What Was In Ashli Babbitt’s Backpack When She Was Shot Dead by a Capitol Hill Police Officer ?

Gateway Pundit, by Tayler Hansen

 

On January 6th, 2021, Ashli Babbitt, a 14 year Air Force Veteran, was shot and killed by a Capitol Police Officer.

 

The Capitol Police continue to hide details of her shooting death from the American public..It was the only shooting incident at the US Capitol on January 6, 2021. The Officer who shot Ashli Babbit reportedly said Ashli’s backpack factored into him killing her. But what was actually inside Ashli’s backpack?

 

(Snip)

 

So does wearing a backpack give an officer an excuse to shoot you dead now? In a public statement made by the Police Officers’ Attorney, Mark Schamel, he states the backpack Ashli was wearing compounded the Officers fears.

 

It was the only shooting incident at the US Capitol on January 6, 2021.

LOL, says a Trump supporter 🤣

 

Educate yourself.

 

 

You don't have to look stupid.

 

 

I'll help you.  Look for his families posts, or the Capitol's police posts.

 

 

Your reflex Trump response just illustrates that you don't know what is going on.

A Study Shows VERY FEW Capitol Hill Rioters Were QAnon Red-Staters With Ties to 'Right-Wing' Groups

 

A survey by the University of Chicago finds that most Capitol Hill rioters had no ties to any fringe right-wing groups and were merely engaged people outraged by what they believed was a rigged election.

 

<snip>

The survey found that approximately 10% percent of the Capitol rioters had a connection with Proud Boys, which they describe as a “hate group,” and Oath Keepers.

Nearly 90% had no ties or right-wing affiliations whatsoever.

And they found out that 85% of the people arrested were business owners or held down white-collar jobs.

Well no duh.

These are the two groups the liberals hate and seek to destroy, thus it makes sense they were the one there outraged and buying into the ‘rigged’ narrative. These groups will be the losers of all legislation for at least the next 22 months. 
 

They fear their upward mobility and are an existential threat to elitist control.

Dropped off my daughter to first day of full time school, there was an armed cop and couple of fellas

who looked like ex cia staring us down at the drop off.

 

Yours may be the best case scenario, I have my Anne Frank man cave all ready just in case.

The Washington Post reports that “momentum is stalling amid congressional efforts to swiftly investigate the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol.” Good.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/capitol-riot-congressional-inquiries/2021/03/16/a667c1ac-85ca-11eb-82bc-e58213caa38e_story.html

 

The Democrats want to use the riot for political purposes. They hope, with assistance from the always-obliging media, to present it as the tip of an insurrectionary iceberg spearheaded by hardcore Trump supporters.

 

To this end, Nancy Pelosi favors a 9/11 style commission. 

 

But comparing Jan. 6 and 9/11 is absurd on many levels. For purposes of determining the need for a a commission, a key difference is this: It was clear after 9/11 that the U.S. needed to overhaul its approach to combatting the persistent threat of international terrorism. We even created a new cabinet level department for this purpose.

 

By contrast, all that Jan. 6 shows is that the Capitol police needs to be better prepared in the very unlikely event that the confluence of circumstances that produced the attack — a disputed election in which the defeated candidate sought to avoid certification of the result by Congress — or something similarly anomalous occurs again.

 

Nonetheless, Republicans, understandably stunned by the attack on the Capitol, initially were inclined to go along with the Democrats’ project. Having calmed down, they now see that project for what it is. Hence, the “stalled momentum” for an investigation.

 

The January 6 attack on the Capitol was appalling. Those who violated the law at the Capitol that day should be prosecuted. Those who engaged in violence should be punished severely (as should the left-wing rioters who have been engaging in violence and assaults on government buildings for the better part of a year).

 

But this a matter for law enforcement, not a congressional investigation and certainly not a commission. I doubt there’s any evidence that the U.S. faces an appreciable threat of an insurrection by any element of the right.

 

And even if such evidence exists, it’s still a matter for law enforcement to investigate and, if necessary, counter. There is no reason other than raw partisan politics — an attempt to investigate and disparage hardcore Trump supporters — for Congress to become involved beyond simply correcting flaws in its police force.

 

Mitch McConnell argues that Pelosi’s proposed commission is too narrow. He says its focus should extend to all groups that engage in political violence. This would include Antifa and other outfits that have behaved violently and destructively in the name of Black Lives Matter.

 

McConnell’s position makes sense in the abstract. If there’s going to be a commission, the scope of its investigation should certainly encompass the leftist groups that have perpetrated the vast majority of politically-related violence in recent times.

 

McConnell has found a reasonable-sounding basis for not going along with Pelosi. However, the best basis for not going along is that there’s no need for a commission to study any forms of domestic political violence, and any such commission would become a political football on day one.
