The "patriot" vigorously participated in the criminal destruction of federal property, 'the people's' property ---i.e., the purpose-built barricade specifically locked to bar her mob of insurrectionists from getting to and harming our elected Representatives.
As such, she took her own welfare into her own hands. And it ended badly for her.
She decided to illegally enter the Capitol of the United States of America.
She decided to join a violent sub-group of the J6 mob who also criminally entered the Capitol
She decided to assemble at that barricaded door and shout epithets at the police and cheerlead her co-mobsters then violently striving to breach that barricade. And when breached.....the rioter decided to leap towards the protesting offices through that exact breached opening.
Babbitt is dead because of Babbitt. Duh!

That same perp can be shown to shout epithets at the police and voluntarily charge at those police through a violently and criminally breached opening in a barrier locked to prevent her and others from getting to and harming our elected Representatives.
Ashli is dead because of Ashli. Duh!

Indeed it is, and the people, through their duly authorized law enforcement entities took measure to protect their 'house'.
The police adopted a 'stand-your-ground' ethic to hinder the violent mob from getting to and harming --or even hanging --- our elected Representatives. Thankfully one officer took the warranted and necessary measures to prevent all of that angry mob from breaking through the barrier and attacking our elected Representatives and their staffs
