The conservative hypocrisy on Ashli Babbit is astonishing

[USAFRetired_Liberal]

They are all over twitter (I thought they were leaving and going to Parler) complaining that the officer who shot her isn’t facing any charges. The nerve of these people who post the opposite when a black person is killed by police.....crying over a domestic terrorist, but always saying that the black person should have complied.

1. And in this case

if the white person had complied they might be alive today.

2. Castle Defense

The Capitol Police Officer had a right to be there. It was his home, He was tasked with protecting it and the members of the Congress and Senate who abide there. It was his home.

Ashli Babbitt violated her oath as a Soldier to defend the Constitution by attacking the constitution and violently breaking and entering restricted Federal Property. She was breaking into the officer's home.

Are these not the same people who insist they have a right to stand their ground and defend their castles?

She was shot by law enforcement in the act of committing a felony assault with intent to assassinate Pence and Pelosi among others.

Even applying their IOKIYAR rules of engagement, Chauvin is guilty AF, and Babbitt got what she deserved for breaking the law.

6. Ashli Babbitt violated her oath as a Soldier

Small quibble from an actual soldier: Babbitt was an airman (air-person?).

3. You have to give them points for consistency

Consistently on the wrong side of everything, ever, but at least it's something.

7. They are funny though. They complain on twitter instead of

getting out of the house to protest. Probably safer for all of us.

4. She's the one who tried to crawl through the broken window when guns were pointed

at her face and the cops were yelling at all of them to get back?

Come back when she is shot in the back while trying to run away.

5. +1

The Traitors violently pushed through several layers of barriers, and it was that only when they got to the point that their proximity to members of congress was dangerously close was deadly force used.

And yes, they tried to violently overthrow the government by preventing the constitutional transfer of power.

10. The eight or so fellow terrorists arrested who were part of this attack should be charged

Link to tweet

Federal prosecutors have charged at least eight people who were in the crowd around Babbitt in the moments before she was shot. They include Christopher Ray Grider, a Texas winery owner who is accused of trying to kick in the Speaker’s Lobby doors; Zachary Jordan Alam, of Pennsylvania, who is accused of smashing the glass pane Babbitt attempted to crawl through; and Chad Barrett Jones, of Kentucky, who is accused of smashing another pane with a wood stick that had a Trump flag attached.

Authorities had suggested the possibility of bringing felony murder charges against rioters if Babbitt’s death was a foreseeable consequence of felony conduct by others, according to a person familiar with the matter. But they have since ruled out that possibility, given case law that allows such charges only in instances when an accomplice is responsible for a victim’s death, not a law enforcement officer.

D.C. police are required by law to identify officers involved in serious uses of force within five business days of an incident. They are also required to release video from body cameras of the officers directly involved. The law only applies to D.C. police. Capitol Police are not equipped with body cameras.
