"The woman fatally shot inside the U.S. Capitol Wednesday has been identified as Ashli Babbitt, a friend confirms to Fox News. Babbitt was a 14-year veteran who served four tours with the Air Force and resided in San Diego, according to media reports.
Babbitt was a strong supporter of President Trump."
Authorities were in riot gear protecting the Capitol as the media and lawmakers returned to resume a joint session of Congress halted hours earlier when a mob breached security and stormed the building, resulting in the fatal shooting."
So Ashli Babbitt, an UNARMED white, female military veteran Trump supporter was shot and killed by Capitol police for breaking and entering, illegally being in the Capitol building.
I did not know an UNARMED person trespassing, breaking, and entering justified LETHAL FORCE.
Security for yesterday was completely mismanaged - it was a complete failure, a criminal failure.
EVERYONE knew in advance there was going to be a MASSIVE Pro-Trump crowd in close proximity to the Capitol that opposed certifying election. Anyone with any common sense knew there could be violence...but the lack of preparation IMO proves no one expected this kind of violence form a Pro-Trump crowd. The level of distrust in our government after the last 4 years combined with warranted distrust in our elections and frustration at their concerns were being ignored was under-estimated.
Anyone who remembers Charlottesville or any of the protests since, where Antifa, BLM, and other groups have shown up and initiated /engaged in violence against Pro-Trump groups had to have common sense enough to know Anti-Trump groups would allow Pro-Trump groups to protest at the Capitol without being harassed or causing trouble. It has been reported the same indications of violence to come at other violent Antifa events were seen before the violent yesterday - piles of bricks and frozen water bottles were spotted near the Capitol before the violence started yesterday. The FBI reported that at least1 bus filled with Antifa members showed up at the Capitol yesterday. To NOT expect Antifa to show up, to NOT have advance warning they were planning to do so, and / or NOT to have prepared for any of this was a MASSIVE FAILURE.
Where was the National Guard? It takes HOURS for the NG to be called in, mobilize, and show up. Why weren't they already called up - to have had members already come in and be ready to deploy at a moment's notice...for this one day, one specific event? FAIL!
How could the Capitol Police be so unprepared, to allow crowds to get SO close to the Capitol building, and be caught completely off-guard when crowds began to split up and begin laying siege to the Capitol Building?
Finally, again, HOW does a Capitol Police officer shoot an unarmed female in the chest, killing her, for trespassing, breaking, and entering?
If she was black, Antifa and BLM would be marching in DC today, looting, burning, destroying, and calling for the elimination of the police.
CNN would be calling it a 'mostly peaceful protest' over the police murdering an unarmed female.
Liberal talking heads would be demanding to know why the police couldn't have just SHOT HER IN THE LEG.
...and the govt buildings would be under siege again.
Everyone on this board knows this is true.
Political Partisanship changes the whole narrative.
- It's a Trump supporter - she had it coming...who cares if she was unarmed
So today as politicians, the fake news media, and the snowflakes all continue the feeding frenzy of attacking Trump for yesterday and on his supporters, everyone is ignoring - politics aside - the compete failure of the Capitol Police, of those in charge of providing security yesterday, and the horrific fact that police shot an unarmed woman in the chest, killing her, for breaking, entering, trespassing, etc...crimes that do NOT call for or justify LETHAL FORCE!
