This is a useful compilation. While the ICE argument is that their agent acted in defense, that completely ignores the context. They weren't trying to apprehend a violent criminal, they were trying to intimidate someone they viewed as a protester. You can clearly see in the center bottom videos, Ross easily sidestepped the vehicle without injury even after remaining in the front quarter of the vehicle to draw his weapon and fire two shots. There was zero chance of him being hit by her driving away, and his shots did not stop the vehicle. In a way, this is like the kid who was shot eating a hamburger in a parking lot. The situation was unnecessarily escalated so that a trigger-happy cop could get the thrill of shooting someone.
