She drove her car into a police officer. Then he shot her. The shooting was self defense.

[vpintheak]

Let the rioting begin…

[Bounced2X]

Her tragic passing has left a void that words can’t describe

I'll bet. Whose going to provide all the stolen she used to now.

[JennysCool]

This is one of the reasons why thou shalt not steal stuff.

[Leaning Right]

The cop was stupid for standing in front of the suspect’s car.
No matter. He was struck by the car. I’m no fan of the police. But this looks like a good shoot, a shoot in self-defense.

However, one thing bothers me. From the article: “Young is seen turning her steering wheel and driving off.”

So where was the cop when he shot at the car, in front of it or off to the side?
That would make a big difference. I watched the video. Unless I’m missing something, I can’t tell.

[Reverend Wright]

Sounds like a similar situation to the shooting in France that started the riots.

[rbg81]

There will be no riots, at least no nation-wide ones. POTUS is a D — wrong party for widespread riots.

[Chewbarkah]

Would be interesting to know if video shows her shoplifting, since it will be claimed that she was an innocent lamb. The shooting was caused by her refusal to follow simple orders and assaulting the officers with a deadly weapon (if their story is true). But the shoplifting was the predicate to the interaction. If she did it, she baked her own cake.

Ghetto lotto.

[telescope115]

Yup, here we go again…

[silverleaf]

He had ample time and space to get out of the way
He shot her because she made him angry by defying him
Not because he was in danger
They were cursing her and pointing guns
She was frightened
Mom and baby girl - dead
Over “ shoplifting”?

[traditional2]

No time wated at all in getting an ambulance chaser to bilk the city of millllions.......wonder what the woman's arrest record might be?

Black perp= license to loot and riot, and get free sh$t..........picking up a pattern here?

Doesn't matter that no criminal charges against the officers will be forthcoming, the millions of $$$$ in a civil suit and/or Federal "Civil Rights Violation" will establish yet another BLACK family winning millions (most of which the ambulance-chaser will pocket).

[silverleaf]

She was trying to get away from the cop
Not run him down
Watch the video
He could have moved aside and gotten her license number

[DouglasKC]

“Get out of the f---ing car,” the second officer says.
"No," Young is heard saying, followed by, "You gonna shoot me?"

I guess so...

[dfwgator]

Another person who could have used watching that Chris Rock video.

[Macho MAGA Man]

(He could have moved aside and gotten her license number)

Why do that?

[aquila48]

Ta'kiya...

[dfwgator]

Ta'kiya...

[leaning conservative]

I could not tell either, but it looked like he was not in front of the car.

[Major Matt Mason]

The odds are pretty good that she was a thief since probably 75%-80% of the theft in this country is carried out by one group of people. If the store claimed she was stealing, then they likely have the proof on video. Don't want to get on the bad side of police? Then comply with their requests instead of saying, "I dindu nuffin".
