EternalShinyAndChrome 3,369 Posted November 25 Unbelievable. This cop is no hero and yet the MSM took the side of the loose-cannon cop where in ALL other instances have taken the side of the victim (i.e. george floyd, etc...): https://tennesseestar.com/justice/officer-who-fatally-shot-j6-protestor-ashley-babbitt-has-lengthy-disciplinary-record/jtnews/2024/11/21/ https://jonathanturley.org/2024/11/21/report-the-officer-who-killed-ashli-babbitt-had-a-long-history-of-disciplinary-and-training-problems/comment-page-1/ The incidents described in Loudermilk’s letter are corroborated by congressional records and police reports that date as early as 2004 including: A 2004 incident where Byrd, who was off duty, fired his weapon at a stolen vehicle as it was fleeing his residential neighborhood; A 2015 “conduct unbecoming an officer” complaint filed by a fellow officer after Byrd, again off duty, confronted him while the officer was working at a high school football game in an incident with racial overtones; A 33-day suspension in 2019 after Byrd left his service weapon unattended in a public Capitol Hill bathroom; A failure to pass a routine background check shortly after Jan. 6 when attempting to purchase a shotgun for home protection, after the USCP worked to provide Byrd a department-issued shotgun instead, he failed the training; and Three further referrals to the Capitol Police Office of Professional Responsibility for which records are reportedly missing. This guy shouldn't have been on the force, much less been there to shoot someone opening a window. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonmx 2,118 Posted November 26 Anyone who defended that shooting is a complete POS and any police officer who supported it should be fired. Byrd should be serving 10 plus years in prison for murder. Can't wait for adults to be in charge again and justice is done and the corrupt and abusive bastards are thrown out of jobs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was obviously her intent, to lead an angry mob with clubs, tire irons, flag poles among other weapons, into the House Chambers to attack Pelosi, AOC, Mike Pence, etc. What does anyone think the crowd would have done if they had gotten their hands on the legislators?

Tree of Knowledge 1,422 Posted November 26 Now that we know, beyond a shadow of doubt, the 2020 election was stolen all mostly peaceful protestors should be pardoned and fully compensated for their misery.

MDC 6,705 Posted November 26 An internal USCP investigation completed in August 2021 determined that then-Lieutenant Byrd’s conduct was “lawful and within Department policy.” As a result, the department concluded that Byrd would not face any internal discipline for the officer involved shooting. “[An] officer may use deadly force only when the officer reasonably believes that action is in the defense of human life, including the officer’s own life, or in the defense of any person in immediate danger of serious physical injury,” USCP policy says. “The actions of the officer in this case potentially saved Members and staff from serious injury and possible death from a large crowd of rioters who forced their way into the U.S. Capitol and to the House Chamber where Members and staff were steps away,” USCP determined, concluding that Byrd’s actions were justified.
