+1. Also, wasn't this new video from his body cam, rather than a cell phone? So he wasn't holding the recording device in his hand.


No, it's from his cell phone, which was dropped as he went for his gun.


Or as he tried to get out of the way of the car that was heading towards him.


With her turning the steering wheel in the opposite direction? Are both of you this bad at physics?

Disagree. She was taunting him and aiming right at him.


Do you seriously think taunting (which by the way was coming from her partner, not her) justifies deadly use of force???

You might be a psychopath.

She wasn't shot for taunting. She was shot for attempted murder

Deceased and her partner were intentionally blocking the road? Deceased partner was taunting the cops?

Are these premises correct?


Correct or not, 100% irrelevant to the question of whether there was a justifiable use of lethal force.

I supported ICE prior to this and I view the death as unfortunate by justified. The posters claiming we should fear ICE because of this incident are spreading misinformation. I would never be killed by ICE, because I would never attempt to interfere with their operations like this woman did.

ICE agents are law enforcement officers, not nazis or some kind of gestapo as some on this thread have called them. Every other country and party in the world enforces its immigration laws. Democrats seem to be the only party/people in the world who believe that immigration enforcement is illegitimate.


Even the mullahs in Iran are warning protesters that they will be punishable by death. So no. Ross was not justified in aiming his gun at her, never mind pulling the trigger three times and executing her.



Obviously it wasn't right and yes he should be reprimanded, but under the circumstances, the understandable panic he felt, and the split second in which he acted, it was a massive f*** up, not "murder" like the far left wants so badly to believe.

That’s what I saw too.

I see ZERO evidence that his life was in danger nor evidence that she was "weaponizing her vehicle", in fact it is now clearer that she was leaving the scene.

Just because the wife was mouthing off was NOT a reason to use deadly force.


It isn’t a justification but it shows how stupid and unhinged the people trying to obstruct ICE are.

I don’t think the shooting was justified, but WTF were they trying to accomplish exactly?

Who goes out and tries to antagonize and pick a fight with law enforcement trying to do their job? If I don’t like speeding enforcement should I follow state troopers around screaming at them, holding a cell phone in their face, and blowing whistles next to them all day?

The officers are doing what they are told. They can’t just decide not to do their job because you disagree with it. Of course they should try to stay cool… but they are also human and if you put them under enough pressure long someone will lose their cool.

That's a really strange and disingenuous take. She was spinning the steering wheel to the right to pull away as an masked agent was trying to rip open her door. You have zero idea how you'd react in that moment. And aside, there was nothing in that video that justified her murder.

In that split second when the cop saw the car heading towards him, was he really supposed to realize that she was turning the wheel?

I think that you’ve accidentally nailed it.

She was murdered because she hurt the feelings of a man child.

It appears from multiple sources, Good belonged to a group called “ICE Watch.”

One of ICE Watch’s main activities appears to be to alert each other whenever ICE moves on public roads, and then try to block ICE, using their private vehicles.[/quote]


Lovely.

She was shot because the police officer who was in a panic (justifiably so), made a mistake.

What panic? Haven't you ever stepped out of the way of a car in the parking lot? He showed no signs of panic.

Nope, he pushed his cellphone holding hand toward the vehicle while firing. Never lost his footing, didn't let go of the cellphone.

If it is that cut and dried that Ross was justified in using legal force, he had a genuine and reasonable fear for his life or the lives of others, then you should have no problem with a trial. If it is that clear, then a judge can direct the verdict or a jury of his peers, fellow citizens of his neighborhood, will quickly find him not guilty and this will be put permanently to bed without further speculation.

What say you MAGA? Are you that confident that he was justified in using lethal force?
