Also, no outrage in the MSM about police shooting and killing an unarmed female protester. This summer I was told that this was a very bad thing indeed.

I guess the situation here is different than what happened in Minneapolis because...well...its different.

The circumstances were completely different. I feel quite bad for the lady that died yesterday, but she put herself in a dangerous situation. That pig shouldn't have shot her in the neck.

Thanks for at least being consistent. I see way too many people criticize the police then immediately back the police shooting an unarmed woman.

Either shooting unarmed people is wrong or it’s not. It shouldnt be dependent on whether they’re on your side or not.

If you want to make the argument it was an unjustified shooting, go ahead.

I'll be ready to link some videos that say otherwise.

Unless you have video of this woman posing a lethal threat to another human, it won’t be very convincing.

Armed security officers were defending congressmen in a secure area, she tried climbing through a broken side window and they killed her.

This is nothing but a play stupid games win stupid prizes situation.

An unarmed woman was climbing through a window and you feel lethal force was warranted?

A potentially armed woman was leading a mob through a window.

Everybody is "potentially armed".
