Video Shows MAGA Rioter Throwing Fire Extinguisher At Capitol Police, Striking One In The Head

Good thing they caught this guy.
At least 14 Police officers assaulted and 1 killed. I thought the MAGA morons “Back the Blue”?
Send them all to Guantanamo Bay. Have the guards wear “Camp Gitmo” hoodies with “Staff” on the back.
Back the Blue is just a slogan for "keep those uppity people in line". If "The Blue" is acting against the MAGA, then they should be beaten with weapons because they are traitors.
This has been clear for a long time.
The FBI said they have over 100,000 film clips...they say they are gonna arrest hundreds.
It certainly doesn't look like anyone was seriously injured in this specific clip. Is the OP advancing the theory that this particular protester's "weapon of choice" was a fire extinguisher, so he must have found another one to wield against the officer who died? If there are 100,000 film clips, surely one of them captures the altercation involving the deceased officer. It doesn't appear that such a video has been released to the public, if it exists.
He was just another tourist finding a fire extinguisher on the floor and trying to put it back on its place.
So assaulting police with a weapon is okay in your books, as long as,

Protester? You mean violent rioter that assaulted police with a weapon. How do you know this wasn’t the fatal blow caught on camera? Now you’re an expert on the extent of damage a fire extinguisher can cause when thrown at someone’s head, I see.
Are you afraid that you may be caught somewhere you weren’t supposed to be, doing something you weren’t supposed to be doing?
MAGA morons:
Nov. 4 - Jan. 4: “The election was stolen! We need to fight!”
Jan. 5: “We will storm the Capitol!”
Jan. 6: “We stopped the EC vote count! Victory!”
Jan. 7 - present day: “It was all Antifa/BLM mixed in with crisis actors!”
Watching the fire extinguisher attack video again, it appears that the fire extinguisher hit the initial officer, who was wearing a helmet, but bounced off and hit another officer, who was not wearing a helmet, in the head.
This is your one chance to convince me to take you seriously.
Why did you post the video? Was it to suggest that the protester shown in the video is the same person who also had an altercation with the officer who died?
I'm prepared to bet that striking a cop wearing a riot helmet with a fire extinguisher that was light enough to casually toss underhand about 10 feet did not lead to that officer having a subsequent stoke, and certainly doesn't match the narrative of "beating cop in the head with a fire extinguisher".
So, again, what was the point you were trying to make?
Where was it reported that he was “beaten” with the fire extinguisher? All the reports state he was hit on the head with it, not “beaten“. Where was it reported that he had a stroke? All the reports state that the officer collapsed after returning to his field office, not that he had a “stroke”. Reminds me of how that one poster kept saying Heather Heyer died of a heart attack and not because a white supremacist drove his car into her.
So tell me, how are you so sure that this wasn’t the fatal blow, are you a forensic investigator with deep insight into the types of injuries sustained when heavy objects are thrown at people’s heads?
Why would I have to explain myself to you, as to why I posted the video? Why do you post the nonsense you are known for? Why would I care if you take me seriously? Nobody on this site takes you seriously, that’s for sure.

Real time video of the fire extinguisher attack with audio. And no, it was not an underhand throw.
Here's a sampling of reporting that that he suffered a stroke that resulted from being struck by a fire extinguisher:

I have seen no confirmation that the footage you posted is of this incident. Have you?
The early reporting on the incident is that he was "struck in the head while physically engaged with protesters". Was that supposed to mean a projectile hit him, but he wasn't struck by the protesters he was engaged with? If it was, it was a pretty strange way of saying it. Just read the multiple posts here on TERB that used the phrase "beaten to death". If this is the footage, I wonder how "officer struck by extinguisher thrown in his general direction that carrommed off another officer" would have played as a narrative compared to the narrative of a direct violent clash?
Be that as it may, since you don't care if I take you seriously, that neatly wraps up the issue from my perspective.
