On what grounds did Ashli Babbitt’s family deserve a 5 million settlement?
Glad to see the capital police Chief speak out against it.

That $5M should come directly out of DJT's pocket...his lie and scheme to overturn the
2020 election is the reason Ms. Babbitt ended up in harm's way.
Because she is the first MAGA martyr they handed our money to the family. A disgrace. A member of a
rioting mob hunting down members of Congress who were evacuating. She got what she had coming.
She’s white. Different rules for white insurrectionists.
Imagine a group of Latinos or Blacks or Muslims storming the US Capitol while Congress was certifying the electoral vote in favor of a Republican.
My guess is Josh Hawley would not be pumping his fist. My guess is that the family of any perpetrators shot to death with justification would not be getting a $5 million.
So now the legal system cannot be trusted? Make up your mind.

St. Ashli of MAGA.

Were there any insurrectionists who were not white?
I don’t think so. The insurrection leaders should be in court for discriminating against minorities.
A handful. But January 6th was clearly based upon white America’s fear that they are losing power.
Trump knew this. Hence, it was easy to sell election fraud to his base.
Wasn't Joe Biden white?

Yes. He embraced diversity as America’s strength. The insurrectionists do not.

So due process and the legal system is racist? Why are you a part of it?

Irrelevant question as to Babbitt.
The legal question was whether deadly force was justified. The law enforcement officer was cleared. Not a close call. See January 6th video. As 94 has aptly posted, Capitol Police exercised remarkable restraint.
Generally, our legal system is historically racist. Well documented re sentencing disparity and traffic stop disparity. But, I am glad to see it has substantially improved over my 35 year career.
Not irrelevant at all. Her family was given due process. Respect the decision. Respect the Court.

Ask a question then cry when you don't get the answer you want.
The court didn't award her settlement, Trump DOJ did.

I don't know. Same as Floyd and others?

Really!? You MAGAmorons struggle with reality. Cop strangles Floyd to death
(murder) after detaining him for purchasing something using a counterfeit $20 (he likely had no idea it was counterfeit) - note actually murdered him where as Babbitt was shot while working with a mob of insurrectionists after breaking into the Capitol building in the act of trying to “hang” the US Vice President or kill anyone in the US Congress in order to stop the process of certifying a Presidential election.
One was murdered by ruthless beat cops and the other was shot in defense of the US Congress and the US Vice President.
You and your cult are a bunch of MAGAfuckwads.
I love this retort...how do the scenarios compare?
(no message)
Both unarmed and both killed by authorities. This isn't rocket science.
Personally, I don't think either one deserves a payout, but Democrats set the precedent.
Except one was proned on the ground with a cop kneeling on his neck. The other was leading a mob
hunting down members of Congress being evacuated from the Capitol due to a riot that she was participating in. Otherwise, exactly the same.
You're being disingenuous in your simplistic explanation.
