I can't believe there are still people trying to defend those filthy traitors. The question isn't why that person was shot, the question is why weren't hundreds of people shot.
That piece of crap Trump was going to send federal troops into my town to protect a Target store but he let our nation's capital fall to a bunch of freaks. Their own lawyer calls them short bus retards.
BTW if you have any doubts about how mentally deficient these rioters were, some of them actually believed that Trump was going to get them out of jail. Trump has screwed everyone who ever supported him, anyone who invested in him lost their money. And he doesn't give a crap.
If Trump hadn't run every military hero of integrity out of that Administration, we would have had Jeff Sessions, Lieutenant General McMaster and mad dog Mattis walking to the halls of that building with their sidearms chasing those people out like the animals that they were.
