Who killed Ashli Babbitt?
-
Again, what if it had been the White House last summer? 500 BLM vermin instead of 500 magat vermin.
How many would have been carried away in bags?
We can’t know the exact number, obviously, but we all know it would have been many more than one.
What’s the difference?
PS. A constitutionalist will tell you that Congress is not a co-equal branch of government with the executive. It’s actually the primary branch.

Imagine instead a violent mob physically breaking windows and doors in the white house trying to gain entry. How many of the filthy, oxygen-wasting vermin would eat lead?
Care to take a shot at that question Jolly?

Nope. You avoided it then as now.

Feel free to say “I think if a violent mob of hundreds had tried to breach non-public areas of the White House last summer the secret service wouldn’t have killed anybody” if that’s what you truly believe.
-
George you’re also welcome to say that if you believe it.

There is no need to speculate
The British burned the place down
Dolly Madison grabbed a portrait of Washington and abandoned the place
Nobody died

I haven't avoided it at all.
The rules for an officer to discharge his weapon is if he is in imminent danger, if innocent life is at stake or if (in some jurisdictions) a fugitive is in flight. I think you know that.
The question in Babbitt 's case is how much danger did she pose? Did she pose a danger to the officer or to the people he was protecting? Did she have a weapon! Why didn't any other officer discharge his weapon that day? Why did he shoot, when other officers were standing right next to her and could have been hit by a pass-through?
Is there a difference between a Trump mob and an Antifa mob? Apparently, one is to be exterminated and one is to be celebrated. That seems to be the sentiment among some.
Would I have shot Ashli Babbitt?
No. Not on that side of the window and not with other officers standing next to her. Would I have shot her on the other side of the window?
Probably.
But in no way should a police shooting be an anonymous event.

Still avoiding the question.
I think we can all divine your answer. It’s something like this:
“Of course it would have been a blood bath had this happened at the White House any time in the last several decades.
So for that reason I would much rather compare this to a random police stop in Tempe, Arizona or some black thugs looting a Banana Republic in Santa Cruz or attacking one of thousands of federal court buildings with no one inside.”
-
You answered a different question because you know with moral certainty that this would have been a blood bath at the White House.
-
So now you’re essentially asking where on the White House property would the blood bath have occurred. It’s a reasonable question but it doesn’t help you much in your broader point.
-
Tell me, Jon, where would you have shot her?
Would you enjoy that iron smell of hot blood as it splattered on the wall and drained away on the floor? Would you have been delighted at the smell of MAGAT feces, as her anal sphincter relaxed and she soiled her clothes? Would you grin a small, fleeting smile of satisfaction at a deed well done?
Nah, me neither.
-
I can answer your question even as you avoid mine.
I wouldn’t have enjoyed her death in particular however I think the country would be better off had several of the insurgents shared her fate. It’s not about punishing them at all, it’s about preventing this happening every time the Magats don’t get their way.
-
By the way I would feel the same if it was some BLM vermin rather than a Magat vermin. I hold them in similar disregard.

Where is the debate? Put yourself in the officer's position. You have a mob who has broken through the capital or white house outside perimeter, have then breached the inner perimeter, breached the building, have flooded down the hallways and are now literally breaking down the final barrier between the mob and the congress/president you are sworn to protect. You hold up your gun for a few seconds as the first person gets through the barrier.... you shoot.
Like others have said, I'm surprised it wasn't a bigger blood bath. Also, I'd wager the shooting did exactly what it was supposed to do. It absolutely stopped that breach immediately.
