I happened to have recently bought a police trade-in Glock. I'm returning it. I'm disgusted. I've had enough. We're back to carrying the Sig.

There is no reasonable justification for the police to execute an unarmed protestor simply for trespassing in a political building.
I suspect that you (like many others) have just become normalized to such police brutality, to think this is acceptable.
We need to be clear, she was shot while trying to force her way through a barricaded door when law enforcement was trying to safely get elected officials and other innocent people out of harm's way, and she was only shot after multiple warnings.
I fully agree that the terrorists shouldn't have been allowed into the building, but it happened, and given that, if this isn't a textbook example of a situation where law enforcement was justified in using lethal force, I'm not sure what is.
