I'm just sad about the state of our country.
I don't see how anyone - on either side of this dispute - can say with any degree of confidence that the *first* shot fired by the officer was or was not justified. We haven't even had an investigation!
I can say with lots of confidence that she wasn't trying to run him over or ram him with her car. What I can't say with any confidence is what he perceived in the almost instantaneous moment that he decided to shoot.
I can say with lots of confidence that the second and third shots were not justified. I can say with lots of confidence that refusing to allow a doctor to provide medical assistance to the victim was utterly inhumane.
I am sad that the current administration is choosing to enforce immigration policy in this manner.
I am mortified that humans have reacted to this tragic event by posting things like "FAFO." What is wrong with someone who would do that?
