Who Gets Canonized — And Who Gets Condemned?

The Left’s disparate reactions to Renee Nicole Good versus Ashli Babbitt’s deaths.  
If the person killed is politically useful, they are canonized as a victim regardless of their actions. If the person killed is politically inconvenient, their death is justified, mocked, or ignored — no matter the circumstances. That is not a commitment to justice. It is a commitment to power.

Below: How many anti-ICE rioters cheered for the Hamas murderers of the Bibas family ?


"On Jan. 6, 2021, a Capitol Police officer named Michael Byrd fatally shot Ashli Babbitt — an unarmed, married, 36-year-old U.S. Air Force veteran — as she attempted to climb through a broken window inside the U.S. Capitol.
"Democrats and the media hailed Byrd as a hero. He was later promoted. They offered no sympathy for Babbitt. She was not treated as a victim of a tragic or excessive use of force, but as a villain whose death was justified by her politics. Her military service, her lack of a weapon, and the circumstances of her death were dismissed. She was MAGA, and therefore disposable.
"Six years later, in Minneapolis on Jan. 7, 2026, an ICE agent fatally shot Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old woman who repeatedly refused to comply with federal agents’ lawful commands. Good was using her SUV to block an ICE vehicle. The agent had his weapon drawn throughout the encounter. The fatal shooting occurred after Good hit the gas and accelerated toward the agent standing in her path.
"This time, Democrats and the media immediately declared the federal agent a criminal and Good an innocent victim.
"Both incidents were tragedies. A woman died in each.
"So why was a Capitol Police officer celebrated, and Ashli Babbitt demonized, while an ICE agent was vilified and Renee Nicole Good sanctified?
"The answer is moral relativism.
"The Left’s judgments are not based on facts, law, or consistent standards. They are based on political allegiance and the lies they tell themselves — and each other — about who deserves humanity and who does not. 
"Democrats have fully dehumanized anyone they disagree with.That reality became impossible to deny nearly four months ago, when Charlie Kirk was assassinated. Across the country, from elected officials to professors to college students, Democrats openly justified his murder. Some contextualized it. Others excused it. Many celebrated it outright.
"The response from the left hinged on one question: Was the victim one of us?" . . .

"A society that assigns human worth based on ideology does not prevent violence. It incentivizes it. And history shows exactly where that road leads. The Left’s refusal to apply one moral standard to all is not just hypocrisy.  It is dangerous. And it is getting people killed, including their own indoctrinated activists."   More...
