The rest of my post you removed for whatever reason is the important part here to me. This ICE force needs to be put in check. The people running this thing are doing a huge disservice.

In the last directive I drafted shooting at or into a moving vehicle was absolutely prohibited. The directive came with an evaluation of such incidents showing that never in teh history of the world had a 180 grain bullet stopped a several ton mving vehicle but had, occassionally, turned that several tone projectile into an unguided projectile. The Department for whom that directive was drafted wanted to adopt it as written. The Unions for the Officers lobbied hard to get that portion removed and to have me removed. They prevailed. I do note that the main bargaining union did attempt to hire me as their attorn ey wich i turned down. I did, however serve as an expert witness for their attorney in three different matters subsequently and before my retirement. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stand where we see the officer standing in that frame, left quarter panel of a car. Point your finger to look like a gun. Point it at the windshield where a drivers head should be and it will all line up. There. Is. Video. Evidence. Let Jerry handle it like he did when we had our bet. Puzzy.

thegeneral 3,801 Posted 12 hours ago 11 minutes ago, Ron_Artest said: Second-Degree Murder This involves an intentional killing that was not planned in advance. It sits between the "cold-blooded" nature of first-degree murder and the "hot-blooded" nature of manslaughter. Intent to Cause Harm: The perpetrator intended to cause serious bodily injury, and that injury resulted in death. Depraved Heart: This refers to conduct that is so extremely reckless and shows such a "callous disregard for human life" that it results in death. I think this shooting is absurd personally but putting that up on a cop is not going to work looking at history. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jerryskids 7,248 Posted 11 hours ago 44 minutes ago, Ron_Artest said: Yes I do. Watch the whole video. He walks around the right side of the vehicle while the driver is looking left. He walks right in front of the car while she reverses. Instead of getting out of the way, he likely says to himself, fock you I'm not letting you get away and he pulls his weapon. As she goes into drive, he takes a side step with his weapon drawn and fires as she's driving away from him. I think he was angry, maybe has some PTSD from the earlier incident, and didn't want to de-escalate the situation as he easily could have. I believe he murdered her, and then immediately after he probably regretted it, just like the other agents there that just noped out of the whole situation. Alrighty then.

She may have seen the gun and turned away, making a shot from the front hit the side of her head. Or vice versa, the first shot may have turned her head into the subsequent shots.

Much respect, seriously, & thanks for the rest of the post as well, all good stuff. Just a point here - Immigration & Customs Enforcement was not impeded by Good. They drove around her. She tried to leave. But not just that, where were they going? What address? To arrest what suspect? I don’t expect you to know, no one knows, not even Immigration & Customs Enforcement. And you’re right, our system of government does recognize the right to protest. But the state has no rights, no powers enshrined in the Constitution. The individual is preeminent.
