“At the foot of the West Lawn of the Capitol, U.S. Capitol Police officers joined the Secret Service with guns drawn, cornering the car on a sidewalk. Carey backed into a squad car, drove briefly on the sidewalk and continued toward Constitution Avenue NW. Officers fired eight shots. Her car was shortly surrounded by officers on Constitution Avenue NE, a block from the Capitol. As Carey tried to back away, a Capitol Police officer and a Secret Service officer each fired nine bullets at the car. Carey was hit once in the arm, three times in the back and once in the head. She died a short while later. Her baby was not physically harmed.”

I’m guessing they weren’t 26 blank rounds.
Her sister would be better off contrasting her fate to the far more destructive rioters of last summer.
Montgomery should be playing first base because he can really reach.
Because the FBI didn’t plan and execute that incident.
The Washington Post is beyond contemptible. What about last summer’s siege of the White House? Or the nightly Antifa riots in Portland? Or arson, looting and murders from Black Lives Matter?
Or maybe they’re upset that crew served machine guns weren’t used to mow down people indiscriminately. After all, this is what their idol Nancy Pelosi wanted.
The October 3, 2013, incident began when Miriam Carey drove up to a White House checkpoint and was approached by Secret Service officers. She made a three-point turn, striking an officer who was trying to move a barricade into her path and then drove away.
1. Location - the normally public access space of the capitol vs the White House.
2. The means and location - an automobile transgressing a heavily guarded supposedly limited access area at the White House. An automobile breaking a secure government space is often assumed to possibly be carrying a bomb. None of the Capitol protesters entering the capitol building were armed.
3. 1. and 2. and not anyone’s “race” were the basic reasons for SOME of the difference in the response. The other difference, I believe, is that the deep state was in on the event, and instead of blocking it in its incubation they sought to see it come about as fuel for going after Trump.
She was black by the way. There were some who said she was trying to bring a prophecy to Obama and that was why she was in such a rush. Strange that she couldn’t predict her own death.
“She made a three-point turn...”
Legit question here.
What is a three-point turn?
A way to maneuver a vehicle into a U-turn within a confined space.
There was certainly more to the story than we will ever know. To ask means you’re a conspiracy nut. So even her family doesn’t ask. The media spent all of three news cycles attacking her mental health because she had recently gone off medicine. She was a hard-working young lady with a few bouts of depression here and there in her 34 years. Who among us, I dare ask?
She didn’t randomly drive to the White House. Her friends say she went to see Obama. She had a mission. At the blossoming of the SpyGate investigations, before anyone really knew anything, this woman told people she was going to see Obama to tell him to stop spying on her. She may have been nuttier than a fruitcake as the media insists, but she told people she heard his voice. She wanted to ask him to leave her alone. Isn’t that nuts? Media said aren’t we lucky she never got to Obama? Capitol Police did their job. Media said this should draw more attention to women’s health issues……but a funny thing happened on the way to that women’s health forum. It never happened.
Three or 4 news cycles and poof! Autopsy showed she was not intoxicated or on drugs. She was unarmed.
Tsk tsk poor girl. Baby in the back seat will grow up learning of this gruesome event in her life.
If history is always right, Miriam Carey met Obama when he arbitrarily stopped in at a dental clinic where she worked as a dental hygienist. He had been attending an event in Connecticut and somehow the shell of a nut lodged in between his teeth. It was uncomfortable. He sought to have a dentist remove it.
He and Miriam became fast friends. Story ends with her going crazy a year or so later and being gunned down in Washington DC? Whew! Big screen please! “Miriam Carey Women’s Mental Health Foundation” at least.
Interesting angle I hadn’t heard before.
Maybe she realized the face of evil, but couldn’t rationalize what was really taking place that sent her on a mission.
No telling. History will record her as being a Black, fully employed, mom of a little girl, who recently decided she didn’t need a particular medication anymore.
She drove to the White House and was quickly approached by armed security who were there doing their job to protect POTUS Obama. When they approached her with weapons drawn, she panicked in terror. The barrier she hit was being placed there as she tried to drive away. She hit it and the guard trying to put it in front of her car. A crazy incident.
I would never think of dropping in on a POTUS. I’m sure her family, her friends, her employer, all wish she hadn’t gone. Twenty-six rounds into her fleeing car. Five or six to the back and head. The one to the skull is believed to have been the fatal shot. I think there will be no more to add to this story. The little girl is now 8 years old.
It was never ever about race.
right. A bunch of goobers roaming around the House is equivalent to an automobile used to assault cops
There were some interesting conspiracies about her killing. They should do a DNA test on the baby.
She made a three-point turn, striking an officer who was trying to move a barricade into her path and then drove away.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Strikin an officer with a vehicle when under police orders to stop will get you shot by LEOs in any jusrisdiction in America.All she had to do was STOP and put her hands out the window.She would still be alive today.
Wasn’t 0buttbongo occupying the White House at the time?
