Gallery of Shame — Shocking images from the Capitol insurrection

View Gallery

They are the kind of images that will reverberate through history.

Like the iconic shot of a college student kneeling over the body of her fallen classmate at Kent State University in Ohio in 1970.

Like the horrifying photo of the naked young Vietnamese girl running from soldiers during the napalm attack during the My Lai massacre.

The right-wing terrorist invasion of the United States Capitol Building to try to implement an illegal and seditious coup through violent insurrection has generated pictures that will likely join those famous photos in burning permanent images into our brains that will be difficult to shake.

Here is a gallery of indelible images of the insurrection in action in Washington DC today. Which now will you think will emerge as the most remembered photo of this ignominious moment in our history?

The house floor is evacuated on Jan. 6 as pro-Trump protesters breached the Capitol building.
