OK, I get that she was driving away and it might have been at an officer hard to get all the views when one's dead. Anyway, 1 He could have easily stepped aside and got the make, model, and tag etc so as to not escalate the situation 2 How the fuck is step 2 shoot to kill. Could've shot the radiator or a tire or you know not fired a gun. This is why shit's so messed up, there's no middle ground you're either complying with them or you're a deadly threat nothing in between. De-Escalation training needs to be mandatory every few months.

I’d like to point out that there’s few times scarier/more life threatening than interacting with a cop - esp as a black person. Something about knowing someone can murder you and people will make excuses for them.

I don’t blame her for driving away at all. Exactly because of the bullshit cops pull- aka their guns. There’s no amount of following directions that will save you if the cop is racist/trigger-happy enough.

I agree with de-escalation training. These events seem to have a common elements.

1. Officer tells person to do something.
2. They don't do it.
3. Officer repeats request yelling.
4. Person ignores request. 5.Officer brings out the gun.
5. Person ignores and tries to escape.
6. Officer shots.
