He was taken to a hospital, where he died at 9:30 p.m. Thursday, police said.

According to sources familiar with the matter, authorities believe Sicknick's death was driven by a medical condition. They're also investigating reports that he was attacked with a fire extinguisher or another item at the Capitol, sources said. So far, reports of an attack haven't been confirmed and authorities are hoping to locate video or other imagery from the scene.

Sicknick's family said in a statement, "Many details regarding Wednesday's events and the direct causes of Brian's injuries remain unknown and our family asks the public and the press to respect our wishes in not making Brian's passing a political issue."

But look at the HEADLINE:

And on the other hand, one of ours, an unarmed Trump supporter was SHOT IN COLD BLOOD.

Where TF is THAT headline?

Why hasn’t the murderer’s name been released?

Where is the outrage over this execution of an unarmed protester????

They keep putting out articles on how she was a conspiracy nut (Q, etc). As if her personal beliefs somehow takes away her right to not be murdered in cold blood.
