Who killed Ashli Babbitt?

Just think, if Trump hadn't architected the Great Lie that woman would be happily spreading memes about fake snow today instead of lying in a box underground.

I guess you didn’t listen to or dismissed Sam Harris’s podcast with General McChrystal and Chris Fussell.

Honestly when a large mob overwhelms the force protecting a branch of government a hail of gunfire is probably indicated.
Would anybody expect otherwise had it been the White House?

Security was abhorrent. The Mayor begged for no national guard presence. Capitol police was biased based on prior events of this nature. Right wing unrest was building for decades.
The 250+ arrested were 2/3 over 34, only 13% members of right wing groups, 40% were biz owners and or white collar, and only 9% unemployed. I can only imagine the other thousands were probably even more of that nature. Not your typical riot crowd if you were evaluating your invaders in real time.

Imagine if it was the white house. Would anybody have pondered the demographics and employment status of the crowd rushing the building?
Or would they have done what then needed to do to stop it?

Less than a year ago the Secret Service shot a man outside the white house complex that they deemed a threat.
They didn't release the shooter's name.

Anyone with any relationship to Congress the capitol police or FBI or Secret Service knows exactly who shot that woman.
That kind of information would spread instantly in any organization.
How has it been kept quiet is the question.

Miriam Carey... Still don't know who shot her, either.

That could be an inconvenient fact for some who feel they have a need to know about the Babbitt shooting.
I am certain that an internal investigation has already taken place and the officer involved has been accordingly cleared of any wrong doing. I realise there are people who feel and insist they have a need to know about this, but at the end of the day they do not have any need, let alone any right to know about a lot of internal police and security matters.

So with other police shootings the media demands immediate release of not just names but body cams, 911 calls and all evidence and any delay is excoriated. You disagreed with all that I assume?

There seem to be different standards for LEO vs the Secret Service and Capitol Police. None of you took note of that fact last year when each were involved in a shooting.

I assume that, since we don’t know his name, his medal ceremony will have to be private.

The media too? That’s news to me. I’m trying to figure out how that works with social media as well.

And that was with potential lawsuits and ALOT of media attention.
No, I don’t have a problem with the identity being kept quiet. I just wish that the same standard be applied towards police at the local level until the cases are fully investigated. How many officers have had their lives ruined because of the quick judgement of the mob that almost always winds up being based on incorrect facts.

I don't have a problem with keeping them anonymous, as long as the investigation is genuine, and there are safeguards against a whitewash (no pun intended)

Too bad the media and social media don’t feel the way people do here. Plastered all over the news is the right to know which law enforcement officer murdered the victim yet in this case crickets.

The one thing they all had in common though was they all drank the orange koolaid. I hear it's powerful stuff.

You argue in the face of the fact we know the name of the officer in any public police shooting (within U.S., U.S. citizen).
So, why not in this case?

Tell ya what...Scenario...Any city within America...
BLM riot. Protester breaks into a public building, be it courthouse, be it police station, whatever. An officer of the court fires on an unarmed BLM protester and kills them.
I'd like to hear your argument about why the matter would not be made public.
