As the media continue to scream INSURRECTION!!! at the tops of their lungs, inconvenient video keeps showing up of police leading calm and obedient demonstrators through the building. Far from a violent riot, they are staying between the guide ropes as requested by officials.

Meanwhile the DC Cops killed an unarmed woman live on video and the media have very little to say about that.
Pretty weak-sauce for an "attempted putsch", if you ask me.
Oh, and the assholes breaking the windows turn out to be Antifa/BLM, as predicted.
So, yeah. As far as "rioters violently storming the US Capitol building," yes Antifa was there and yes they did break a couple of windows. Including the one that Ashli Babbitt got shot through. Video shows she did not break that window, it was broken by a bearded hipster. She was killed for not following orders fast enough on her guided tour.
There was also the Capitol Police officer who died of injuries sustained during Wednesday's events while engaging with the "protestors."
ReplyDeleteHalf the problem with visual evidence is that it doesn't tell the whole story. Just as an example, consider the infamous photo, taken during the Tet Offensive, of a South Vietnamese general about to execute a captured Viet Cong guerrilla. What the photo didn't mention was that he'd just found out that a very close friend of his had just gotten home and found his entire family executed by the VC.
I'll tell you what Tom. You go watch the various videos of Ashli Babbitt getting shot, and tell me you don't have enough information to form an informed opinion.
ReplyDeleteAlso, government officials don't get to take their emotions out on prisoners. That's how we get civil wars in the first place.
We'll find out in all good time what happened to the police officer who died as well. Whoever did that needs to be seen to, in the courts, properly. I'm sure there's plenty of video floating around from that event as well, I just haven't seen it yet.
All of the above notwithstanding, there is NO question that the demonstrators were -allowed- inside the building, by police. There's also no question that #Antifa was there breaking stuff, and being allowed to do so by police.
In the middle of that a cop did his very best to shoot Ashli Babbitt in the head at point-blank range. So, I hope you'll pardon me for questioning the official take on all this.
