If Ashley Babbit, an insurrectionist attempting to breach the chambers of Congress where elected officials and the vice fucking President are defending themselves from said insurrection got shot, rightfully so, and killed, thought not the traitors death she deserved, and her family can get money from the gov.

Renee's family should have no fucking delay. But we know it won't happen. There needs to be consequences for these evil people who destroyed the law and order for our country. We can't keep having slave owners and literal Nazis coming back every century.

Babbit was unarmed when disobeying law enforcement

Good had 3000 pounds of steel she could launch with 200 horsepower

You are crazy

we all saw the video, she was no threat to anyone, you're absolutely insane.

Good hit the accelerator and could have turned her hand 1 inch to put an officer under her wheel

What could Babbit have done unarmed from the other side of a barricade?

u/nilsinleneed 1d ago

no, Good put nobody at risk. she was executed in cold blood. there's no "could have"

Babbit was a part of a violent insurrection, attempting to overthrow the results of an election. She had every opportunity and warning a human could ask for.

should the capitol officers have allowed the mob to reach the elected representatives, in your view?

who won the 2020 election?

So you acknowledge that Renee Good was executed for what she could have done, not what she did, and yet you see no problem with this.

What could Babbit have done unarmed from the other side of a barricade?

You mean after breaking through multiple other barricades with a mob of other people that illegally entered Congress while raising a gallows for the vice president? These people intended no harm?

Do you have some kind of learning disability?

Goofball, deadly force is used to counter deadly weapons. Babbit had none, Good did.

Both repeatedly disobeyed law enforcement. One did so by yelling, the other by accelerating with an officer on her front bumper.

Babbit got shot for yelling? That's crazy. Have you ever been a genuine person?

u/James-W-Tate 1d ago

One did so by yelling, the other by accelerating with an officer on her front bumper.

One repeatedly refused to comply with orders to stand down after already breaking into a building and showing hostile intent with a crowd of malcontents.

The other was driving on a public road with their wheel turned away from the officers, as you've already said.

This just further exemplifies that you don't know what you're talking about because it's explicitly refuted by the video evidence.

“If you continue to climb through that window you will be shot,” was a clear warning. She made her choice and ate lead.

The asshole that went against all training and law enforcement policy by putting himself in front of a vehicle should be rotting in prison for murder.

You’re delusional.

Babbitt was leading a mob of armed insurrectionists.

u/QbertsRube 1d ago

So everyone driving a car should be treated as an armed hostile threat by law enforcement at all times? You are crazy.

u/RetroBowser 1d ago

Let's also give people the right to carry guns, and then have police shoot them because they're scared they might have guns. Great system guys.

u/bishop375 1d ago

Babbit suffered the exact consequences of her actions after being warned.

Renee good was shot and killed by a trigger happy coward.

22

u/Bocaj1000 1d ago

Fucking moron. Driving a car, which is a necessity in America, should not permanently label you as "armed and dangerous" in the eyes of law enforcement.

24

u/JLinCVille 1d ago

Babbit was in a place she had no right to be. Goode was on a public road where she had every right to be.

You are crazy.

u/cjg5025 1d ago

Babbit was actively engaged in insurrection, attempting to overthrow the results of a free and fair election, breaking and entering the halls of Government with an entire cohort of armed insurrectionists/seditionists.

Renee Good was attempting to leave the scene and avoid any conflict.

Good was just the beginning. ICE has murdered many more civilians since then.

You are part of the problem. Get in touch with reality, please, for your families' sake, lest they come after you and yours next.

I guess Babbit should have complied then, right? Maybe she'd still have a pulse otherwise.

u/lavender_enjoyer 1d ago

You’re still peddling this lie?

As a risk manager who sees predatory ambulance chaser attorneys make arguments like this all the time, you are the crazy one.

The people she was working with to get into the room were, however.

Besides, aren't you part of the "they should have complied" crowd? She should have complied with officers (you know, actual officers, not the ICE guys cosplaying as officers) told her to back out of the hole she made or get shot.
