The False and Exaggerated Claims Still Being Spread About the Capitol Riot

[Grand Mal]

I witnessed cops moving the barricades aside and motioning people forward. The "outnumbered cop" wasn't being pursued...he was leading them.

And I witnessed one fatality...a woman murdered by a cop.

(Just to be clear, I saw all this in a video recorded and presented on YouTube by Antifa.)

No you didn't witness a woman being murdered by a cop. You saw a cop defending the legislators from a violent mob when the mob broke into the room they were refuged in.

That's because she didn't break in.

She was breaking through a barricade at the moment she was shot.

It's odd to see right wing folks who you might find justifying putting a boot on a guys neck for 8 minuets while he suffocates for passing counterfeit bills might also say it's murder to take one shot at someone breaching a barricade in the middle of a riot inside the capitol building to protect lawmakers from a mob intent breaking down that barricade.

Deadly force was required? Were they afraid of an unarmed woman?

No way to say she is unarmed, or much other way to get that mob to back off given how they were repeatedly warned.

Any sane individual understands that if you keep breaking down barriers between you and lawmakers by force in the capitol, someone is going to start shooting at you.

I’m not in denial of anything.

My post was accurate in describing what Greenwald and OP were attempting to do. Fact.

You don't understand, Rate. What you've seen with your own eyes is not reality. /s Reality is the fiction that Schism, who will not condemn the insurrection without whataboutisms, demands that you accept.

 

[RaleBulgarian]

Greenwald didn't attempt, he successfully debunked the media narrative.

Fact.

Greenwald didn’t debunk squat. He correctly noted errors made by the MSM immediately following the events of January 6th.

He then went on, at great length, attempting to obfuscate the significance of the event, which was clearly his central focus.

For some, reality is too painful to accept.

 

[Utility Man]

So no video of her breaking in?

She sure owned the libs there, aye.

 

[Phys251]

For some, reality is too painful to accept.

They look at those images, those videos, and say, "it's just a garden-variety riot."

As if the worst attack on US soil since 9/11 was just a "garden-variety" attack. Makes you wonder if those people are rooting for more.

 

[trouble13]

I heard one screaming in pain. Saw film of others retreating. Apparently a cop did die as a result of the incident.

That remains undetermined. They still refuse to release the autopsy findings.

No you didn't witness a woman being murdered by a cop. You saw a cop defending the legislators from a violent mob when the mob broke into the room they were refuged in.

There were no legislators there. They had already left.

The cop killed the woman even though there were police right behind her. Hell, the cop COULD have killed other cops.

He had no reason to shoot her. She was climbing through a window that Antifa had broken. They could have let her get through and then arrested her.

Instead, that cop murdered her.

It's interesting to see left-wing folks who think it's murder when a police officer shoots a man who's trying to steal his gun then since it's perfectly justified when they shoot an unarmed woman wearing a mega hat.

Got the moment she was shot the moment she was breaking in.

Factual proof please .. oh wait like usual you have none because your post are among the most dishonest here LMAO

but if that reality changes please let us know and provide facts, thanks!

Who said it's perfectly justified to shoot an unarmed woman wearing a mega hat?

 

[iguanaman]

Did you witness any cops being murdered? That's right, you didn't.

We all witnessed violence toward the Capitol police from beating them with their own batons to "Bear spray" being shot in their faces. If you think that is a hoax you are mistaken.

 

[iguanaman]

Who said it's perfectly justified to shoot an unarmed woman wearing a mega hat?

She saw the gun and kept coming regardless. That behavior towards a police officer is always deadly. I am shocked that more of them did not get shot, they were certainly asking for it.

 

[Ikari]

Well hopefully most, if not all, those seditious assholes are rounded up and appropriately charged.

 

[Torus34]

There are echoes here of the Beer Hall Putsch. It differs in that the person in whose name the riot/occupation occurred was not present this time.

Regards, stay safe 'n warm.

"The shooting occurred as thousands of rioters forced their way into the House chamber, where members of Congress were hiding, according to Steven A. Sund, chief of the Capitol Police."

"As protesters were forcing their way toward the House Chamber where Members of Congress were sheltering in place, a sworn USCP employee discharged their service weapon, striking an adult female," the United States Capitol Police wrote in a statement on Thursday."

ANTIFA? Are you ****ing seriously trying to make that bullshit edible?

 

[Schism]

I'm glad to see all of you opposing riots and attacking police.

We're in agreement; charge them with whatever crimes they committed.

However, the media's Insurrection Narrative has been debunked.

Agreed 100%, its amazing more of these nutjob terrorist didn't get themselves killed . . she was moron terrorist that got her dumbass self killed based on conspiracy theories and sense of privledge

 

[AGENT J]

++ Why would they leave? Didn't they have pressing business connected to Biden's election? And why did they need escorts to abandon their workplace? True, the newly elected ones might not know their way around the Capitol, but they could have asked others.

The cop killed the woman even though there were police right behind her. Hell, the cop COULD have killed other cops.
He had no reason to shoot her. She was climbing through a window that Antifa had broken. They could have let her get through and then arrested her.

++ Has he been indicted yet?

He won't be.

He'll get away with murder.
