Oh for fuck's sake. Of course Officer Sicknick was killed by the January 6th Trumpist mob.

[Tommy Carcetti]

No, a physically fit 42 year old Capitol police officer did not coincidentally suffer a stroke completely out of the blue right after he was in the thick of everything on January 6th.

And no, he wasn't surrounded by peaceful guys that day who were playing guitars and hackey sack and singing Kumbaya that day. He was surrounded by guys with sticks and clubs and bear spray and zip ties who were displaying nooses and shouting about how they wanted to kidnap and/or kill the Vice President and Speaker of the House, and who were all too willing to crush Sicknick's fellow officers to death if they had the chance.

How fucking obtuse are these people, and how stupid do they think we are?

Jesus shit.

1. They just want it in print so that years from now, there will be doubt about such things.

[BlueStater]

2. They still attacked him. He was pepper sprayed. His own brother confirmed it.

Not to mention the dozens of other police officers who were attacked by those violent traitors.

They were beaten, suffered concussions, lost eyes, fingers, etc. And the beatings are on video, so they can’t deny it either. It’s a miracle more didn’t die at the hands of these deranged lunatics.

There’s no excusing what this scum did, as hard as they’re trying to do so.

[malaise]

4. Bear spray as well n/t

[SergeStorms]

6. Black Flag Wasp and Hornet spray too.

And that is some nasty stuff! Rotten bastards.

[malaise]

7. Lock them up!

RFN!

[SergeStorms]

17. And they brought that stuff with them...

not as protection if they were attacked, they brought them to attack anyone who got in their way while they ransacked the Capitol Building. That shows premeditation.

[malaise]

18. 100% correct

Lock them up!

[MyOwnPeace]

25. HELLO!!!!!!! PREMEDITATION!!!!!!! INTENTION!!!!!!!!!

What part is so confusing to you?????????

[LiberalArkie]

3. They just want it in print so that years from now, there will be doubt about such things.

5. This is a RW talking point. Tucker highlighted it a few weeks ago.

The seize on the same ambiguity that they used to definitely know that Hillary killed all those people.

[Jetheels]

8. Not sure which story your referencing but here's one, Glenn Greenwald

saying no one died at the Capitol. He seems to be a Fox News regular now.

[Tommy Carcetti]

10. God bless Glenn Greenwald. nt

[SidDithers]

16. Remember how vociferously some DUers defended Greenwald back in the day...

I'm sorry they're no longer here to be laughed at.

[Tommy Carcetti]

24. Probably the same folks who pushed Tim Canova's congressional campaign. nt

[obamanut2012]

33. oh god, i forgot all that

[Hekate]

32. I will never forget them...

Among the things I won’t forget is being accused of homophobic slurs for abbreviating his name in post titles. Long names get abbreviated — duh.

So wherever they’ve gone, I hope they stay there and have a happy life. Or something.

Actually, there do seem to be some particularly contentious and thin-skinned newbs of late, plus one person who reminds me so much of someone whose name I can’t remember. So maybe some have come “home.”

[Duppers]

22. He also tweeted this flaming lie today...

Link to tweet

What an alt reality!!

[bdamomma]

9. There was a story

I read that Officer Sicknick called his brother after the insurrection and he said was okay.

The next day they found him dead possibly from the bear spray he inhaled.

[Tommy Carcetti]

13. Any number of things could have slowly taken deadly effect.

If he was hit on the head, it wouldn't require immediate head trauma. Let's not forget the actress Natasha Richardson, who hit her head while skiing, went back to her hotel room with nothing more than a mild headache, and died the next day because of internal bleeding.

[bdamomma]

14. I think

Officer Sicknick stroked out, but there could be other factors for his unwanted death.

[Blue_true]

35. The officer was taken to the hospital from the Capitol.

He was in critical condition. He died in the hospital something like 2 days after the riot.

11. This is all just playing to the Trump base.

No reasonable, sane, intelligent person believes this.
But then Trump's base doesn't contain a lot of people who fall into that category.
It's just like the idiotic claims that the insurrection was an Antifa false flag operation.

Your post says it all, patphil.

[Lonestarblue]

12. Was no autopsy done to determine the cause of Officer Sicknick's death?

And, if not, why not? That would seem to be pretty important in this case.

[KS Toronado]

19. Never heard of an autopsy being done and he was cremated rather quickly.

Read it's believed he was a Qrump fan/follower, so did the family want to hid from public view that
Qrumpers were responsible? Always more questions than answers.

[TwilightZone]

29. One was done. It just hasn't been released.

https://www.phillyvoice.com/nj-capitol-police-officer-death-fbi-suspect-sprayed-chemical/

I suspect it has something to do with the investigation, which is obviously ongoing.

[KS Toronado]

30. Thanks, learned something today.

15. "Nowadays it's getting so you can't attack people anymore without being accused

of killing them if they suddenly die. Y'know, if a mob attacks somebody, and the person dies of a heart attack or stroke, it's the person's own fault: they shouldn't have been so over-excitable. It's like when you stab a hemophiliac, who then bleeds to death: the person should have been more careful"

[Ohioboy]

20. Ever since the head insurrectionist wasn't convicted in his 2nd impeachment...

His supporters have been trying to rewrite the history of Jan 6th.

[calimary]

21. They think everybody's stupid because that's the reality that drives

their supporters.

[MyOwnPeace]

26. Or, to put it another way......

"They think everybody's stupid because THEY are."

[Evolve Dammit]

27. Fuck these traitors. Lock them all up that conducted violent acts.

[robertpaulsen]

31. The people saying he wasn't are the same people saying Derek Chauvin didn't kill George Floyd.

Fuck those people.

And fuck any media outlet that gives those people a platform.

[dsc]

34. One reason we have been hearing conspiracy theories is that we still haven't had

any type of official briefing on this death. This is honestly bizarre. I am certainly not saying this conspiracy is correct but I do think we should have had a briefing long before now. We still don't know anything about how he died or who killed him. It has been almost 2 months.
