Fair enough, but as I’ve said before, I wasn’t there. I might have easily reacted the same way.
This whole thing stinks. It’s as if the woman had a stroke or some sort of seizure.
When some normally polite and kind woman suddenly starts “acting strange,” I would argue that the first thing to do is not to execute her.
Also, I agree with people who say that if a police officer can’t disarm someone with a knife without killing her, that officer should seek gainful employment elsewhere.
