1. That is so horrible.

After getting trashed last week by Fox Fuckers, it hardly surprises me.

[sdfernando]

2. All of these deaths are on TFG's hands!

RIP Officer Hashida and thank you for saving our country!

[Rustyeye77]

4. Terrible

[rickyhall]

5. Too, too bad.

God damn trump.

[Comfortably_Numb]

16. All the way to hell.

6. A United Congressional Show of Support in Funding the Capitol Police

..was too much too ask some members who's own lives were protected by the ultimate committment to oath of the Cap Police.

Cap Police were there to protect again, for the big sleepover on the Cap steps, cameras rolling, staged "eviction campaign".

Thanks Cap Police.
Sorry bout the one you lost today.
Still not worthy of funding but.. but..here's our deepest condolences.

🤬🖕🏼

7. Fuck the terrorists who made this happen

Fuck every maga piece of shit. The blood of every one of those officers is on their hands.

8. Another victim of the violent Republican mob that attacked America

The Republican traitors must be held accountable.

[KS Toronado]

12. We should start calling them ....Fascist republican Taliban

or something similar.

14. the GOT? (grand old taliban) nt

10. Do these suicides strike anyone else as odd?

They may be very much just tales of human tragedy, but why these particular policemen?

There have been countless cops involved in all kinds of civil unrest, mass shootings, and other tragedies, even in officer-related murders, but I can't recall stories about lots of them killing themselves.

Anyone have any insight?

[KS Toronado]

15. I've also thought it unusual after one horrific day at work,

work I assume they trained for. Is it possible these are the Capitol Police who were friendly to the insurrectionists?
And maybe feel guilty about not getting Mike Pence & Nancy Pelosi killed so Der Orange Führer had his reason
to overthrow our government? Was the threat of death hanging over their heads if they didn't succeed in
crowning him king Jan 7th? Lots of questions, few real answers.

21. Metropolitan. Not capitol police

These were the guys in riot gear fighting the terrorists from getting in the lower west terrace door.

These weren’t sympathizers.

[pazzyanne]

23. Just stop!!! nt

[Duppers]

32. OMG!

2nd pazzyanne here: Just Stop!

You know not...

[yardwork]

37. PTSD caused by the trauma of not being supported during combat.

Yes, they trained for this. Nobody can train for how they've been treated since that day.

[AngryOldDem]

39. This is uncalled for.

Apparently the officer who killed himself was Japanese-American. I’m sure he got the same verbal abuse that the African-American officer got — probably worse, because these moronic monsters probably assumed he was Chinese and were taking out their anger over COVID on him. (And just where would they have gotten that idea?)

None of us — repeat NONE — have any idea of what it was like to be a police officer on Capitol Hill that day. If you must engage in conspiracy, look at those who have since turned a blind eye to Jan, 6, and ask yourself just why that is.

Bottom line — the trauma of that day is taking its toll, and to imply or speculate on any other unseemly motives behind these deaths is uncalled for and, quite frankly, repellent.

Done with this thread.

[AngryOldDem]

20. Having a base that supposedly supports you...

…and then wants to kill you with the flag, metal bars, etc., can fuck with a person. That, plus the all-out barbarity of what they were fighting in hand-to-hand combat. That, plus actually defending the Capitol, the order of law, and democracy itself.

And really, we have no idea what cops in other situations have wound up doing, or how long they mentally struggled with what happened to them. Causes of death, especially suicides, tend to be kept private. The police here don’t even have that.

[TygrBright]

22. No, not at all. Suicide is notoriously high in law enforcement.

New Study Shows Police At Highest Risk For Suicide Of Any Profession

STUDY: Police more likely to die by suicide than in line of duty

Two among many.

It's not a conspiracy, mysterious cover-up deaths, etc. It's the sad nature of things as they are these days. Bad enough without looking for hidden evil... there's plenty right out there.

26. Police commit suicide for a variety of reasons.

It's entirely possible that this Officer's suicide had nothing to do with 1/6. Could be any number of things that happened before or after that.

[Historic NY]

35. Things tend to build up, its hard to explain but it also part of police culture

to bury one's self with booze and what not. He had 18yrs on the job. I just know it not hard to get there. Police are programmed to help people, unfortunately sometime the person need the help is them.

[machoneman]

24. Very, very odd indeed. Why would they now do so? Hadn't they ever faced violence before?

The head of the unit must bring in health professionals immediately and work will all the survivors STAT!

[WhiskeyGrinder]

25. Head injuries treated by the "police clinic" instead of regular doctors.

[ProfessorGAC]

30. That Could Be A Problem

My BiL had a serious head injury in the early 70s.
He's not been psychologically right since.
Not a danger to himself, but not able to properly care for himself.
Per my wife, (I met him years after this happened) he was a completely typical 21 year old in 1970. Never the same since.

[mountain grammy]

11. that's three.. unthinkable what they went through

that drove them to this. The terrorists really have to pay, but the judges are letting them go on vacation.

[LW1977]

13. K&R

The award for the nastiest most vile villain goes to Laura Ingraham! What a nasty bitc.. witch!

[AngryOldDem]

17. Horrible.

People need to answer for this — every single one who aided and abetted these animals on Jan. 6.
We have NO idea how many more are suffering.

[WarGamer]

27. Sad... LEO have a much higher suicide rate than the general public.

Even without the added stress of 1/6

200-300 cops commit suicide a year, more than who are KIA each year.

[ecstatic]

28. That's awful. I hope they investigated very thoroughly

to make sure it was indeed a suicide and no foul play was involved.

[lindysalsagal]

29. Lock up TFG. It was instigated right here, not in Begeffinggazi!

[Ron Obvious]

31. Sad

But are we certain it's even related or likely to be so? There might be hundreds of reasons in his private life and it would be unseemly to use his death for political ends.

[Treefrog]

33. Al cops are not B.

This makes me sad.

Many cops are good people, just like everyone else in this world.

[Duppers]

34. A good Twitter reply...

Yes, this ⬆⬆⬆

36. Damn heartless, INSANE assholes!

[yardwork]

38. Juanita Broaddrick. Evil liar.

[Zeitghost]

40. Thank you for your service Officer Hashida.

It's tragic news when anyone decides to end their life. My heart goes out to his friends and family.

I would caution anyone trying to attribute a reason for his decision, especially if it to try to score online political points. We have no idea why Officer Hashida made the decision he did and claiming otherwise is disrespectful to the deceased and his family.
