[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The woman was attempting to escape when she recklessly placed her SUV in reverse while disobeying a legal law enforcement officer's order to get out of the car. Then she recklessly (with reckless disregard for the safety of others) placed the car in drive, but unfortunately an officer with his gun drawn was crossing in front of her vehicle as she was attempting to escape.

This is a tragedy.[/quote]

Correct. I have seen videos from different angles and what some people don't realize yet is that in trying to drive away, the woman actually drove directly at an agent. I can see why she did that in a moment of panic and misjudgement, and most likely would have swerved away as she drove away. But in that fatal second, she was aiming at an agent, and that is when the agent shot his gun.

This is a tragedy and there is blame for both sides. But right now people really need not to get charged at fighting and blocking ICE agents who are doing their lawful job.

Protest ICE peacefully, don't interfere with their actions, stick to court cases and peaceful protests. [/quote]

I thought law enforcement were trained not to get in front of moving vehicles/vehicles in drive?  Aren’t they supposed to come around from the sides to prevent this, especially because people tend to panic in these situations? [/quote]
