i told you I agreed there were security failures. There should have been non-lethal force. BREAKING NEWS: The Capitol Police Chief resigned.

I am only approaching this from the point of view of the shooter, a federal cop charged with protecting Congress, and not know the motivations or intentions of a mob, because quite frankly, those intentions cannot be fully known— only that they broke through all other security lines.

Zulus? Really?

All there has to be is a federal building with a cop charged with protecting people with his life and a threat to those people. This isn’t an emotional argument. The final defensive position takes all the guesswork and emotion out of it: the cops had no where else to fall back to.

FAFO. She found out.

Why were no protestors shot when the Wisconsin Capitol building was occupied for SEVERAL DAYS. Was the final defensive position located in Michigan?

You are very lucky that in your duties that you never did what this cop did, in these circumstances. If you had killed someone under these same circumstances, I would have referred you to an Article 32 investigation and then a General Court-Martial for murder.
