Maybe the ICE agents aren’t as dumb as we thought.

What is his story?



By this point, anyone still working for the federal government in any capacity is a MAGA!

One in six federal employees are doctors or nurses. Should all the military veterans getting chemotherapy just die? How about the ones on oxygen in the VA hospitals -- just walk out and let them figure out how to titrate oxygen, run their own IVs, and read their own x-rays?

Very interesting that Independents are only at 54%. These are the folks most likely to be looking at the incident through a neutral lens.

Looks like the agents are being reminded that you can’t murder women for hurting your feelings.

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.

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.


Everybody on this board would have avoided Good's car by just standing in place or taking a very casual step to the right. He's making the "fear for his life" defense because that's literally all he has. And it comes across as completely laughable to anybody who actually watches the video.

It's not a poor argument. I work with police use of force too. Police are trained to deescalate and "tactically reposition" themselves to avoid danger. This officer did not do that. I wasn't there, so I don't want to act like I know all the circumstances. But my gut says the guy was still suffering trauma from being hit and dragged by a car last year and should not have been actively deployed. Cops are human too. They get triggered, they get mad, they get scared. Training and policy are what should keep them safe - for themselves and for others. And at a bare minimum, it looks like both failed him and failed us. He should not have been on the street, yet the unnecessary surge of immigration enforcement in Minneapolis made the feds desperate to deploy any breathing body they could.

ICE and CBP also have no real expertise at crowd control. So it's a disaster waiting to happen. Over and over and over.

In self-defense and law enforcement training, the "three pillars" refer to the criteria justifying deadly force.

1. Ability: The attacker has the physical power or means to cause death or serious bodily harm.

2. Opportunity: The attacker is in a position to immediately act on that ability.

3. Jeopardy (or Intent): The attacker's words, actions, or behavior reasonably indicate they intend to cause that harm.

She met all three from a reasonable officer’s perception.

The woman was out hunting for law enforcement to obstruct their operations. She hit the officer with her car. She wasn't just walking around protesting. She was armed with deadly force, her vehicle.

People don’t realize how easy it is to declare open season on themselves.

She thought she was playing a game. She was wrong. She failed to appreciate the gravity of the situation.
