All the posts and statements going on with lines like "this woman is dead b/c if trump" or describing the incident as tragic are wild.

Maybe someone here can talk me off this point.

I get that a family lost a loved one but I just don't care?

Why should I feel sympathy for a QAnon freak who would kill me?

    Cool, I didn't catch that part of the news when I broke, and I'm aware of the deputization side of alphabet agencies. Reminding me about the FBI throwing up their hands and saying they had no idea etc has given me pause. Thanks for your response!

      Persuasive counterpoint(s): an agent provocateur wouldn't be at the front of the line like that putting themselves in harms way, and the Air Force officer corps is full of end-times evangelicals who would be prime candidates for Q-pilling.

      idk which is worse tbh

        That's the 1 thing about it that made me scratch my head, I saw a different angle of it and the secret service people were plainly pointing guns at the door and yelling at people, climbing in like that flies in the face of basic military training no? But she was also in the Air Force, idk, and also just because she was trained doesn't mean she'll always make the right call

            I thought it was pretty see through, and where she climbed through the glass was broken through, definitely enough for her to read the situation

          Some people are willing to die for their convictions. Americans seem to have a really hard time understanding this lately, but there are (many) people in the world who are not dissuaded from pursuing their ideological goals even with death staring them in the face.
