Somehow it just had to happen in Minneapolis. Opponents of the Trump administration’s immigration enforcement efforts have been waiting for their martyr, and now they have one.
At about 9:40 a.m. local time, ICE officers were engaged in enforcement activity and driving south in the 3300 block of Portland Avenue in South Minneapolis. When a protester, later identified as Renee Nicole Good, pulled her Honda Pilot SUV into the path of the agents’ vehicles and prevented them moving forward, two agents stepped out of their pickup truck, which was unmarked but had its low-profile emergency lights activated.
While those two agents approached the Pilot and attempted to detain Good, a third agent, who apparently had emerged from another vehicle, approached the front of the Pilot. When an agent attempted to open Good’s door, she backed up a few feet before driving forward and toward the third agent, who now had his pistol in hand and aimed at her. The Pilot continued forward, striking the third agent, who fired two or three rounds from his pistol. The Pilot continued a short distance down Portland Avenue before colliding with a parked car. Good was taken to a hospital but died from a gunshot wound.

Officer Jack Dunphy, the author of the article, retired from LAPD...He is now working for some other police agency in Southern California...No, "Jack Dunphy" is not his real name...
Officer Dunphy also mentions the LAPD policy in a situation like the one in Minnesota...LAPD expects the officer to just get out of the way of the car...The officer is not allowed to shoot at the car or at the people in the car...I had no idea that such LAPD policy existed...
Officer Dunphy writes that it is possible for the prosecutor to refuse to charge a police officer for shooting...But, his department could punish him for not following the department policy...
At the onset, Good is not a martyr.
Not a martyr, a distraction from the massive fraud being uncovered. Walz and Omar need to be arrested to shift the narrative back to where it belongs.
This is the 21st century. Women need to lose the notion that they can still play the lady card and get away with antics that men cannot.
ICE is federal & not the LAPD, ffs.
What happened to “An officer’s reasonable, articulatable perception of impending death or serious physical injury”? That’s a pretty universal standard for use of force throughout the country.

A cult member committed suicide by cop. Just a question of whether it was planned in advance or a last second bad decision on her part.
The testimony “the lady was behind the wheel and put it in drive while I was standing in front of it” would make most people reasonably suspect their life was in danger. So yes, her decision was fundamentally flawed. And inimical to her continued existence. Which ends up as the Romans would say “Qui temerat sic inveniet!”

Good to see he's still around.
As seen here Shooting at mowing vehicles carry some risks.
AS seen here even that the driver is dead the vehicle continued on striking this time other vehicles.
The vehicle could easily ran over people.
ICE was very lucky not to have had that happen.
Strange, how the mob appears to be sober on a Friday night, and if they are then it doesn’t bode well.
An excellent example of FAFO.
What was the awful part?
But that is not the case in Minnesota.
Under a law signed by Prancing Timmy himself.
I assume that the attempted murder of a husband and father was unsuccessful.
>ICE was very lucky not to have had that happen.
The responsibility for attempted vehicular homicide lies solely with the driver. “could” could include the woman not being shot but proceeding to kill any number of law enforcement officers including the one directly in front of her but others if she decided to make additional attacks when not stopped.
In this case, the driver, the co-conspirator woman, and the people and organization(s) who incited this action are all at fault.
By describing the removal of a pedo illegal as some sort of fascist nazi tyranny that good rebels should leave their kids, drive hundreds of miles, and not merely protest but actively disrupt with vehicles, leftist media and politicians instructed people to cause death one way or another.
Any sense that a defender takes full liability for the whole situation as soon as he tries to stop it is crazy and wrong, and exactly the no-win scenario the left wants to promote. The reality is the illegals are in the wrong, doubly so the ones like the guy being rounded up that day who’ve committed additional horrible crimes, the leftists who don’t want them removed are wrong, and doubly so the leftists who are actively committing crimes trying to stop people from stopping crimes.
More like AWFL!😀
They both operate under the same use of deadly force law. Feds do not have leeway that local police do not. Not in a legal sense, not in a case law and supreme courts sense.
They get away with more like Ashley Babbett’s murder, or like Lavoy Finicum where the FBI lied about not firing shots until it was proven they did.
But despite US Attorney corruption, they operate under the same body of law.
We in the trade have a term for incidents like this one where the results are tragic, even avoidable, but do not rise to legally prohibited conduct: “awful but lawful.” This one surely was both.
