You can't start at the point the ICE agent had already set up his pretext to execute her. That's equivalent to equating legality with morality, which doesn't work when talking about what ought to be. Rather you have to examine the entire situation, which was an extreme escalation by ICE in response to what was essentially protesting.

There was no pretext to execute her. It's when she started driving (even spun the wheels I think) towards the officer were shots fired. In your mind, does police getaway equate with protesting now?

  • In your mind, does getting away from the police equate to getting shot? In the head? Three times?

    Even police chiefs have called out how incompetent that agent was.

  • As I said, you're starting at a point where the ICE agent had already set up his pretext to execute her.

    • And as I said, there was no pretext to execute her. (Or you need to explain what the word "pretext" means to you, and perhaps also "execute".)
