Would you have shot her?
I don't think anyone is saying she deserved to be shot. However, anyone who voluntarily puts themselves in this type of situation damn well better understand the potential consequences - intentional or unintentional. Your logic is like putting a gun to someone's head, pulling the trigger, and then acting surprised when their head gets blown off. Think about what you're saying. This group stormed the Capitol of the United States while Congress was in session. While armed, for pete's sake! And you don't think they should have been prepared for a violent reaction? Would you feel differently had it been a group of Muslims? Or Black men?

The blood of the woman is on Trump's hands. He incited this violence and rioting. It really was terrorism. Don't downplay it. When you all are climbing the walls and attacking police. The place had to be evacuated. Everyone that works there were afraid for their lives. Bombs were planted at the dnc and rnc. Don't act like this wasn't terrorism.

She was trespassing on federal property with a full blown riot going on. If BLM people break into buildings I have no problem with them being gunned down for doing so. Just like if a burglar breaks into your home. Gun them down. If you don't want to risk your life, don't do stupid unnecessary things. I have no problem with peaceful protesting. Riots and violent mobs should be met with force and stopped by whatever means necessary. This woman and these people entering the capital thought they were overthrowing the government. I think the police overall were way too easy on them.

Suddenly Trump voters are anti police and taking the side of rioters. Tells me there is little real difference between the left and right.

1) She was either trespassing or breaking and entering, both are misdemeanors.
2) Antifa and BLM were breaking into police stations for months, none of them were killed.
3) If an unarmed woman was breaking into a police station they would just laugh at her.
4) For the cop to shoot her, he would need to believe she posed a serious threat. I watched the videos countless times. I don't see it.

Not sure why that is. It's in the papers.

You are describing a scenario where she owuld throw a rock at the window and then ran, and she was shot while fleeing, she was forcing herself into a room where people with guns were trying to keep people out, I grant you she could have been pushed, comparing what happen yesterday to the Kavanaugh sit ins is just detrimental to your position.

Wow. so by your logic, the police should have just shot everyone, unarmed or not. How do you feel about BLM terrorists beating innocent bystanders? Same thing?

The police were wrong here.

A serious threat has now been defined as someone disobeying a command and moving towards the officers or in some cases away from the officers, i can guarantee you that there isnt precedent of a cop being convicted because of that, and how qualified immunity works this is a non starter.

Why wasn’t Obama and Biden accused of inciting riot when the White House was attacked by the mobs a few months ago and dozens of secret service were injured
Where was your moral outrage?
