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”.

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.

When BLM protestors were marching on the confederate monuments here in Richmond, they were getting beaten with batons & tear gassed.
These dudes are literally being allowed to CLIMB the Capitol building lol— Mark Morton ?? (@MarkDuaneMorton) January 6, 2021

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

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
