Al Sharpton rips the campus rioters

@no1marauder said
What was a violent mob going to do if it had reached members of Congress and their staff a short distance away?

The officer decided that was not a risk he was willing to accept and his decision was correct under the laws regarding self-defense and defense of others.

The 6th of january posters were inbred rednecks dressed up like fukking buffalos, the student protesters were spotty D&D players dressed up as Harry fukking Potter and Gandalf.

Please. Bunch of whining right-wing maggots.

Told it once, told it 100x: if you’re gonna storm the seat of government, make sure you’re gonna win. Otherwise it won’t end well.

Students occupying campus buildings… good grief. Get some fukking perspective.

Nice point shatmixer, 'if'.

It was a directionless mob, a few of them broke some windows, some others got upset when the cops started beating on them and throwing potentially lethal flash bangs around. 'if' is the stuff of No1's fairey tails

Those are a few recent examples of people b ...[text shortened]... b to reach members of Congress and their staff would have been a dereliction of duty by the officer.

LMAO! A "directionless mob" that just happened to show up at the Capitol on the same day that Congress was to certify the 2020 Presidential election results. Then they just happened to proceed in the direction of where that certification was to take place, violently attacking police who were in the way.

Like I said you are either completely delusional or a very poor purveyor of ludicrous falsehoods.

@mott-the-hoople said
which of these were facing armed police officers?

@mott-the-hoople said
its called a "sit in"

Of course, this tangent claiming we shouldn't believe our own eyes regarding the events of January 6, 2021 still isn't in response to my main point which is that no one can provide pictures of the recent campus protesters doing the "same" or even similar violent acts such as the insurrectionists did at the Capitol and thus the OP is basically BS (and that applies regardless of who says it).

@mott-the-hoople said
what was an unarmed woman climbing through a window going to do?

@no1marauder said
Wajoma is saying the "armed police officers" should have allowed the mob which Ashley Babbitt was in the lead of to reach the members of Congress and their staff.

Do you disagree?

If not, what could then have prevented the mob from attacking the people in the House Chamber and/or holding them hostage?

@mott-the-hoople said
an unarmed woman dumbass…what did they think she was gonna do?

lets replace the woman here with a black and you libs scream bloody hell.


no one wants to hear your shytweaseling

@no1marauder said
LMAO! If that was a crowd of blacks acting in the same way, you would have supported a second Sharpeville. So try not to be such a hypocrite as to attempt to play a reverse race card.

Babbitt was at the head of a violent mob, not a single tourist "ambling" around. She left the officer little choice if he was to perform his duty to protect those in the House chamber.
