Byrd did his job my azz. That was outright murder under all US law and case law.

The Capitol building is not a “deadly force” red lone are like a nuclear bunker. All normal rules apply. Congressmen are not protected by deadly force because you crawl in a window.
She was unarmed, and he illegally precluded all lesser uses of force. He could have physically arrested her, he was MUCH larger. He could have used pepper spray, a taser, a baton, etc.

If this same exact shooting happened at your local mayor’s office window, the FBI would have descended on the cop and he would be in prison for murder. Emotions aside, you cannot gun someone down because they are angry and approaching a congressmans office.

Especially when regular ppl are being convicted of murder for merely defending themselves during BLM “protests.” In the latest case, the perp pointed an AK-47 at the victim who shot and killed him. Now he’s going to rot in jail. In Byrd’s case, he shot an unarmed white woman. When is HIS trial starting?

He could have ordered her to move away, told her to leave or he'd use his weapon. He did neither.
