It depends on if there were other agents in the direction she was driving. The fuzz doesn't stop blasting you once you give them a reason to consider you a deadly threat.

If you shoot once and then rum away they will shoot you in the back. They assume you are a deadly threat to others, not just the one you attacked.

I don't see anyone there. If there wasn't, was this cold-blooded murder?

In wouldn't rule it out. But I know from what I have seen in my town that the 2nd paragraph is true. If you attack the polo with a deadly weapon and run away they will give chase and shoot you in the back. They are trained to do this because "for all they know" you are a threat to the general public as well.

It is best to keep the protests peaceful and if you are going to peacefully obstruct, stay cool and let them arrest you. Let them be the asshole.

Of you panic or strike them then you won't live to protest another day and you may hurt your own cause. Regardless of if the officer enjoys or regrets shooting you.

Also, everything is "terrorism" now. Terrorists don't have rights post 9/11, they are just now using the powers they have been giving themselves since the 1990's.

Yep -- "rules based international order" is dead after Venezuela, so why not "rules-based national order"?

She did not have a weapon, the 3 shots were point bank at her face, the car only drove off like that because she was dead already

In the eyes of the officers her vehicle is a weapon. If she were standing in the street blocking traffic this would have played out differently. She is being detained and there is an agent I'm front of her car. It's possible she wasn't even looking where she was driving because of the two agents at her door.

She starts driving forward into the agent in front of her as he draws. He fires the first shot. Those are the events. The entire time they are ordering her to stop and the agent that fired was blocking her path.

I'm not saying it's right. No government authority is legitimate. There are plenty of criticisms to the approach they are taking.

Any armed police force would handle this situation this way. Protestors ought to be annoyingly peaceful. The Canadian truckers protest in Ottawa are the example IMHO.

The other angle the office get hit by the car. Can people run over cops now?

Dude walks away fine at the end of this, he didn't get "run over" at all

How could he get "run over" if he then walks to check if she's dead and then walks back hiding his face? Not even limping...

If a multiple officers tell you to stop you stop. If you gun it and hit them they can defend themselves that’s the law.

She was ordered to turn the car around and was complying.

They told her to stop and exit the vehicle right before shooting her.

Didn't even have time to take off her seatbelt.

Stop trying to justify gang members murdering civilians. It's putrid

So she didn't "run him over" now or what?

The law does not say you can kill someone for fleeing, and even if that were a law somewhere, it would still be wrong. No one got hit. You are free to watch the video and see.

So you're resorting to straight up lies to justify ice murdering american citizens?

Are you Israeli?

Untrained amateur hour there

The driver or the cops?

Stop it…

Wasn't meant as a joke. This tragedy could have been avoided. It looks to me like she tried to flee and an officer stepped in front of her vehicle while she was reversing.

I just don't know how you don't get shot if you drive into officer or fail to break if he steps in front of your vehicle.

That also doesn't mean it wasn't murder.

Or she got hit by the first round and just pushed the pedal in agonia.

Ok to be more clear- She was murdered by a fucking incompetent, undertrained officer that lost his shit. The gov is going full1984 trying to call it self defense. That’s my fucking humble pissed off opinion.

They ordered her to turn around and no obviously no one was standing in front of her because no one got ran over when her corpse pushed the accelerator
