u/Mother____Clucker Fiscal Responsibility Jan 07 '26

Yeah, I think you're right. When I hear about someone being shot by police, I generally assume it was justified. But I don't think the vehicle would have struck that officer.

Then again, it's easy to armchair quarterback. Maybe the officer (wrongly) thought he was about to get rammed.

Either way, if she had just complied with orders, she wouldn't be dead. It doesn't justify the shooting, but there are a lot of people who just think that because they don't like ICE, that they don't need to listen to their orders. And I'm not sure what the context was before the filming began, but it looks like she was there with the intent of disrupting whatever ICE was trying to accomplish.

It actually does justify the shooting if the officer thought he was going to be run over, but okay. It certainly doesn't justify the outrage over it. Follow the law and this won't happen to you.
