Police Officer Responsible For Killing Trump Supporter Suspended Pending Investigation
Summit News ^ | 7 January, 2021 | Paul Joseph Watson

Posted on 01/07/2021 4:09:29 PM PST by george76

The police officer who shot Trump supporter Ashli Babbitt dead has been suspended and the incident is currently under investigation.

Babbitt was shot in the neck at almost point blank range during yesterday’s chaos in DC during the storming of the Capitol building.

Footage of the shocking incident clearly shows that non-lethal measures could have been used against Babbitt, who served her country during a 14 year stint in the Air Force.

The officer who shot Babbitt, who was wearing a suit and positioned inside the Senate chamber when he opened fire, has now been suspended pending an investigation.

US Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund also said that there would be a “thorough review” of security measures following the incident.

Sund said in his statement that officers had acted “valiantly” against rioters who “actively attacked United States Capitol Police Officers and other uniformed law enforcement officers with metal pipes, discharged chemical irritants, and took up other weapons against our officers.”

As we highlighted earlier, some leftist commentators called for police to shoot Trump supporters before Babbitt was killed, while others gloated over her death on Facebook and Twitter.

Three other people died during the bedlam, but authorities have only revealed that they were killed as a result of “medical emergencies.”

Immediately after the shooting, mainstream media journalists such as Huffington Post’s Matt Fuller falsely claimed that Trump supporters were shooting into the chamber, when the opposite was true.

If this happened in UK or Australia etc, you would have a coroner report who will investigate impartially what happened and whether it could have been avoided and that report will be acted upon by the public prosecutor if required.
There will be also be a police integrity investigation if the person was a cop.

Consider this is America and the victim a white women, a veteran and a trump supporter, expect nothing to happen.

We need his name

Perhaps a group will post a reward for his name leading to his capture. There would be lots of contributions.

I hope to witness organized marches across America. They need to witness the enormity of the disenfranchised.

Yes. Biden supporters should remove those Biden signs or they may witness up close.

Investigation?!?

Sure... Just like the investigation of an FBI sniper who gunned down an innocent, unarmed woman who was holding a baby in her arms...

How did that investigation turn out?
Hmmm.. Oh yeah... He got a big promotion and is still roaming free...

Kyle Rittenhouse was locked away for defending his life against two armed criminals. This cop who shot an innocent unarmed woman should also be put away for life. But you know and I know that ain’t going to happen.

I really look forward to watching these puke so-called reporters appear before the LORD GOD of Heaven at the Great White Throne judgement of the lost. These deranged and demonic people are going to hit their knees and admit He IS GOD!!! And He will deal with them for their actions!! They are not going to like the outcome. These people have believed the lie that Paul speaks of in the New Testament and have had the great delusion dropped upon them by GOD for rejecting what His Son did on the Cross at Calvary!!!

I’ll wager the shooter was a scared woman who was shaking so much that she had a Glock trigger accident.

I agree and can’t wait for them to justify before God, “but the Supreme Court said abortion is okay”

Yeah, that will work.

I don’t believe this. Cops don’t wear cuffs. Cop employees don’t wear cuffs. I bet it was either a congress person or a senior staffer. The person was known to those cops in the area. It looks like it may have been a female. Maxine??

That wasn't me suggesting that the shooter was a woman. I was just quoting what someone else on this thread said. That is why the comment was in italics. We use italics here for quoting others.

I don't think for a minute that the shooter was a woman. I think the images I provided showed it was almost certainly a black man.

The murder was filmed by John Sullivan a BLM criminal, supported by DC Mayor Muriel Bowser. Tell us why he was inside the Capital, at whose invitation? Was the murder of Ashli Babbit a prearranged hit? If so, did Kamala Harris or Nancy Pelosi, full of hate, order the hit?

That assault on the Capitol was almost certainly instigated by anarcho-communist types like Antifa and white (also communist) so-called “Black Lives Matter” revolutionaries posing as right-wingers. The commie-left has been doing this sort of crap for many years. ie, infiltrating various organizations and events.

I’m thinking the 4chan or 8chan group will find out the shooter’s name.

They will sweep this under the rug and later give him a metal!

Has anyone noticed that no one goes to jail in the beltway unless his name is TRUMP!

First, she wasn’t ‘peaceful’, she was engaged in a riot.
Second, there is no Constitutional right to storm the Senate floor while the Senate is in session.
