After seeing the video, I don't think my stance has changed. Cops are too quick to shoot in general.
This cop recently had 33 stitches after an "observer" ran over and dragged him with a vehicle. He probably hesitated to defend himself in that incident.
At least two verbal commands were issued to stop the car and get out. It's clear from the video that her window was down and she was speaking to the officer that made the commands, in English. Instead of stopping, she reversed then shifted into Drive and then floored it hitting the other officer. I would interpret that as an attempt to cause bodily harm and shooting in self defense is totally justified. It's not like she was worried she was getting car jacked or something. She and the goofy butch dike knew 110% that these were federal officers because they had been following them and interfering with them all morning. Add to that that her partner was verbally threatening them. When a pair of lunatics are threatening you and then take threatening action against you, I think you have to assume that the intend to do harm to you.
