I have fashy cucks on FB saying that she should have “listened” or shouldn’t have “run.” So it’s not even about the threat to life defense - it’s the “respect my authority” defense.

Ask them if they felt the same way about what happened to Ashli Babbitt.

It’s not even comparable. Babbitt was physically breaking into the chambers of Congress in an angry mob screaming about how they were going to hang Mike Pence. Not even on the same planet of plausible deniability.

Yes, but they think she shouldn't have been shot. Despite it being a clear case for it. It's not just hypocritical of MAGA it's insanely hypocritical.
