That agent chose the risk of getting run over to be able to shoot someone.
He deliberately stopped and stood in front of the vehicle.

There's about 5 different angles where you can clearly see the dude getting out of his car, walking to her car, and then murdering her instead of just stepping half a step back. He was never in danger.
You can get fucked. A 6 year old child has been orphaned. Try telling your bullshit to him.

Bullshit.
No one gets to walk in front of a car and then murder someone because they could run over them
He manufactured the situation where he claimed he was in fear for his life. He had every opportunity to not be in that position.
Or — and this is clearly visible in the video — they could've just driven past in their truck, as she was motioning them to do, instead of getting out and power-tripping.
Glossing over that fact is completely siding with ICE.

You're making shit up again. "Intention to obstruct?" That's so clearly a lie, because you have no way to know what she intended.

I'm calling you a liar because your line of thought doesn't comport with reality, and I've had enough of liars brazenly telling us to ignore what we can plainly see with our own eyes. I don't know your intent, either, but that's a textbook fascist tactic, which is why I'm done with being nice about it. Okay, for the sake of argument, let's say that Good intended to block traffic:
- She then did a shitty job at it. The vehicle in front of the ICE truck had enough room to go around.
- Waving at them to go around, too, is a really bizarre thing to do if one's intent is to block traffic.
- Even if she had successfully blocked the street, the ICE goons didn't have to get out of their truck.
- Once they got out of their truck, they didn't have to go power-tripping by trying to breach her vehicle.
- Assuming her intent was to ram the guy (who wasn't even in front of her vehicle), he could've just stepped out of the way.
- Shooting somebody in the face is not proportionate to the alleged offense.
Geez louise, this "blocking traffic" narrative doesn't even stand up to the barest breath of critical analysis. But there's more:
She wasn't even there for the ICE protest. She had just dropped off her son. Here's a reason to pull out into the street like that: To turn around and go back the way she came. It's a Y-turn, and here in my Midwestern city, I see this maneuver several times a week. I've done it myself more times than I can count. So here's a hypothetical narrative, but one which is not plainly contradicted by the events in the video:
- Uninvolved driver finishes dropping off her son, tries to do a Y-turn.
- She did not see traffic coming so quickly (from behind), so she stops to let them go by.
- First SUV has plenty of room to go by without incident.
- She waves to the pickup truck driver to go around, a very common thing in Minnesota.
- Instead of going around, several men get out of the truck menacingly.
- They immediately attack her vehicle.
- In a normal human response, she panics, and tries to get away from attackers.
- ICE agent immediately pulls and fires weapon and kills her.
And the cherry on top is that it doesn't really matter which interpretation is correct, the one that makes sense or the one that doesn't, he fucking shot her in the face because ICE agents decided to be power-tripping pigs. But for that decision, it all could've been avoided.
