Angry... yes.

But peaceful is the crowd on the sidewalk protesting, not blocking them in a car and certainly not driving away when you're ordered to get out of the car (apparently leaving her wife behind who was trying to get in).

The reason we feel for her is because we agree with her protest and (much more importantly) because some idiot overreacted and shot her multiple times. But if they had chased her down the road and arrested her for impeeding federal law enforcement... I wouldn't have objected.
