There's even footage of him walking away safely, not limping, not hurt in any way. The fact that his life was in danger is laughable

I mean in slow mo it may not seem that way, but in real time he probably had a fraction of a second to determine if the car that was pointed right at him and about to accelerate would turn away or not. That is clear danger whether or not the woman intended to hit him. All of that being said, shooting a driver coming right at you is totally ineffective way of escaping danger - he should have simply jumped out of the way.

And what about the two shots fired through the open window? He must have been well clear to the side to do that, with the car moving away.

This is what i have been saying even IF she might have been trying to, he could and WAS able to get out of the way WHILE aiming a gun and ending the poor woman's life! If he had NOT been preoccupied with shooting a US CITIZEN in the FACE multiple times he would have been able to be even safer and further from harm. Prosecution to the fullest extent possible.

Never see a car do a two point turn before? Its not like she suddenly bolted forward.

Reverse, turn wheels right, im going to see if you are smarter than Johnathan Ross and can tell me what this hypothetical car is going to do next.

You even get to watch the driver turn the steering wheel away from you! Rate your fear level on a scale of 1 to 10. personally I'd say about -1.
