Stop.

Uh uh... what did she do that deserved being killed? Was it assaulting a capital building? Not heeding officers commands? What was it you think an unarmed protester should be fired upon with live rounds? Because she was a Trump supporter? Because she is white?

The hypocrisy is astounding.

Storming a secured location in our government. They tend to take that seriously.

The police open the gates, escort them thru the halls, point where to go, BLM and antifa members leading them in MAGA gear. Nothing suspicious...

At this point we do not even know if Trump supporters were simply mixed up with an agitator crowd.

Seriously, grow up. There is plenty of footage from inside the capital, and on the grounds. And don't try to push off your intentional ignorance as some sort of superiority. If you are not aware, it is your own fault. Obviously you have internet.

You first.

Bizarre theories of false flag attacks will not help you. This was Trump supporters following the directions of a small man who was unable to admit his own failure. There is no giant conspiracy involving the vast quantities of republicans aligned with democrats aligned with antifa aligned with international observers.

Why not? People immortalize individuals in fist fights that reach for weapons. Drug dealers. Convicted felons... can't be angered that a completely innocent person was murder by being shot thru a door?

She was unarmed. They should have reasoned with her or tried to deescalate the situation.
She was brained washed by Trump. And paid a price. Trump started this mess, with his lies and brain washing. When will he be charged for her death? Like he deserve to be.

She was with BLM and antifa in that crowd... you sure she didn't just have swag on like the rest of them? Never heard of any trump supporter jumping thru windows.

Im honest enough to say I do not know. But you do you.

I know all his social media has been locked down, but has trump issued any sort of statement regarding the events of yesterday?

Yes, he did. It was in a video taped Thursday in the Rose Garden. He admits that he won't be President after Jan. 20. He doesn't take any responsibility for the riot, but he condemns the violence in clearer terms than his statement on Wednesday:

"The demonstrators who infiltrated the Capitol have defiled the seat of American democracy," he said. "To those that engage in the acts of violence and disruption, you do not represent our country. To those that broke the law, you will pay."

President Trump publicly concedes he won't serve a second term a day after inciting mob - CNNPolitics

I suspect much of the impetus for this is the fact that he realizes how much trouble he's in. Several of his staff members, including 2 Cabinet Secretaries, have resigned. His behavior has been blasted by former Cabinet members and by Presidents Bush and Obama. And I'm sure quite a few prominent Republicans are furious with him. And--at least in private--were calling for his head unless he denounces the actions of the mob.

I'm of the opinion that Donald Trump was the worst President in modern history. And will almost certainly be ranked by historians as the worst ever. His statement isn't a mea culpa. Some will say it's too little, too late. But I'll give him credit for finally taking some baby steps in the right direction.

You might want to read it or take another listen.

This is what's reported in the link. Check it yourself:

"A new administration will be inaugurated on January 20," Trump said in the video, which was taped at the White House. "My focus now turns to ensuring a smooth, orderly and seamless transition of power."

How would you interpret that language?

The question is, is Trump moving on Pence or is Pence on the team?

Well, that answers that question. Someone other than Pence... "new" admin. Not "Biden" admin.

Your brain is seriously going to break towards the end of the month. If you don’t already have a therapist, I’d advise looking for one...
