Watched the video. This is a murder, plain and simple. Officer was never in any danger.
If something isn't done they will justify future murders because of self defense. Just like what Jimbo and Ned form South Park do before they shoot the deer and they aren't supposed to
"She's coming right for us"
It worked for Scuzzlebutt, it can work for ICE
"We gotta thin out their numbers!"
Yeah, they just wanted to murder her. Trump and the GOP are likely to defend the murderer just like they defended all the others.
They of course did.
unfortunately i think she drove close enough to him that he will get off with self defence
sucks i know
"close enough"
Dude deliberately placed himself in that position to justify use of force.
E: he wanted to kill someone. IMO another one of those “frustrated” raging right wingnuts that always resorts immediately to threats and violence when someone doesn’t do what they want, especially if it’s libtards, women, trans, minorities (the “usual suspects”, I’m sure). Nobody whips out a gun and pulls the trigger that fast on an unarmed person unless they are fundamentally primed and willing.
He already had his gun drawn and was about to shoot. He was just looking for a better angle. If the other guy didn't kill her, he would have.
I haven't seen anyone mention that her attention was divided. Two agents were approaching, yelling at her, one grabs at the door handle while screaming "get the fuck out of the car".
Meanwhile the murderer slowly made his way around the front of the vehicle, out of her line of sight. When she panicked and tried to flee, he saw his moment.
The panicked flight attempt after the other agent told her to get out of the vehicle is what will see the murderer walk free.
To me it looks like the murderer used careful timing to set the whole thing up, confident his leaders would back him up.
You mean he walked close enough to her car as she was trying to get away?
Even if it was clear as day, officer walked up to someone sitting on a bench and popped them in the head, they'd get off - who is going to prosecute, Pam Barbie? State can't prosecute, technically. Tho they should anyway.
