US capital building gets breached. Is this the end?

You talk about the severity of the situation because of the people behind the door but the cops were not enforcing the security of that important premises with lethal force in general. So, it was simply not to be expected. It was done with zero warning that he was serious, no verbal warning no loud sounds no hand signals on a day when the rest of the cops were wearing kid gloves, and to the person who probably least deserved it.

If the cop were not lurking behind cover so overly-concerned for his own welfare he could have pistol whipped her at the window, he could have fired over the people's heads and sent them scattering like roaches. He could have done more. But he was panicked, or eager to shoot, or really internalized that dogma that the cop's life is the very most important one (but why yes i am a hero too).

Don't excuse the needless death of this poor lady because of your politics. And don't stay glued on your point like a kid. Go watch the video. A gunshot's percussion in that enclosed space with a crowd is PANIC inducing, man could have held the door with blanks but killed someone just in case. Probably following his training, which is therefore clearly flawed. I'm not a psycho feminist so I'm allowed to say that it's totally fucked up and pathetic for a man to shoot a woman in the throat without warning for looking through a window with the apparent intention to start threading her leg through it imminently, whoever it is down the hall.

If you're militarized cops, act like militarized cops uniformly. Don't surprise-pop the most sympathetic character on the scene and leave Baked Alaska in Pelosi's office to stream. No forceful verbal warnings, no clear posturing to fire, no nothing. Yes it's the heat of the moment, but if you can't calculate in the heat of the moment don't take a martial profession.

She was a girl riled up on group psychology, not a potent threat. The gunshot totally broke the mood at that doorway if ya didn't notice. Cop could have done more. Could have fired into the ceiling, could have behaved with honor. But instead followed training to the letter with no mercy. I'm not calling for him to be imprisoned -- this is entropy at work, really, the entropy of many poor-quality human beings--, only calling him a shame on his family. People who go blind when they face danger should not be police. And I'm lamenting the utterly senseless death of a mentally ill woman, killed by chaos in perhaps the most controllable of all situations on the premises that day. And bemoaning the poor quality of any loved ones in her life who did not discourage this behavior. And lastly, sad to see the tribal apologetics for state violence every time it is applied to the audience's "other side".

Loser shot a woman. Could have achieved the same stopping power with a firecracker. Bad cop, no donut.

Depending on which video you watched, the cops in this situation warned the woman and the guys around her not to cross the barricade before the video under threat of lethal force. The guys tried to keep her back but she was in a frenzy and leapt over anyway.

She was warned, and even if she wasn't, this is someone who had already committed an extremely serious crime simply being where she was doing what she was doing, and crossing that barricade was elevating it even further. She deserved to get blown away just like Michael Brown

Anyone who assaults Congress during an electoral process with an intent to try and disrupt said process and ensure the losing candidate ends up as president deserves to be shot. That is literally insurrection and treason, which is legally punishable by death. If people try and pull that bs again anytime in the next few days I hope the national guard opens fire on every single person in the crowd. You don’t get to just try and disrupt democracy and install a dictator and then complain if someone gets shot doing it.

As an aside, what’s really amazing to me is the leftists complaining that the whole situation shows white privilege while at the same time criticizing the one cop who shot someone lol morons

she thinks we are the traitors not doing our civic duty because we watch the fake news and don't think critically about the wisdom of the cartoon frog. she was not a traitor (at least, probably not). just deeply confused and misused by the chaos wizards who are the real murderer and betrayer in this situation. burn those people, not pretty girls.

also, install some fucking shatterproof glass and at least one blast door. holy fuck. even the AIPAC office i went to in Las Vegas had that.

anyway, i didn't see the video evidence that communication that that hallway = death (but for real this time, not like the rest of the place they allowed entry to) was made. so i'll lay off about it. but I sure bet still that a whiz-banger over her head would have done the trick. and don't cheer this shit on you psychos.

PS what the fuck are you talking about white privilege, but calling me a leftist you literal reversi-brain. i just don't like seeing people get killed because the machine is indelicate and militarized and some scumbag cop couldn't take a 0.001% risk to themself to save a human life. uniformly. and I don't get wet in the undies because the victims of my real political enemies are going to jail, either. Although I don't see an alternative for keeping this nonsense under control.

I don't buy the notion of Trump supporters as victims. I think that's selling them short. Next you're going to tell me all the Islamic terrorists were just innocently practicing their peaceful religion until some evil Imam came along and used his evil genius to manipulate them into blowing up a Christmas festival.

Some large component of Trump's magnetism has been the ability for this nation's literal deplorables to see something of themselves in a person of real power. This political sect existed before Trump, but it has certainly evolved with him over these last 5 years into something of a toxic cult.

Probably should have shot every single one of them that came through the door. Insurrection should be put down forcefully lest it crop up again.

Redneckistan says that about BLM. You’re both useful idiots for bad ideas. Tianenmen must never take place on American streets, for any reason

[magnetaress]

I'm really mad but its wasteful to think so much about what is personally beyond me.

I felt a huge pang of guilt at not being one of those guardsmen and chipping in.

For that, I accept my share of responsibility.

Most fascist thing said in this thread so far. Take a moment to reflect on that. Not a good look...
