Ashli Babbit was more of a hero than George Floyd could ever have hoped to be.

So not only are you elevating a fucking terrorist, you also can’t come up with anything original... so basically a typical white supremacist!
ETA: also, I will say her name: Breonna Taylor. Sandra Bland. Natasha McKenna. Michelle Cusseaux. Atatiana Jefferson. Eleanor Bumpers. Alberta Spruill. Aiyana Stanley-Jones. And that’s just to name a few.
All of these women were abiding the law when they were murdered by police. Breonna Taylor was asleep at home. Atatiana Jefferson was playing video games with her nephew in her living room. Aiyana Stanley-Jones was 7 years old and asleep on her grandmother’s couch.
That asshole at the Capitol died as a terrorist trying to subvert the will of the voters and enact a coup. Fuck her.
Y'all spent months dancing on the graves of George Floyd,Tamir Rice, Philando Castile and Walter Scott because of their alleged criminal records or misdeeds ("they were no angels, they smoked weed uwu")
You and your MAGA brethren spent years picking apart the backstories of police brutality victims , looking for the tiniest bit of evidence that you can use to demonize the victim and paint them as a thug that deserves to die.
but yet you expect everyone to feel bad for someone who is essentially a domestic terrorist?
You have already said George Floyd's name. As I have just now.
I won't say hers .
...now say the following, Dumbanus Felcher: President Joe Biden.

True.
It never ceases to amaze me how they'll insist Babitt dindu nuffins.
When a white person gets in legal trouble for anything short of murder , they'll screech about how we shouldn't ruin that person's life over a mistake (especially in cases of sexual assaults *glares at the Brock Turner case*)
Meanwhile they'll demonize a black child and insist the child deserves to die for doing so much as stealing a candy bar or smoking a bit of weed.
You don’t want me to say her name, because it will be preceded by a long string of profanity & colorful adjectives. I have a fairly expansive vocabulary, so I could go on far longer than you would prefer.
Ashli Babbit's MOS in the Air Force was security.
She stood guard at gates and entry control points, armed with a weapon, having taken an oath to protect her fellow servicemembers, her nation, her Constitution.
I took that same oath. Stood similar watches at Entry Control points, with the same rules of engagement, protecting much the same principals.
But then SHE violated our oath in an attack on a Congress performing the lawful transition of power to the duly elected President chosen by the greater number of American voters.
In that attack, she broke thru barricades, police cordons, and a fucking window to charge a man with a gun, doing what she had done for eleven yesrs.
She did not die a hero. Her last act was not heroic. Her last day was in violation of our oath, our laws, and our Constitution.
I will say her name, and Ashli Babbit died a traitor.
Your "hero" was every scare chord ever worked about everyone whose grave you've ever spat on. She was a terrorist trying to destroy democracy, guilty of assaulting several law enforcement officers on her way up the steps of Capitol Hill, at the front of a murderous mob screaming their intent of political assassination, shot in self-defense after breaking and entering, and the murderous mob she was with stepped over her corpse to begin stealing anything not nailed down and breaking everything else while rifling through mail and classified documents for anything to illegally leak. All of which was an overt act of sedition.
George Floyd never tried to commit treason. Emantic Bradford Jr. never attacked police. Breonna Taylor didn't loot a government building. Philando Castille didn't smear feces across the halls where lawmakers deliberate. Trayvon Martin at no point in his life embarked on a quest of political assassination. And BLM as a collective movement sure as hell never attempted to overturn the very democratic process on a lie not once substantiated and 60 times disproven nor would they ever want to.
What they did do was die helpless in unjustifiable circumstances, unlike your "hero" and the rest of her ilk who were doing all of the above. Calling their assault a riot is downplaying the seriousness of what they tried to do. You are shocked and outraged that officers would dare lay a finger on them even though they were overrun, fearing for their lives, sent to hospital for life-threatening injuries, and in the case of Brian Sicknick who formerly served in the US Air Force died of his wounds sustained in the line of duty as he served his country.
Confused?
