Capitol Police officer. His pictures are in frames from videos. Some of them showed his weapon firing.

In your opinion, was deadly force justified?

Capitol Police. Not all of them wear uniforms.

If this was a BLM or Antifa victim, it would be looped on the mainstream media, along with incendiary commentary.

Yeah, if she was so awful, they would have stopped her. The ones behind her looked shocked that she was murdered. I am so damn tired of the lies and coverups of the elites.

No they did not. I watched it all day. They were not rioting.

Quit lying and trying to justify wrongdoing.

I’m not justifying his shooting, but I do doubt that.. he was mere feet from her an she was well locked onto her before he shot. Had he shot through the window yes could have hit anyone.

But this was a completely deliberate and focused act. Had he missed her the bullet would have hit the wall, may have ricocheted or thrown debris, Or penetrated depending on what thr was was made of.

But clearly this man was acting on “none shall pass”. He would have unloaded his clip and any other ammo he had before backing off that position.

Now, as I said, was he under orders of none shall pass? Because it’s clear the LEOs intermingled with the protestors were not threatening them with lethal force and for the most part relatively peacefully co existing given the overall circumstances.

True. The cops didn't seem worried at all. The group on the landing at the top of the stairs was small. They were not out of control or violent. There were enough cops among them and on the stairs to clear them out if they wanted to, but it appears the cops were not worried and were about to depart when the shot was fired. Clearly the cops in tac gear were not in communication with the security on the other side of the doors.

When dealing with unarmed people, you can't just draw a red line and shoot anyone who crosses it. But it seems like that might be what happened. They were acting like USSS protecting POTUS.

this guy should be prosecuted,(doubt he will) Ashli Babbitt didn’t deserve to be shot for trespassing.

Ok......it’s possible the House or Senate giving them a clothing allowance.

But there are cops in Chambers. They’re not in uniform as to blend it.

But if you conspiracy types want the guy to be a plumber, KGB, painter, cook, window washer, CIA or a Tiger Trainer.......go right ahead.

I’m simple commenting based on my experience in that type of business.

There ARE uniform officers and plain cloths officers in the Capitol.

You could wait for Lin Wood to I.D. the guy as Pablo Escobar’s cocaine delivery dude..........

Sheeeeesh..........

She was bleeding-out too fast for any serious medical attention in that hallway. She would have had to be in an OR to *possibly* save her. The bullet most likely severed the aorta or carotid arteries, and she was drowning in her own blood, as her lungs filled-up.

True and my post stands.

DC lied when they said police immediately provided aid.

That is exactly what the guy who shot was doing. Those doors were his line and he was going to shoot anyone who crosses it and that’s exactly what he did.. she started to enter and he did not hesitate at all to kill her.

He was wearing a blue dress shirt with cufflinks. And a suit.
Not a police uniform.
Look at your still pictures again.

How many can wear a cross out in the open?

Does D.C. have police in plainclothes in the Senate chamber, or do they wear uniforms there? A question that might be answered, for those who don’t see it as being obvious.

Is this a riddle?

Gee, I don’t know.

Such a skeptic you are......you tell me who the person is.........

In fact, he can be whoever or whatever you want him to be.
