Something stinks about all this (obviously, right?). I mean, generally the standing order for the capital police IS to shoot on sight when a person poses a threat. Except on this day they supposedly go a stand down order. Essentially, people were allowed to enter the capitol and even escorted inside. Ashli was part of a particularly rowdy group that was hitting that barricaded doorway. There were police and swat right there with that group. The police stood down as if told to so people can bang on the doors. Ashli attempted to jump through the window of that door way and that secret service dude on his own shot her. The conditions for the usual order seemed to have vanished.
There was no expectation that proceeding would result in them now using deadly force. There was no warning except for the secret service agent pointing the gun in the corner and tourists shouting "There's a gun!" The way it all played out just seemed so eerie. People just milling about. No one reacting to the gun shot. Ashli just laying on the ground and people, even police, acting very strangely. Something just doesn't add up and it makes no sense why this secret service agent wouldn't at least be mentioned as the shooter in an attempt to exonerate him. More like "Let's hope we can delay this until they stop caring".
Your first paragraph is alright.
And you're right that they never really gave a warning indicating lethal force would be used.
It was so loud that Ashli didn't even h
ear the gun warning from John Sullivan.
The only video you can hear it on was
the one he was filming.
The Banned.video Sam Montoya
filmed you could not hear it.
Watch the Banned.video again.
Everyone reacted to the gunshot.
Guy wearing the most red gear
instinctively covered his ears.
People dropped to the ground.
There was a stampede back out
of the hallway.
