To: technically right

Byrd’s got some real problems. Previous statements to fellow officers about “bagging” a whitey. He’s considered a loose-cannon.
He’ll be watched very closely until it’s his time to become a historical footnote.

He is just a liar. He did not need to do that. He saved no lives. If they wanted to protect him they should have released the name and put him in witness relocation. Someone may go after him now. Maybe they want someone to.

The substitution was intentional.

Bird is going to portray himself as the one man holding back the revolutionary tide.

He was incompetent and panicked, and now he’s trying to justify what he did, as much to himself as to anyone else. There was no overall plan and nobody knew what was going on. He went with his instincts, and his instincts were wrong. He would have been disciplined for that, but it’s political so they can’t admit his mistake.

Yeah, a white 5 foot 2 inch unarmed 125 pound woman could have killed thousands. What a two bit hater this Capitol Police Security guard is... I can see why this 6 foot 200 pound black thug was afraid of her. Of course he had to shoot her.

The good news is next time Antifa and/or BLM thug try to break into any government facility we can assassinate them - at point blank range... unarmed or not.

Too bad we didn't know the 'new rules' last summer.

I'm sure 'Nancy' understands OUR lives are just as important as hers.

This guy is no hero. He should be tried for his crime.

“Once we barricaded the doors, we were essentially trapped where we were. There was no way to retreat. No other way to get out.”

So Ashli was keeping you all trapped in there?

If you had asked her, she would have made sure you got out safely.

Ever wonder why he is just now being identified publicly? The 1/6 “witch hunt” is not going as planned so they need to infuse it with hyperbole of “feared for my life” and “protecting the congressional elites from the blood thirsty mob” into the hearings.

In that huge crowd violent as they were, you try to subdue one person coming through the security door protecting government leaders and a few steps away from the nuclear suitcase? Yeah right sure… A review of the video from different angles will show that this was the final act of self defence and defence of the capital that had to be taken…PS And I don’t know why we’re standing up for and Antifa masquerading as MAGA?
