Michael Byrd is a MURDERER.

He must be dealt with as such.

Byrd is a racist cop of the type liberals always whine about, but as I predicted, they completely support this racist cop because he killed one of their enemies.

After all, in their minds, Trump supporters aren’t even human.

Has the situation deteriorated to having our own equivalent of Ancient Rome’s “Praetorian Guards”? That is what this smells like!

While the Supreme Court, in cases such as Graham v. Connor, has said that courts must consider "the facts and circumstances of each particular case," it has emphasized that lethal force must be used only against someone who is "an immediate threat to the safety of the officers or others, and ... is actively resisting arrest or attempting to evade arrest by flight."

By that criteria there is no way that Babbitt should have been shot. But that criteria is employed very selectively when it comes to police shootings. The officer in question is given the benefit of the doubt all too frequently and the shooting ruled justified.

“Once we barricaded the doors, we were essentially trapped where we were,”

This is a bald faced lie. There are at least 5 other doors on the other side of the chambers they could have used for egress.

He’s openly racist and his murder of Ms. Babbit was a hate crime.

Michael Byrd may end up pining for the fjords.

Something ain’t right with him, mentally.

For this person, cowardice or bravery are irrelevant. He killed in cold blood, with insufficient provocation, simply because he saw a white face, under a MAGA cap.

No better than the most crazed BLM hoodlum out there. Perhaps for that reason alone was he “exonerated” by his superiors.

Judgment before God means nothing if you are not a believer in divine justice.

Wasn’t there a Byrd that was dragged behind a pickup truck in Texas?

He murdered an unarmed woman. Still waiting for the leftist outrage.

I still haven’t heard an answer as to why he didn’t simply arrest her as she got through the window.
And if that little thing fought him why he couldn’t overcome her with taser, baton, or even simply overpowering her. He just said he wasn’t alone.

That in no way met long established and adjudicated rules of deadly force. If the races were reversed, he would be waiting trial right now. If a city cop shot some unarmed person climbing through a broken-out window into the police station or the mayors office, HE would be sitting in prison awaiting trial.

The Capitol Building enjoys no special “deadly force authorized” status like a SAC flight line or something.

And I still haven’t heard why not a single congressfool didn’t walk out and simply listen to, or speak to the crowd.
Instead, they all instinctively fled and hid. They all knew about and hid the election steal.

When a cop car turns down the street, and someone instantly runs and hides everyone knows why.

Why did Byrd think the protesters were there to kill? Maybe it was just to yell at them, or even to shove them around, or comically to tar and feather them.

Look at that wide-eyed photo. Why do leftists always have that some facial expression? It’s a look of complete self-assured certainty and innocence.

They all look like a preacher telling you about God’s truth or something.

Like all murderers, Byrd is a garbage human being.
