WASHINGTON (AP) -- Police in Washington are reviewing the use of officers' deadly force in the killing of a woman who tried to ram her car through a White House barrier, a shooting her family says was unjustified.

I wonder ... did they see/perceive panic on the face of the lady?
Was the baby crying?
Parents read their children's faces and society operates on people perceiving each other ... something human is missing these days.
“She appears to have been disturbed. Doesnt mean she was dangerous.”
Good point.
We all know it’s the calm and rational people that decide to run over people with their car and not the disturbed.
Disturbed people driving wild are a threat to no one.
My wife tells me I am no longer allowed to go to Washington- I drive exactly like the young lady .
The DC police acted stupidly. The capital was on edge, worried there might be an uprising because of the ‘shutdown’ or 0bamacare. They expected trouble. They were incapable of understanding that they had a disturbed woman, now afraid for HER life.
Something always stinks with Obama and Co.
I’m sure Jesse and Al will let us know how much it stinks, and how much we are going to pay.
We will probably never get an accurate and complete report.
We will, as is often the case, have to try and figure things out as best we can on our own.
With the media we have, we are largely on our own to filter out the noise and try to find the signal.
Speeding past the capitol. She was killed close to the residential area in NE DC, a couple blocks NE of the capitol.
Her car had major rear end damage. However it had very minor damange on the front end. She was clearly not trying to ram anything, just backing up so she could turn and flee the cops who were shooting at her. She obviously didn't pay attention to what she was backing into.
Her last maneuver was backing up into a large plastic trash container.
There was very minor damage on the front bumper on the driver's side. Looks like about 5 mph of impact.
Cop car crashes into police barriers at Capitol Hill
Keystone cops figured out how to do it. Cop was injured by his own right foot and air bag. I guess he wanted to beat the bicycle cop to it.
They need to show me video before I believe it.
There’s a huge difference between a man on a suicide mission (look at his facial expressions in the security cameras) and a panicked woman. The panicked woman backed into a few things including, apparently, a secret service officer. But the front of her car had very little damage.
Judging from the very minor damage to her driver's side front bumper, I would say she tried to stop but bumped into something (maybe that barrier, maybe something else) at 5 mph or less.
“They said”
Well then it must be true.
According to a witness interview, they REMOVED THE CHILD FROM THE CAR BEFORE KILLING HER! I saw a video showing that. They did not have to kill her.
… In actuality, there may not have been any commonalities between them, save that both were 34 years old, black, from Brooklyn – and that they both decided to go berserk in the nation’s capitol within a few weeks of each other.
add the man who was on fire...a lot of weirdness
Perhaps everyone speedi g should be shot.
“She appears to have been disturbed. Doesnt mean she was dangerous.”
Of course not. Who really believes that 15 or more Capitol police were scared to death of an unarmed woman with a small child driving erratically? Give me a break.
Just keep drinking the Kool Aid folks. Submit and obey immediately or bang bang.
Obviously she was dangerous...the car was a weapon. Geeez...wake up.
