3. Apparently you misunderstood.

When i said: We the People are angry...and peaceful, I was referring to those of us who are showing up to rallies and protests in response to the extreme measures perpetrated by ICE.

I found Renee's partner's taunting of the federal officer to be unnecessary...but not illegal. The First Amendment entitles her to be a vocal jerk.

However, the taunting by the federal "cop" crossed a line of professionalism and training. He is obliged to de-escalate...not escalate. He is issued responsibility along with that gun and misplaced trust/authority.

No matter what - neither of the woman did anything to warrant lethal force. Nothing Renee Good did demanded the death penalty.

The SO/wife was about to get in the car - they were going to leave. I am not a judge, I cannot decide the appropriate charge or possible fine for Renee's behavior behind the wheel....if there is one. It was certainly not death.

ICE needs to be restrained. They are violating peoples' rights every day...without consequence.

You are not obligated to identify yourself with the injustice that ended Renee Nicole Good's life. Many, at the rally I attended last night, do.
