This is a tragedy.
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.
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?
The video shows that the victim was driving in reverse, then suddenly shifted to drive & hit the accelerator.
She was trying to run him over.
She was trying to get out of the way.

Just stopping a driver is incredibly dangerous. This is why whenever I'm around an officer of the law I behave like a whipped dog. It's the best way to be safe around them.
I've watched enough police body camera videos to understand both the incredible risk they take in situations we'd all walk away from, and the risk that entails to anyone engaging on the other side as well.

Kent state except people defending it. They didn't in 1970. Then America sat stunned at they watched the news and saw what we had (briefly) become. But now there is too much hate of other Americans. The right defends this. Not even questioning. Not even saying, how awful but I think the officer must have felt his life threatened. Not even a how awful.

An interesting but irrelevant factoid.

Stay out of the way with a sign & yell to your heart's content, but don't endanger the health or safety of anyone when protesting.
Even if this were true, blocking a road isn't a death sentence.
Correct. However, using car as a weapon--whether intentional or recklessly--is illegal and can justify the use of deadly force.
Someone posted still on threads and the officer was a good two feet from the vehicle and shot into the window when he started firing. How is lethal force justified?

So I guess you would have been ok with all of the J6ers being shot and killed that day at that time. Pretty sure they were interfering with the discharge of duties.
That would have been the best thing. They were rioting, attacking police, trying to kill the VP and all elected officials.
