During the execution of a search warrant on March 13, 2020, 26-year-old emergency room technician Breonna Taylor was fatally shot and Louisville police Sgt. Jonathan Mattingly was shot and nearly killed.

The incident sparked an establishment media feeding frenzy marked by a combination of facts and hysteria, resulting in a public outcry marked by violence in the streets and a war on cops.

“MSNBC will be mad.”

I’d think they would be used to being punk’d and debunked by now. It seems to be the normal state of things - take what they say and turn it around 180 degrees.

... As his wife stood at his hospital bedside, Mattingly told her, “I would ask [Kenneth Walker] why Breonna was standing right there next to him. Why so close? Why put her in harm’s way if you truly thought we were intruders? Why leave her in the hallway while you jumped to safety after you fired the shot that hit me?”

While talking to Breitbart News Sunday, Mattingly stressed again that Breonna was standing in the hallway with Walker and that Walker fired at police then dove into the bedroom, leaving Breonna in the hallway alone. Mattingly said Breonna was shot as police returned fire into the hallway. He noted the claims that she was shot while lying in her bed are simply inaccurate.

Yeah, MSNBC has been full on commietard for a while now.

If there is one thing the media is good at, it’s spreading lies.

At his website, the letters AWR are capitalized while Hawkins is not entirely capitalized, possibly indicating they are initials for three given names.

No chance! They won’t report on this, or if they do, they’ll have to spin it that some alt-right Jan 6th supporting nazi is lying about saint Breonna.

It's absolutely true that MSNBC has been full on commietard..., however Mattingly is full of crap in his criticism of Kenneth Walker, and he fails to mention his fellow "Officer" firing blindly through a drawn window shade.

Thanks. Makes sense. I wondered that.

She was unarmed. They shot and killed her. None of the officers involved are facing charges for it. What’s the point of this now?

Wasn’t she a former emergency room technician? Thought she lost that gig after she couldn’t explain the dead body found in her rental car?

Walker was acquitted of shooting this officer, despite admitting that he heard them knocking and heard them announce that they were police.

He used Taylor as a human shield.

He should have been convicted of this and the murder of Taylor, under the felony murder statute, if KY has it.

Well, now: That account differs from everything else I’d skimmed and dismissed as BS.

Go figure.

She was standing behind a guy that was shooting at cops. What would you expect to happen, the cops don’t shoot back? She had been facilitating her drug dealing boyfriend for years. She supplied cars and a safe house for drug dealers. My dad always told me that if you play in dirt you are bound to get some on you. She had it all over her. The poor innocent Breonna Taylor murder is a bunch of BLM lying hype. I’m not saying she should have died but if you stand with someone shooting at cops you don’t have a right to expect safety.

You pretty much just did.

And nothing you said contradicts what I said.

Most of the press cares little about accuracy (see Tagline).

Taylor was killed due to police procedure. When some one breaks in your door in the middle of the night there is no requirement that you wait to find out who they are. it was legal for the police to break in to the apartment with a warrant, it was legal for the boyfriend to defend himself against home invaders, and it was legal for the cops to return fire. Taylor’s death, according to our laws was completely legal and one would think that would prompt a change somewhere. I know what I would change is to make forced entry by cops illegal outside of hostage situations. What would you change?
