I don't agree with the killing but you have to stop them; the moment she drove away she also became a threat for bystanders. Before the Garner case you could shoot anyone who commited a Felony and run away but now only if they are possible a threat. |
Actually police protocol is that you do not have to stop them. This is why ignorance of a situation gives way to ignorant opinions based on how you feel a situation should be handled compared to how it should. At no point was she ever a threat to bystanders and you are making up this scenerio to support your opinion. As I stated, key protocol is that as an officer and that goes for ICE as well, you never put yourself in front or behind a car. You cannot put yourself into a dangerous situation then claim self defense. You also seem to forget that he shot her 3 times in the face. Have you ever used a gun because its very clear his intention was to kill her.
The real issue I see is that you seem to give the green light for any police officer to use lethal force no matter what. That they cannot judge a situation and just move out of the way which mind you their protocols address this exact situation. When you give the green light to all incidents with police where it boils down to either comply or die, what exactly do you expect to happen.
