The Capitol Police officer who fatally shot Ashli Babbitt during the Jan. 6 riots and then was promoted has a lengthy internal affairs and disciplinary record that includes firearm-related incidents, a sweeping congressional investigation has found.

The issues in Captain Michael Byrd's background included a failed shotgun qualification test, a failed FBI background check for a weapon's purchase, a 33-day suspension for a lost

Officer involved “ in an incident with racial overtones.” We hear about this years later??? He basically was reprimanded for blasting guns in all directions and has incidents with racial overtones???? Geeez.

[rlmorel]

I recall the ignorant, racist, malicious, incompetent turd left his firearm in a restroom.

And he got a promotion and a commendation.

We shall not forget this.

"[An] officer may use deadly force only when the officer reasonably believes that action is in the defense of human life, including the officer’s own life, or in the defense of any person in immediate danger of serious physical injury," USCP policy says.

Time to shoot every unarmed protester and claim the same policy as the USCP.

Yes, even if it is considered manslaughter by the libs, manslaughter by definition is a form of murder. He murdered her.

I wonder if any of the kitted up officers that were within 15 feet of Ashley Babbit will ever testify as to whether or not they thought she was an imminent threat to anybody before she was gunned down.

Two things can be true at once:

1) This guy sucks, and

2) Don't climb through broken windows in a building you've broken into when men with guns are telling you not to do so.

2) Don't climb through broken windows in a building you've broken into when men with guns are telling you not to do so.

Yes, because the only option was to shoot her. Brilliant deduction Einstein.

He should l be arrested. He should have been arrested that day. He committed the murder of Ashli Babbitt.

[Ann Archy]

They need to ARREST HIM on JAN. 20!!

[Strict9]

an insurrection of an unarmed blonde girl where the only shooting was a murder by a racist cop with a history of shooting at things for no reason. Quite the insurrection.

[Ann Archy]

After he MURDERED Ashli, Biden’s people put him up at a Military base!!!

[Dartoid]

How do you fail a shotgun qualification test?

[Strict9]

I guess you fail shotgun qualification if you aren’t qualified to be anywhere around a shotgun.

“Yes, even if it is considered manslaughter by the libs, manslaughter by definition is a form of murder. He murdered her.”

Manslaughter is murder without the premeditated caveat. Traffic deaths are often considered manslaughter as it wasn’t premeditated however, if there was alcohol involved or drugs involved in the traffic accident that resulted in the death of someone then that is whole different conversation.
