Are you kidding? The right will make him a martyr.
They made Babbit a matyr, and she rushed Capitol police during a violet mob attack on Congress, through a barricade, while cops shouted for her to stop. The cop that killed her fired a single, controlled shot. He was not firing wildly or with malice. She was ex military, and should have realized what guns drawn and warnings about deadly force meant. Bystanders next to her admitted to hearing the police warning her as she breached the barricades, but she did it anyway.
Her mother just got a 5 million dollar settlement from the government and she got a full military burial with honors.
They don't need an actual reason for a martyr. They will invent reasons after the fact regardless of what happens.
IF we ever regain control, we should forcibly take back the money, and dump her body on their front lawn.
Those aren't exclusionary, they'll make both martyrs.
