Private Hugh Montgomery was the First Man to Fire

We damn sure know every detail on every cop that shoots a minority within hours.

First unarmed black man gunned down by the law.

But, in this case, the black man was a patriot, so that doesn't count.

I don't know. I think cops should be able to use lethal force in situations like this. I think those people who guarded their property when the mob came in to their private neighborhood were right to wield guns, and would have been right to shoot somebody if they tried to get in their home. I think mobs in Portland who burn stuff should be subject to being shot. People die in those violent acts. I'd rather it be the rioter than the cops or those people there trying to stop the crime. Those capitol security guys are tasked with protecting our elected officials. If somebody gets through the barrier and is approaching them, they should use any force necessary to stop them...even lethal force. (I'm mostly bothered by the cops opening the door for them almost as if it was ok for them to go in. That may have made the girl think it was ok to go where she was. Senseless, but I don't blame the security guy. The mob has made all shootings bad these days, even though 99.999999o% are completely justified.
