Ashli Babbitt, Murdered?
greg58:
I see the unnamed officer who shot Ashli Babbitt was relieved of duty, but have really not seen much discussion about the circumstances of her Murder/Execution.
Now based on video that I had to go to British Press to watch, it appears that the Officer involved was laying in wait for the first person to poke their head through the door and shot to kill.
I did not see how unarmed Ashli Babbitt was a direct threat to the Officer. I did not know that the punishment for trespassing or vandalism was on the spot execution.
There is audio with the video, and the man filming warns that there is an officer with a gun, but never heard any warning from the officer, who appears to be 8-10' from Babbitt and out of sight to her left, I doubt she even saw the officer.
Sad day, and nobody is talking about it!
Greg

Too soon to say, obviously. E.g., did the officers have an ability to retreat or were they trapped in that corridor? Was there an unarmed Senator in an office behind them they were trying to protect, with no ability to get away? Etc. etc.
All I know is that if an angry mob of Mostly Peaceful Protestors were outside my house, and they broke a window to come in, and the first guy is crawling in the window with thirty more screaming behind him, I don't care if he is "an unarmed veteran". If you don't shoot the first guy coming in the window and wait for the fifth or tenth guy to come in the window, you're too late.
Now we're going to have to hear her referred to for the next year as "Unarmed Veteran Ashli Babbit", the same way we had to hear about "Unarmed Black Teen Who Looked Like Obama's Son Treyvon Martin."

Three million patriots attended that rally in DC. They extended from the steps of the capital to beyond the Washington monument and spilled into the streets on both sides for blocks. Videos show a peaceful crowd milling around in front of the front steps. Many weren't wearing masks, despite covid, so they weren't trying to conceal their identity. They didn't carry chains, or baseball bats with nails, or bottles of urine, or fireworks, or concealed weapons (folks had to pass through metal detectors).

They were a PEACEFUL assembly of citizens exercising their 1st Amendment right. Yet, despite that scene, CNN and the rest of the lying media labeled them "violent rioters". Last year, with a backdrop of burning cars, businesses, public and private buildings, wounded and murdered citizens, CNN called Antifa and the BLM "mostly peaceful protestors". They said the same thing about the thugs taking control of the center of Portland, which was a real insurrection against a local government.
Videos of the DC rally show a guard opening a fence-gate and waving the people into the area of the front steps of the capital. Other videos show guards opening the doors to the anteroom, and in there talking and joking with members of the crowd and even posing for selfies. A video shows two people trying to break a window and the crowd of patriots began shouting "antifa, antifa, antifa", and shortly there after some in the crowd stop the attempted destruction. Videos show a peaceful crowd milling around in front of the front steps.
The DC guard who did the shooting knew at least two things: the person he pointed the gun at was a woman, and she was unarmed. On the other hand, as a former military police officer she knew better than to do what she was doing, but how do you get your representatives to hear your grievances if they won't respond to your calls and replies with form letters, tell you what you want to hear while campaigning but do the opposite after they take office?
I wasn't a fan of Trump. He behaved in reprehensible ways before becoming president, but he understood the meaning of freedom, free enterprise and capitalism. Marxist understand none of that. Despite what they saw with their own eyes, IF, they were watching even the MSM, when it became obvious to them that Trump would not succeed in his attempts to undo the Chicago Style voting scheme used to elect Biden the Republicans abandon Trump to avoid being attacked by the Marxist. I expected Sasse to say what he did, but I was surprised by Fisher and Thortenberry. They will soon learn that the Marxist will attack them anyway because they are not Marxists. Marxist even shoot their own wounded and eat their young if they don't strictly adhere to the dogma as presented by their dear leaders.
Consider that 1/5th of Congress openly declares themselves to be members of the "Progressive Congressional Caucus". "Progressive" is an invisibility cloak to hide the word "Marxist". Many more are in the Senate, and there are a lot of "fellow travelers" in both houses, SCOTUS, and many court houses around the country. The Marxist have been very successful in their "long march" through our institutions.
I have been a Republican since Goldwater. I voted for him when they said that if I did there would be war. They were right. There was war. Johnson started it by lying about the Bay of Tonkin incident. I will never vote for a Democrat as long as their party platform is a carbon copy of the old CPUSA platform. And, I will no longer vote for a Republican as long as they behave like Dem-Lites. Therefore, a couple of months ago, I unregistered as a Republican and am now not affiliated with any party.
A WORD OF WARNING:
The Marxist now control ALL of the branches of our government. You can expect a complete repeal of the 2nd Amendment and begin confiscation. An overhaul of the 1st will modify or remove "freedom of religion" and "freedom of assembly". If you want to know what the justification for the last two will be just look at what's been happening for the last year, just to "keep you safe".... and out of work and in need of government assistance if you were unlucky enough to be in the "non-essential" category of employment.
Biden will also stop coal, gas and oil production, making us dependent on mid-East oil again. Be prepared to ride your bike to work because you won't be able to afford gas for your car, if you can find gas. Using an electric vehicle? There won't be enough energy available to charge them. Modern farming is just a way of using land to convert oil into food. No oil? No food. The weight loss diet you've always wanted will be forced upon you.
Didn't like ObamaCare? Too bad. Expect it to come back in spades.
You can also expect to see Biden as a "token" president with Harris pulling his chains behind the scenes until Jan 24th, 2024, when the Dems will use the 25th to toss Biden to the curb and give Harris the presidency for the next 12 years. I probably won't be alive in 2036 but those who will be won't recognize what used to be the USA and will rue the day they bought into the "free stuff". To see which way our country is headed consult Venezuela.
I'm now 79. The State asked me to investigate a murder in 1987 and to testify against the psycho killer in his retrial in 1997. In 2012 some do-gooders thought it would be a great idea to release him, even after he threatened to kill everyone in his family and all those who helped to imprison him. That's when I got my CC permit and three semi-auto pistols. After the do-gooders plans fell through I sold my primary CC weapon, the 9mm Nano. I haven't fired the other two firearms since 2015. I doubt I ever will fire them. It's the end of an era in so many ways.
