1. Really

Fall from a tall building. Poisoned by some strange substance.

4. Some officers fended off the terrorists bravely

I don't know the beliefs of the one who committed suicide.. this is the first I an hearing of it.

9. I know I saw a couple cops really trying to fight these nutbags

But others, opening gates and taking selfies along with fist bumping...

I would think the suicide was a traitor, cuz the heroes were on video trying against all odds.

13. And you have no idea what category this falls under, so why post something like that?

Unless you would say it about any cop?

6. What the fuck???

Delete this shit.

[Kaleva]

14. How progressive of you! Are you sure you are in the right place?

Celebrating someone committing suicide is way over the line.

I'd advise you to self delete before many other's here see you for what you really are.

16. I will jump to no conclusions except the obvious--this is a horribly tragic death

[tymorial]

18. Thank you

Some people really need to stop and consider before rushing to comment.

5. Let us please not jump to any conclusions before we have some facts.

He could have committed suicide for more than one reason.

11. yes

7. Another cop death for trump to ignore. (nt)

[mackdaddy]

8. Tell the Truth, NOT self eliminate.

Damn it help us fix this, not just check out.

10. I saw a tweet earlier from a reporter, can't find it now,

that a lot of Capitol police officers are having mental health and morale problems after the coup and their colleagues are concerned.

[IsItJustMe]

12. I would place a very large bet on it that he was one of the bad ones and realized after the fact

the fact, he was not only going to loose his job and pension, but may very well be prosecuted for aiding and abetting the terrorist entry into the Capital. Some people do feel shame and disgrace.

15. Don't see reports. Interestingly a Howard Liebengood who died in 2005 was Senate Sergeant at Arms,

at one point. Senate SaA -- along with the House SaA -- oversees the Capitol Police.

17. Jesus Christ. (Not directed at OP) Some of you are shameful

You have no idea why this officer committed suicide. Back the hell up and wait for more information. Some of you ought to self delete yourselves quite frankly.

[BlueStater]

19. Yes, I agree.

Brian Sicknick’s death can definitely be laid at the feet of Trump and his vile supporters, but there’s no evidence that this guy committed suicide because of the riot.
