Anyone who thinks the ICE agent in Minneapolis was justified but Byrd wasn’t is not a serious person. 
 

Really? Did Babbitt display or use a weapon?

“[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.

I just skimmed every page. Max-O definitely takes the crown with HT and 5-points close behind. Jonmx probably has the most tears but he didn’t beclown himself enough in the Minneapolis thread.

Congratulations ladies!

I would love to have Jon come back and flip his script 180 on so many topics, police shootings for one. Would be comedic gold.

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.  

Lol

I maintain the same standard for all police shootings.  Number 1 rule is anyone in immediate danger of being severely harmed or killed.  For Ashly Babbitt the answer is no.  For Good the answer is absolutly yes.  

Next questions from the idiots on the left who actually have absurd double-standards and are incapable of viewing any incident without the filter of their insane politics.

All the morons can do is put a laughing emoji because any response would expose how ignorant their opinion really is.

How about all the creeps the beat on the cops outside? According to you they all could have been shot by the cops.

You're comparing an officer protecting American lawmakers from an angry mob that has breached several layers of the capitol and just smashed through the last line of defense vs a Minnesota mom sitting in her car in her neighborhood.

Depends if they were in real danger and they had other means of stopping them.

There was no angry mob.  There were only a handful of people standing behind Ashley Babbitt and several of them secret service agents.  Absolutely no one was in any danger in that instance.   There is no rule which allows for the use of deadly force at that point.

A mob of hundreds beating on people, trampling them, ignoring orders to leave couldn’t be perceived as real danger to you. 

This is such a bizarre take.

[TBayXXXVII 2,686]

Personally, I have no problems with either shooting... Babbit or Good.  FAFO  NEITHER, should've been doing what they were doing.  BOTH were actively trying to be a-holes.  BOTH presented a danger.  Stop getting in the way of law enforcement from doing their legal job.

Did either "deserve" to die?  No, but their deaths were the consequence of their wreckless actions and while it sucks, so be it.

This is reasonable. I would say the scenario in Jan 6th was much more dangerous, completely out of control, hundreds of times more dangerous, etc. It’s amazing more people weren’t shot,

Calling this cop on Jan 6th a murderer, while saying the Minn shooting was clean is the dumbest of dumb.

Gross distortion of the truth.  It took years to get passed the five minutes of video the media played non-stop to get the fuller picture of what went down.  Only a handful of people broke in.  The vast majority were let in and were peacefully walking through the building.  Very few suffered serious injuries.  It was all media manipulated bull crap.   The same media which told all the brain dead morons that BLM were peaceful protests but yet somehow there were billions and billions of damage done across the country.  Thousands of times more damage than done on J6.

“The handful” could have been shot by your rationale. It’s cut and dry. Why do you go on with this? It’s so bizarre.

So skidmark, if there were cops beaten and trampled over at a barricaded Target what would you say if they shot someone?

I don’t know if I’d use the word “no problem,” but this is the correct take in that both were probably legally justified
