I hold a research grant focused on vehicle ramming attacks, and I curate what I believe is the largest database of these incidents, more than 500 cases worldwide since 1987. As a result, I have watched more video footage of vehicle ramming attacks than most people ever will. That is why I am going to be direct about what the available video shows in the killing of Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis on January 7, 2026. Based on the publicly available footage described by multiple outlets, I do not see indicators consistent with a deliberate vehicle ramming attempt. When authorities claim “she tried to run over an officer,” they are not just offering an interpretation. They are trying to lock in a narrative that justifies lethal force after the fact. What I see, and what is being described in reporting based on video review, looks like ambiguity and escalation, not a textbook ramming attempt. Reports indicate the agent was not in the vehicle’s direct path when shots were fired, and that at least some shots were fired from the side as the vehicle moved away. This matters because I know what ramming attempts look like when they are real. Across hundreds of cases, intentional vehicle ramming attacks tend to leave a signature in the footage. * A purposeful approach line toward a person. * Commitment to that line. * Steering corrections that track a target. * Acceleration and follow through. Those indicators are the difference between “the vehicle moved” and “the vehicle was used as the weapon.” When the state kills first and invents the threat afterward, it is not policing, it is death squad behavior. ~ Yannick Veilleux-Lepage, PhD Associate Professor at the Royal Military College of Canada |
So the ice agent should know what this expert knows? I’m not defending the agent. I’m calling this out as a poor, specific argument. |
| If I’m on your side, and I am, I don’t want terrible argumentation |
The fact that no other agents thought Good was a threat, proven by the facts that no other weapons were drawn and that the rest of the agents we milling around, is yet another proof point that Ross wasn’t in danger. |
Have you listened to Chicago's Police Chief? |

The Daily podcast had Minneapolis police chief on today. Pretty clear ICE were in the wrong, but since this cop believes ICE was going against protocol, MAGA will call him traitor. https://youtu.be/DttxfyGBwj0?si=Ib8isFb-W0arTkiR |

"Do you think the ICE agent should face criminal charges for shooting the woman in Minneapolis?"
All: Yes: 53% No: 30% Yes Among: Democrats: 90% Independents: 54% Republicans: 14% YouGov / Jan 11, 2026 |
Who cares. We are all traitors according to them |
Yep ICE and DOJ are Trumps version Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. |

How come Todd M Lyons never goes on TV
