What’s more believable, roving assassination squads gunning down innocent civilians or the fact that each situation should be judged on facts of the case? Again, I asked about Ashli Babbit being unarmed and shot by a Capitol Police officer. Does that fall into the category of justified shooting, though she was unarmed and extremely unlikely to pose any threat to a well-trained male police officer more than a few feet away? This situation can be addressed calmly and rationally by those in control of the decision-making, a full accounting of their actions and video that is surely available. A neighbor has suggested they witnessed the FBI breaching the door with a battering ram, and pierced the front window of the home with a tactical vehicle. If that’s true, it’s much more complicated than they engaged in a nice peaceful conversation and the guy drew his weapon. The lack of transparency at this point is a bit concerning, the lack of questions for seekers of truth in the media even more so. This comes from the perspective of someone who aligns more with @The Frankish Reich than anything else. 3

Expand First, thanks for the shoutout in your response. On Babbitt: yes, she was unarmed. But of course she also didn't go through security (nobody did, that was kind of the whole thing), and she did try to smash her way into the inner chambers, obviously ignored a law enforcement officer trying to stop exactly that, and she wasn't exactly a small woman all by herself. So a lot of this is after-the-fact second guessing of a law enforcement officer's decision that deadly force was warranted.
