It would have been justified if more than that one person had been shot. The Capitol Police had every right, nay their duty, to defend themselves and the sanctity of the democratic process. If they weren't armed with tear gas but had guns, they should have used them - first as a warning and then to kill. It's called self-defense and doing their jobs.

If an angry mob breached the White House grounds and headed toward the WH when the Pres. was there, they'd surely be tear gassed and, if necessary, mowed down.
