What’s the lives of a few kids compared with the need of the nanny state to collect revenue from an uncooperative peasant? You let stuff like this slide and the next thing you know, the peasants won’t be paying their other taxes.

Article makes it seem like cops fired after first takeoff. It was after the second.
Neither side handled this well.
stupid badgemonkeys. they dont know Holders peeps are above the Law??
Lucky the family dog was with them...
The first two officers acted properly. The third officer shooting at the minivan, did not.
I saw the video.
The officer who shot looks to be shooting at her tires not the van.
The mistake the police made was not handcuffing her from the start.
She was obviously cantankerous.
They should have sat on her and never let her back in the van and called social services to pick up her kids.
New Mexico, same as old Mexico. :-)

African-American mother Oriana Ferrell was pulled over in Taos for going 71 mph in a 55 mph zone on Oct. 28. Ferrell was later arrested and charged with child abuse, fleeing an officer and possession of drug paraphernalia.
The 14-year-old boy was charged with battery. The other children were taken into the custody the New Mexico Children, Youth and Families Department. They were later placed in the care of a family known to Ferrell, according to court documents obtained by The Taos News.
At a hearing on Tuesday, Eighth Judicial District Judge Jeff McElroy reviewed the dashcam footage and said that the “court is concerned about the nature of these charges.”

Looks like a combo overzealous policing and fortunately lousy shooting, better to just let her go and contact her later.
