Print text only There s nothing scarier than a white mob. Especially in the United States.
These are the words of Democrat Congressman Ruben Gallego, who was evacuated from the US Capitol as a violent, angry mob closed in on January 6.
A former US Marine, Mr Gallego was ready to fight his way out of the chamber.
