Good grief, OP. Fix the deceptive title.
Should they get medals? No. Should you mislead us all with clickbait garbage thread titles? Also No. |

SEC. 3. DUPLICATE MEDALS.
The Secretary may strike and sell duplicates in bronze of the gold medals struck pursuant to section 2 under such regulations as the Secretary may prescribe, at a price sufficient to cover the cost thereof, including labor, materials, dies, use of machinery, and overhead expenses. Oh, I got to get one of these, for sure. ETA:  Attached File |

While I doubt will be The CMOH, just a note of history that 8 civilians have been awarded the CMOH. So....it COULD happen.

Can we award a "Medal of Dishonor" for all the LEOs who let the socialist groups riot and don't try to stop them? I guess we would have to award it to the police chiefs and mayors and governors, too.

Quoted: https://www.newsweek.com/senate-unanimously-passes-bill-awarding-capitol-police-medals-honor-january-6-1615802 The Capitol Police and the Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia will receive Medals of Honor for protecting Congress during the attempted insurrection on January 6, the Senate voted on Tuesday. Fantastic. They did a hard job that day. Outnumbered, over-run, under-equipped, without backup, without support, under difficult circumstances, facing violence and anger, and yet by the end of the day the Capitol was secured, with a minimum loss of life, and the business of the people continued. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Insurrection .Jesus, shows you how much faith they have in the Capitol police and the people, they think a couple dozen unarmed folks can take over the federal government. I have never been more embarrassed by my country. That's what I keep asking people - to be an insurrection, there has to be a chance of success. Do people really think a couple dozen unarmed people had a chance at overthrowing the government, or even taking over the Capitol? |

"Protestors" There were lots of legit protesters on jan 6, folks who did not engage in violence or threats, destruction of property, etc., who just wanted to be seen and heard and get their message across. Those are not the people in jail. |

They have to keep up the act so the "evil right wing insurrection" narrative stays alive. They will talk about January 6th 2021 for decades. The history books will paint it as the darkest day in modern US history.

Quote HistoryQuoted: To be clear, this is the Congressional Gold Medal per other articles, not THE MoH (which they wouldn't be eligible for anyway.) Not that it still not That's what I thought. The two are often confused. Congress can award their medal to just about anyone they want for any reason. Usually famous people, the golfer Jack Nikolaus has one as an example. Roughly equivalent to the Presidential Medal of Freedom, which the President can award to anyone he wants for any reason the wants. And they have. |

Military doctors were technically civilians at the time as were others that looked like soldiers. I believe the law was changed around 1900 and that is no longer possible. At the same time several hundred MoH were recalled. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I'm assuming the Capitol PD has their own version of "MoH"? EDIT: OP's headline purposfully misworded to engage in distribution of rage porn. "Medals struck pursuant to this Act are national medals for the purposes of chapter 51 of title 31, United States Code." "(b) Design And Striking.—For the purposes of the award referred to in subsection (a), the Secretary of the Treasury (hereafter in this Act referred to as the “Secretary”) shall strike gold medals with suitable emblems, devices, and inscriptions, to be determined by the Secretary (of the Treasury)."
