    What is commonly known:

    3 people died of medical emergencies. From what I understand it was a stroke that killed each of them. Also it has not been said whether these three were actually a part of the riot or not.

    1 woman was shot by a LEO.

    The other death, Officer Sicknick, cause of death is at this point unknown. Of course he didn't actually die on Jan 6. He died Jan 7th. Police said he died of blunt force trauma to the head while his brother believes it was a stroke. Since the cops initial claim however they have essentially withdrawn their statement and have said that his death is still not determined. That they have to wait for the autopsy. (personally I'm wondering why its taking so damn long to do an autopsy...anyone else?)

    So, we can't claim whether Sicknicks death was due to the riot as of yet, we need to wait for the autopsy. Nor can we claim that those three people who definitely had a stroke as having been caused by the riot.

    So as of this moment there was only one death that was caused by the riot...and even then not by the rioters. Not 5. As the media and Democrats likes to claim. So, why is the media and Democrats putting forth the narrative that 5 people died due to the riot?

    I wonder how many Trump had hoped would die when he gleefully looked on? A few Dems? Pelosi? Pence?

    How about you address the actual topic of the thread? Or are you afraid of the answer?

    Why is the media and Democrats putting forth the narrative that 5 people died due to the riot?

    The rioters killed no one and yet they are not rioters, they are 'Terrorists'.

    As far as we know they did not kill anyone. The jury so to speak on Sicknick is still out.

    But I do get your point, which is why I /liked your post.

    So you think zero? Trump just hoped a few shirts were ruffled?

    Message conveyed by this thread: "Capital riot wasn't that bad...just a peaceful protest that got a little out of hand!"

    It's ok. I'm out.

    I'm sure someone will come along and indulge your unsubtle attempt at the dehumanisation of the tragedy.

    Two things:

    1: Where is the dehumanization? Do you even know what that word means?

    2: I used the word "riot" multiple times in my post. No where did I say "protest" or "peaceful". I have been denouncing riots for years and find them unacceptable and in no way peaceful. Including last summer. This riot was most definitely a bad thing. Hundreds were injured due to it. But you don't really hear about them. You hear about the deaths. Why? What is the point? What is the goal? Why the need to attach deaths to the riot when as far as we know only one person died as a result of the riot and that person did not die due to the rioters.

    To stir anger against Trump and his supporters. They have to have something to point to as they call Republicans "domestic terrorists". They are playing an incredibly dangerous game and they seem completely comfortable in risking the harm that could flow from such lies. I can't recall the piece where I read about Sicknick's death but a member of his family told the writer that they believe he died from a stroke.

    Yes, the mother and brother according to two news sources. The theory is that it was related to him breathing in the pepper spray.

    https://www.politifact.com/article/2021/feb/22/what-we-know-about-capitol-police-officer-brian-si/

    The claims about the fire extinguisher were from, 'unnamed sources'.

    Yeah, not really sure how much that holds water though. Sicknick was a veteran and last I knew part of basic training is to have to endure pepper spray. Also many, I don't think all, police get the same treatment. I would imagine that capitol police do at any rate.

    ~ There is no investigation open on these deaths. Very suspicious for an "insurrection"... :confuse:ยด

    I bet George Bush is glad Trump came along otherwise the D.C. rioters would have been blamed on Bush. I say blame the rioters on the rioters who broke the law. You have to admit the D.C. rioters were peaceful compared to the rioters in Baltimore.

    The capital riot was a false flag event. It was staged. Like 30 cops are under investigation. if the WWE had a riot it would look like what we saw on the 6th.

    So let me get this straight - you be mad at people who blame ALL the protestors at the Capitol instead of just the ones who were
    actually violent - and you do so by blaming ALL the protestors in Baltimore, not just the ones who were violent.

    Whatever, dude.

    Because they've been choking on their own words for the past few years defending extreme violent riots with burning and looting and this right wing inspired riot at the capital was a gift to them. they FINALLY found some instance of the right acting like a bunch of violent fools and they need to milk it for everything they can. This is the whataboutism they've needed for years and they finally got it. I hope the capital riot was just a one-off of the right acting like the left.

    I suppose Babbitt was shot in a different location but then brought to the Capitol to make it look like it happened there. Yeah...that's probably what happened. Probably same thing for Sicknick, right? He was just out for a leisurely walk with friends and collapsed. His friends decided to bring him to the Capitol to make it look like it happened there. Sounds plausible, right? Clearly same goes for Phillips, Greeson and Boyland, right?

    Maybe. The more we learn the more staged the riot looks. You be a good sheep and keep eating msm propaganda and I'll be me and be skeptical.

    The fact that you think Babbitt being shot could have been staged tells me you don't have a grasp on reality.

    You're kidding?

    I have never read an article suggesting: "due to the rioters/riots/riot", etc. That's YOUR characterization. I believe that you're aware of this and am suspicious that this thread is a ploy attempting to dismiss the severity of the seditious Capital riot.

    Perhaps I'm wrong, given your (belated) acknowledgment above. Let me then point out that it is common for the media, and indeed readers, to highlight deaths, be it as a result of small incidents up to full-scale wars. I agree that injuries and psychological damage are also a terrible affliction that is underreported. You are welcomed to share any information about how many people were injured or are considered to have suffered psychological duress in connection with the Capital riot.
