Capitol Officer that Killed Protestor, Was the Same One That Left his Glock 22 Unattended in 2019 in Capitol Restroom

How do you like them apples? Frankly they should have taken his service pistol away permanently in 2019.

Lt. Michael Byrd is the officer that shot Ashli Babbitt during the Jan 6 protest. He also thinks he is a victim. o_O


His other claim to fame was in February 2019 when a Glock 22 was found unattended in the Capitol's visitor restroom, and it was him that negligently left it behind.


If you ask me, this man is someone who is reckless with his service pistol.

Officers leaving their firearm in a bathroom has, unfortunately, happened before. There but for the grace of God go many of us. A comment or two on that shooting situation if I may; From what I can see, the Capitol Police function more as security guards than as actual police officers. They are used to directing compliant tourists in and around terrain officers are intimately familiar with, assisting the political elite, manning metal detectors, issuing directions to visitors to stay inside the velvet ropes, to stand here, stop there, extend your arms, etc. etc. Street cops are used to going into unfamiliar terrain every day, with people often challenging them. I sincerely doubt Capitol Police authority is often challenged by the compliant tourists they wrangle. I continue to believe that Capitol Police officer that shot the unarmed woman, simply panicked.

FWIW, until the NBC news report yesterday evening, I did not know the ethnicity of the officer involved. But I knew that in any case, the investigation into the shooting would determine it was a "good shooting", i.e., that the shooting of the unarmed woman was justified. Would the shooting investigation have have come to the same conclusion if the ethnicity of the woman and officer were reversed?

It was Murder, and nothing less than that. She was not a threat to anyone or anything, and did far less than many others who went into the building. By his logic, they should have all been killed.

If I have any expectation or hope of the government to respect the Constitution and leave our 2nd amendment rights alone I should have the courtesy to respect the institutions of my country.

Every person at the Capitol on Jan 6th is my enemy and should be your enemy. Nobody has taken my guns. No government official has ever asked me to surrender a firearm. Those people attacked my rights by attacking my country. I would have loved to see a Tienamen Square sequel. Roll every one of them over with tanks. Use my flag as a weapon? Peel that person’s skin off alive. Once a person attacks my freedom that person should have no protection under the law for them or their families. If it means 10 million traitors in a pit covered with lime so be it. The kids and wives? Fertilizer. Because that’s what life is like for many people in the world without a Constitution or LE that only want a bribe. The only right that person has is to die. If Jan 6th is your porn I’ll pay for the ticket to Pyongyang.

No, they didn't. They went to DC to protest a stolen election. Nobody attacked Democracy - in fact, out of that huge crowd you would probably find 90% who would lay down their life for America. A small number took it to another level when they actually entered the Capital and let it go to their heads when they got in, but they really didn't do anything. This cop or whatever he was committed murder and is getting away with it. BTW, I remember seeing video posted that day of security guards actually letting protesters into the building. This is important because I don't think they actually 'broke into' the capital - those doors are pretty stout. There was some glass breakage and when the lady was shot it seems that she got pushed into a window, either breaking it or it was already shattered - that's when she was shot.
There was no 'insurrection', President Trump did not suggest that anybody do anything other than protest, and the whole story is nothing but Phase II of 'the big lie', with Phase I being 'the election was not stolen'.

Or I’m from Montana. A state that knows how to handle firearms and has sent more soldiers to war per capita than any other state. We value freedom. We treat each other with respect and we don’t need to go through a metal detector or security to go in our state capital.All those bull**** groups are on the Western edge of the state because Montana Republicans are patriots. If you’re not Montanan you’ve never tasted freedom in the lower 48 in your life.

Spin it how you want. To me you are the Blm race baiting anti-American bull****ters. Stolen election. I’m not a Biden guy but Trump is senile and if you objectively watch the first 2 years compared to his last 2 years you would see that. Live in fantasy land for all I care. I’m in Montana where I can carry with no permit and no magazine restrictions. Sorry that you live in some welfare state where your state government only allows rubber band guns. I don’t have to cry about an election that happened 9 months ago. I don’t care. Sorry you don’t live in my great state. The only state worth a **** in the US except Texas. If you are against my country and think sending high school dropouts to trash America is acceptable…..well, shotguns are 99.9% effective at solving all your problems.

Can you say that to the face of those parents who lost sons yesterday in Afghanistan, totally, and without doubt due to the incompetency of the Thief-in Chief who occupies the White House because of the STOLEN ELECTION? TRUMP won, and now all true Americans should stand up and be counted, and DEMAND that Slow Joe, and The Ho', and the Wicked Witch from the West, flee for their lives, and may God have mercy on their souls!

Yes, he is no one who has any interest in this site beyond Trolling, and will quickly move-on. Sad that people like him have such issues that they have nothing better to do than bother others.

I imagine all those screaming for this guy's head on a pole would be singing a different tune if say Trump had won and Democrat whackos pulled the same stupid stunt at the Capitol.

Moral of the story: don't be around when idiots do stupid things. The group who stormed the Capitol were mainly extreme alt right nutjobs who only damage the Conservative cause and alienate Moderates whose votes we need to take back the House in 2022.

Dude, tell me how this fake cop who murdered this woman met any standard regarding use of deadly force. If it was a white cop who shot a black woman under the same circumstances, people like you would be demanding the death penalty.
