...if ya look at the pic of the car she was driving after it was sitting on the side of the road with no one in it you can see a bullet hole in the headrest and a bullet hole in the window. If you line them up the ice agent had to be standing directly in front of the car when he fired. They trying to hang the ice guy like they tried to hang that kid who shot the mostly peaceful but fiery rioter up there in yankee land someplace. I can't remember his name. Getting to where I can't remember anybodies name. Gonna just start using pronouns and adjectives and maybe a couple of adverbs when I am talking to people.

Amy Swearer (@AmySwearer) ~ I've now watched the Minneapolis ICE shooting from three different angles, and there's no real question -- it was quite obviously a legally justified use of deadly force by a law enforcement officer. That officer faced an unknown subject who, while ignoring lawful commands, pointed a 3000+ lbs. car at him and evidenced an intent to continue driving that car. He shot the driver: (1) after the driver made physical contact with his body, and (2) through the front windshield. You can slow down the video all you want and spend minutes analyzing micro-seconds to make after-the-fact assessments of the likelihood the driver actually intended to use the car as a lethal weapon. In reality, during those micro-seconds in real time, it's reasonable to presume that a driver ignoring your commands to stop is about to floor the gas peddle, turn the wheel into you, and run you over. It's no different than the reasonable presumption that the suspect who ignores your commands to keep their hands up and reaches for the gun in their waistband intends to use it against you rather than toss it away.

Amy Swearer (@AmySwearer) ~ For the "but why didn't he read her mind and/or assume her motives in a split second" crowd ...

This is a remarkably on-point example of how badly things can turn out for officers who try to guess a non-compliant driver's motives, and guess wrongly.

Even at close range.

All it takes is a half-second for the driver to floor it and swerve at you instead of away.

Paul (@WomanDefiner) ~ Pretty crazy. A snowbank saved an officers life after a female driver rams him with her car.

Amy Swearer (@AmySwearer) ~ And for the "it was an illegal arrest because ICE has no authority to detain American citizens, etc." crowd ...

Minnesota law explicitly authorizes federal immigration agents to make warrantless arrests when, within the scope of assignment, they come upon reasonable cause to believe "any felony" has occurred.

Impeding a federal agent [such as by angling your car across a roadway to block their travel] is, in fact, a felony.

You may think it's weak potatoes, but those potatoes still make french fries.
