You're right, I concede the "what ifs" comparisons are stupid because BLM/antifa would never be stupid enough to try to storm the Capitol while Congress was in session.

Take a look at the video when she was shot. Do you think she is there to “overthrow the government?” She doesn’t look dressed for it.

Now the hypothetical goes the other way, if she was black protesting/rioting for BLM, doing the same exact thing, fell the same exact way...I wonder what you and other would be saying...

I don't think she was, and I don't think she deserved to die. Don't know how it happened either so I'll reserve judgement until the story comes out. I think we can all agree her death was unnecessary. But I don't feel any sympathy for her either, do you believe anybody who stormed the Capitol today wasn't aware of the risks of doing so? Quite frankly they are lucky LE didn't point rifles at them.
