Ashli Babbitt, protester killed at Capitol, was Air Force vet from California


She was shot and killed by police. I wonder when the Burning, Looting & Murdering is going to begin? Oh, I get it...it won’t! She was a White Trump supporter.

The silence is deafening from the Dems.

George Floyd was killed by an officer's knee while already subdued on the street.
Breonna Taylor was killed by a police raid while in her own bed.
Ashli Babbitt was killed by security as she was sieging a federal building with elected officials inside.

But the Trumpers who think the officer didn't have to kill her because she was unarmed are correct. Police training isn't geared to handle those situations unless they have tasers, rubber bullets, tear gas, etc. They are only allowed to use their guns to kill, never wound. It's a problem.

Also let's be absolutely honest here. A group of black people would not feel privileged enough to break through a window with armed guards on the other side. All the vandalism and looting took place when law enforcement wasn't around, and ended when the cops showed up because they know what happens after.

And to this I say...Bullcrap! Keep on living out there in left field! Apparently you have never seen the videos or because you approve of what occurred last year you dismissed the anarchy. I cannot believe someone in their right mind could write and believe such nonsense! I give up!🤷🏼‍♀️

There's no way in hell a group of black people are going to make it past armed security to the point of sitting in the House Speaker's chair and casually put their feet up and snap a pic of it. Lmao, not even close.

Believe what you want. The past 60 years belies your statements.

Imagine you're part of an armed security team whose job it is to protect elected officials. A bunch of black people are breaking through windows trying to get in. You have a gun. You supported what the McCloskeys did when people were outside their property barely on the lawn. What would you do as they broke through windows?

I would hope I had been trained enough not to use deadly force. Tasers should be standard issued equipment. The woman didn’t deserve to die...just as Gorge Floyd didn’t deserve to die in the way he did. But, if she was brandishing a knife or a firearm she had to face the consequences of her actions.

For one second are you able to imagine what would have happened if she had been Black? And, please keep any justifications at bay. There would be rioting, looting and murder/mayhem. You’re fooling yourself if you don’t believe it.

With that said...what she did was wrong. What the cop did was wrong, but circumstances and in the heat of the moment bad incidents happen. Will the cop be raked over the coals? I doubt it due to her being White. The only time the media and Dems concern themselves is when a Black person is shot. A black man was on private property inside an unfinished house when two white bigots gun him down. Those two should be punished to the fullest extent of the law! He was unarmed and on private property.


BTW, the Dems want to confiscate our firearms, but guess who were cowering under their desks while ARMED security protected them! The hypocrisy of the Dems makes me nauseous!

The first step to not being killed during the commission of a terrorist action is to not participate in a terrorist action. She got exactly what she earned.

reply

Exactly! Plus she was no saint. She had TWO restraining orders against her!!! Her child just may turn out good w/o her!!

So you tools also applaud any deaths and injuries among the BLM terrorists this summer, right?
