I know Trump's words were part of her motivation because SHE SAID SO HER DAMN SELF!!  Have you not followed this story? There are a half dozen videos of her ranting on FB about the big steal and parroting Trump's own words. 

The endangerment you are attempting to gloss over wasn't from her specifically but from the [BLEEP] mob of hundreds of people lined up behind her. She was just the first one to attempt to cross a line of defense manned by armed officers not being ordered to surrender their posts. 

And let's not try to gloss over the danger of that mob. It did IN FACT contain armed members of militia groups who were planning coordinated efforts to harm and/or detain elected officials. This information is readily available, people.

David Berkowitz claimed to be following, not just the motivational words, but the specific orders of his neighbor's dog.  Is Trump as complicit as the dog was?

If the danger wasn't from the woman specifically (as you admit) why was she shot?  Do you support the use of deadly force on a non-threatening individual, based on a potential threat posed by others?

Without addressing the factual accuracy of the allegations of planned harm/detainment, that information, while readily available now, was not known at the time of the shooting.

Yes. I do. If you storm the capital, you deserve to get shot. The police could've opened fire on the whole lot of them and I would've found it justifiable. The police were trying to do their jobs, while these deranged maniacs were slamming the cops heads in doors and hitting them with fire extinguishers. Personally, I thought they showed great restraint. They could've just fired at will on the criminals, but they didn't. Those insurrectionists got off easy.
