Yes (18%) – "An automobile is a lethal weapon. She drove it toward the officer. She would’ve hit him and he may have been killed. It is a no-brainer that a vehicle is a lethal weapon but people don’t like to recognize that fact. Also, if he had not been in front of the vehicle, he would not have hit her most likely, given the trajectory and where the bullet hole was in the windshield. Also, he was a law-enforcement officer legally doing his job and she didn’t have any business interfering with it and attempting to harm him to stop him from doing his job."
No (76%) – "The ICE officer was not at risk, he walked purposefully infront of the car blocking her and had his phone in his hand the whole time. He had enough time to move to her window to shoot her in the face, he obviously was not getting run over."
"No one's life was in danger. Public safety agents are taught not to put themselves in harm's way (so, not standing in front of a moving car) and to secure suspects with the minimum amount of force needed. Shooting a woman who was following another officer's orders to leave the premises is neither of those things. Even if she was doing something illegal (she wasn't), it doesn't warrant the death penalty, especially without due process."
"Footage shows Good remaining calm while the officer did not de‑escalate. DHS policy prioritizes de‑escalation and requires clear justification before approaching a vehicle, which which is not evident here. The video offers no clear indication of imminent danger, aside from the officer standing in front of the vehicle—a position that itself conflicts with safety guidance—leading to concerns that policy was not properly followed."
"No, and the fact that an investigation into the shooting done by both Minnesota and federal officials is not going to happen is just going to embolden more injustices like this. And worst, this further amps up distrust for our police force, when more than anything, our country needs to mend these divides."
Unsure/other (6%) – "Both sides are lying, or at least telling partial truths. The officer did use excessive force. I do think he feared for his life based on his last experience, but he also shouldn't have been in active duty because of that. But she was also doing dangerous things. She was clearly there to agitate. She was blocking traffic and trying to impede operations. I do think she wanted to "hit" him, but I don't think she wanted to kill him. Unfortunately, I think we're going to see more violence as things are escalating quickly in our country."
