The Ashli Babbitt Killing: Where's the Outrage?
By John Dietrich
There is an obvious double standard in deciding if a police officer should be charged with violating a use-of-force policy
On January 6th an unarmed 5' 2", 110 pound Caucasian female was shot by police with minimal media coverage and even less outrage. A Google search reports approximately 1,060,000 results for Ashli Babbitt and 293,000,000 for George Floyd.
Ashli Babbitt was a decorated Air force veteran and a Trump supporter.
George Floyd, despite what the media is attempting to portray him as, was a criminal. George Floyd's family received a $27 million settlement. Barbra Streisand donated an unknown number of shares of Disney stock to his daughter. Kanye West donated $2M for an education plan for her. She also received a full scholarship from Texas Southern University in honor of her father's "powerful legacy." The outrage was international, and several U. S. cities burned resulting in $2 billion in damage and 12 people murdered.
Both individuals were involved in a criminal act. Floyd was resisting arrest and his fate would have been different if he had cooperated. Babbitt was not given an opportunity to submit or resist arrest.
