-The rioters tased officers and tried to shoot one with his own gun.
-One officer will likely lose his eye.

A friendly reminder to the certain House members who yelled at the Capitol Police tonight for asking them to go through a metal detector like everyone else in this building: a lot of these officers are experiencing *major* PTSD.
So, to be precise, the NIH says acute stress symptoms must be present for at least a month to be formally diagnosed as PTSD. nimh.nih.gov/health/topics/…
But my point remains: many of these officers endured extremely traumatic experiences to protect these lawmakers.
