkDuaneMorton) January 6, 2021 Hey Siri….what’s the definition of “treason”?— Mark Morton ?? (@MarkDuaneMorton) January 6, 2021 What is happening right now is absolutely disgusting and repulsive… spare me that right of the people bullshit we all know that if it was a Black or Hispanic storming the capital breaking windows and destroying property it would be a bloody mess. Because these are Trump supporters and not of color police are doing nothing. https://t.co/qVbzMhNIFw— Dino Cazares (@DinoCazares) January 6, 2021 Pretty much sums it all up. https://t.co/BiF1YUqVp7— Doc Coyle (@DocCoyle) January 6, 2021 America, what the fuck are we doing?— I Declare War (@ideclarewarband) January 6, 2021 That DC surge into the Capitol building by a bunch of white nationalist incels would’ve been a bloodbath if it was BLM or Antifa.— Danko Jones (@dankojones) January 6, 2021 So, who's got our backs then?— Billy Gould (@MRGOULD) January 6, 2021 What America needs is a country like America to come in and protect the right to free democratic elections.— Joe HxC (@Thejoehardcore) January 6, 2021 Been looking forward to the people storming the Capitol, but I thought it would be to stop the lies and corruption, not support it.— Sacred Reich (@SacredReich) January 6, 2021 Bang bang trump bitches pic.twitter.com/q4ZzNcZ9eV— ?
