The media and the politicians made it sound like thousands of armed men were literally gunning for them. It looked pretty mild to me compared to Portland nightly for the past year.

Am I wrong to say elitist politicians are a lot like TRA? They think any move against them is "literally killing thousands"?

Nobody seems to care about that unarmed woman who was murdered by a Capitol policeman. I get it, she was trespassing. That sounds to me like you pay a fine, not get a bullet to the neck. When I took a gun safety class, they told me you can't shoot unless you are in grave fear for your life or the life of another. I can't believe an armed cop was in grave fear for his life against an unarmed woman in a QAnon t-shirt. I don't pretend to understand the QAnon group, but I know trespassing on the grounds of a building your tax dollars pay for should not be death sentence.

Nobody on the left is pissed b/c the woman was a white Trump supporter. They are all for criminal justice "reform" until it is someone they disagree with. They spend all summer demonizing the police all across America, didn't give one single flying fuck when officers were being attacked, assaulted and killed in riots that they repeatedly egged on, yet are all publicly mourning for the officer killed by the mob at the Capitol. Had that same officer dealt with a BLM riot a little roughly, they'd have doxxed him and been at his house that night with their mob. Just remember, nobody called it an armed insurrection when the mob outside the WH forced the secret service to move Trump. they called him bunker boy, bunker bitch, etc. That was a-ok with them b/c they agreed with the objective of the violence that day. The hypocrisy is so gross but the MSM is propaganda for them at this stage, so it is what it is.

Nobody on the right is pissed b/c she was involved in a violent riot and if you put yourself in a bad position, bad things tend to happen to you. TBH, i feel bad for her family, but she was responsible for her actions that day. Nobody knows what the mob she was with was screaming at that officer.

Totally true about the hypocrisy. It's always party over principles.

Nobody knows what the mob she was with was screaming at that officer.

Last I knew, being screamed at wasn't grounds for shooting the screamer dead though. She was trespassing.

I know a lot of people on here seem to be confirmed Democrats, so maybe many share that "oh well she was a white Trump voter, so no loss" view, but it's only a matter of time before "oh well, she was a TERF" is said about women's rights activists who might be gunned down for protesting what they feel is injustice.

if she and they were screaming "we're going to kill you", or any other threat of violence, and it appeared reasonable in that moment that they could actually carry the threat out, he had every right to shoot.

The thing about TERFs is already true amongst the TRA's and most left leaning people in general. The left is perfectly fine with violence in service of their cause; they aren't the least bit ashamed about it. How many of them stood up for the riots until they had to pull a soft condemnation of the burning, looting and violence ? Go check Rand Paul on twitter. Plenty of people openly stating that he should be met with violence for opposing men on women's sports teams. Not a single one will be banned.
