January 11th – The serious riots in the U.S. Congress on the 6th shocked the world, and many celebrities and politicians have come forward to accuse the violent conflict.
On the 10th local time, Schwarzenegger, a former Republican governor of California and a famous Hollywood movie star, made a voice on social platforms, comparing the riot to Nazi atrocities.
According to the Associated Press and Newsweek, in the released video, Schwarzenegger, who grew up in Austria, compared the congressional riots to “a broken glass night in the United States”.
Broken Glass Night, also known as Crystal Night, refers to the Nazis’sravage of Jewish families, schools and businesses in Germany and Austria in 1938.
“These perpetrators not only broke the glass of the Capitol, but also the ideas we have always had. Schwarzenegger said, “Our founding principle has been trampled on by them…
Those who want to overthrow the constitution should understand that you will never win.” In the video, Schwarzenegger also raised the sword in his starring film Conan the Barbarian.
He said that although people are afraid of recent events, they also understand what may be lost, and those who plan to participate in the congressional riots will be punished.
At present, the violent conflict has resulted in five deaths, including one policeman and one demonstrators shot dead by the police.
On the other hand, law enforcement began to arrest those who invaded the Capitol.
According to the Associated Press, more than 100 demonstrators may face lawsuits related to the congressional riots.
