  2. Imagine paying $5M to the families of the 9/11 hijackers. This is basically that, but she’s white and sucked at attacking the US.

  4. Imagine someone trying to break into your house, you shoot them in self defense, and then are required to pay for them. 

    Now imagine you’re a 2A stan and are okay with the above. 

  5. Department of Government Efficiency is such a sad joke. She got what she deserved, there is NO way this can be morally or ethically acceptable.

  6. These people all got pardoned by Trump – which is already a miscarriage of justice. What will Trump award **Brian Sicknick** ? And **four officers** who responded to the attack [who] **died by suicide** within seven months.

    Trump immediately pardoned criminal insurrectionists – no matter how violent. Did he forget COPS died on account of his “peaceful MAGA tourists”?

    We urgently need to GET RID of this DESPICABLE FELON.

  7. Why isn’t every pardon considered aid and comfort to insurrection?

  8. From [United States Capitol Police website](https://www.uscp.gov/media-center/press-releases/uscp-completes-internal-investigation-january-6-officer-involved)

    > USCP’s Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) determined the officer’s conduct was lawful and within Department policy,

    Also:

    > he actions of the officer in this case potentially saved Members and staff from serious injury and possible death from a large crowd of rioters who forced their way into the U.S. Capitol and to the House Chamber where Members and staff were steps away.

    Why the fuck are we paying a single cent to the family of a traitor?

  9. In my opinion I think this is to specifically send a message to his followers that if they commit violence towards those designated as others or liberals then they will be pardoned and paid!

  10. Since there was no merit to this case, Trump is corruptly using his power to pay his followers to break the law.

  11. Trump is a traitor, who at the earliest opportunity rewarded those who aligned with him against our democracy and trashed our Capitol and injured our Capitol Police and other Law Enforcement personnel. Babbitt was an unhinged QAnon paranoid conspiracy believer who broke into our Capitol and abused the premises. Rewarding her family for that is obscene. Trump and all the MAGA GOP are obscene and complicit in the damage they did and are doing to our democracy and our federal government. It will never be acceptable.

  12. Paying the family of terrorist self-martyrs is what al Qaeda did so it was easier to recruit them.

  13. So if I commit treason for trump my family is taken care of for two generations? Hrm…

  14. this bitch’s survivors and other one who got hundreds of thousands for calling a kid a n****r are making me think i work too hard.

  15. For what? This psychos family gets rewarded for her breaking the fucking law??

    When will this insanity stop!!!!

  16. I’d rather not pay traitor Ashli Babbitt’s family money from our tax dollars. Gross.

  17. Can we deduct it from our taxes? I do not consent to my taxes going to terrorists.

  18. She was of more value to her family dead, than she ever was when she lived.

    Which says all you need to know about that Traitor.

  19. The same people who said Tamir Rice got what he deserved. A literal child who didn’t even have his toy gun in his hand, who was gun down by a cop 1 second after jumping
    out of a moving car. 

    Thinks a woman who was breaking through a window, warned multiple times to stop, and continue and then was shot to stop her.

    Thinks her killing was wromg. 

  22. This settlement better be investigated when the Trumpers are out of power. Seems to me it was more about the right wing lawyers getting their beaks wet than the family.

    Would love a conservative to defend this BS as hundreds of people are actually unlawfully killed by police each year. If a person was smashing glass, and crawling through a homeowners window at the front of a mob, would that homeowner not have a right to shoot?

  24. This is such a huge slap in the face to every American. Disgusting.

  25. Tax dollars shouldnt go to domestic terrorists.
