Interesting how she dodged the point the responder was making "the cops are lucky". Which means society got lucky we should have more tools than "luck" to ensure the safe city she claims to desire .

There is NO appetite to sentence him. He will not see the inside of a jail.
Again, terribly sorry about the death as I’m sure is the cop. But it’s not a just conviction albeit it might still be lawful at this moment in time

Just plain the existence of a criminal?
Because no, someone riding a moped on the sidewalk is not enough of a risk to the public to justify a police pursuit.
Police officers should behave lawfully. I expect police officers to behave lawfully. Don't you?
Define lawful. In fact, sane people must define lawful not vomit out an emotional manifesto and call it a law.
Again, here is who’s defining “lawful” in DC. This guy!
I expect our lawmakers to be sane or scrap the Council. Don’t you?
We're all entitled to our own opinions. We're not entitled to our own definitions of what is and isn't lawful (with a possible exception for Supreme Court justices).
This police officer received due process of law.
That’s also a problem. Because the Council, untrained and politically motivated, with the impulse control of a toddler at a birthday party, does get to define what is lawful in DC. That lands us in a situation where some opinions are far more “equal” than others. So yours is valid and tinged with moral outrage but mine and that of in fact vast majority of law abiding citizens is not.
I got you on lawful/just so I think we are done here.
