Immediate threat? Show a Congressman in that room or admit you’re a liar. Seems every other cop right there saw no threat.Details matter. The fact that you don't like these details demonstrates that your argument doesn't stand to scrutiny.Cops have been ordered to stand down, but NONE of those cops were defending members of Congress, you goof. Cops defending our elected officials don't get to stand down. The cops at the perimeter were told not to be too heavy handed, which is how the protestors got to break and enter to their heart's content.Cops have been ordered to stand down. THey have been letting left leaning rioters break and enter to their hearts content. Even when it was federal buildings.
IF those rioters had been shot, based on teh standard of "not listening to a cop tell you to stay out", thousands of good lefties would be dead, and you people would be having the biggest hissy fit of all time.
I'm still waiting for the leftist mob that was storming a federal building (or any building) threatening to kill the elected official inside. Thing is, that just DIDN'T HAPPEN.
The standard isn't "not listening to a cop tell you to stay out" because if that were the case, it would have been hundreds of protestors at the Capitol shot. The standard is that when a violent mob gets to the last line of defense before elected officials, someone is likely to get shot.
Every time you make complicated and detailed standards for the example you would be prepared to accept,
you are demonstrating that my point about the general NORM of how we have been treating rioters, is true.
The facts is that defending a member of Congress is a little different than defending a building.
I'm still waiting for you to provide a reasonable comparison. No one was shot because they broke into the Capitol. Someone was shot because they were presenting an immediate to Congress.
