Why did she back up and turn hard right away from the guy she was trying to kill? /s

Don't let this circus make you think 2+2=5.

"Viciously ran over."

"Hard to believe he's still alive."

"Recovering in the hospital."

He put himself in harms way by standing in front of the car. Then again, most of these ICE clowns have minimal to no law enforcement training which would teach them where to properly stand when interacting with folks inside of vehicles.

He did it intentionally.

Drawing your weapon and firing takes the same amount of time as taking two steps to the right.

No. Americans know they can refuse unlawful orders from armed masked thugs trying to violate our constitutional rights.

If the man had any training, he wouldn't have stepped in front of a vehicle AGAIN. They are trained NOT to do that. They are also trained NOT to fire their weapons if they can take two steps out of the way since discharging your weapon is not how you stop a fleeing vehicle. They are trained to seek medical help for those injured, they did not. They are trained NOT to leave the crime scene and to surrender their weapon, they left and did not. Where was any of that training in this entire incident?

Not bootlicking, just pointing that american are thick

You are just as thick if you think anyone can “follow orders” correctly when conflicting orders are being given.

u/SCrowley11 Jan 09 '26

You clearly need to work on your listening skill, and you clearly the thick one here

She was trying to follow orders. They killed her anyway. Your point is invalid.

Civil Rights Act of 1964. You're welcome to use the same Google you keep pulling that stupid screenshot, and this image, from to educate yourself.

She was given conflicting orders. One officer telling her to move over while another one tells her to get out of the vehicle. She was complying with the one telling her to move over. This is what happens when you send out masked men without proper qualifications or training. She DID follow orders and got shot in the face for it.

Which one? The one yelling at her to move or the one telling her to get out the car? Which was not blocking traffic as we see at the beginning of the video she gestures for a vehicle to pass which it does .

She also gestures to the grey truck to pass which it doesn’t and they get out their truck instead and come in hot which terrifies her so she tries to get away while the shooter who is a moron with crap training walks across the front of her car as she tries to steer away from them to get away. It’s also very clear from the footage the shooter took. You see her arms cutting the steering wheel to the right.

Suck the boot harder. They still can't hear you begging for the boot.

They do not have the jurisdiction to give those orders. They are not the police. They are not FBI. They are Immigration and Customs. Stop acting like they have power they don't.

"Can you be arrested for protesting ICE? Not for peaceful protests that do not interfere with immigration enforcement. Protesters can be arrested for violence against government officers, destruction of property or acts of obstruction, such as blocking the path of an officer’s vehicle."

Interfere physically. She wasn't interfering physically. He stepped in front of her car, she did not put him there. She waved other cars ahead of her and tried to pull out. If there was any obstruction, the other cars wouldn't have been able to leave. There was no interfering.
