Whatever...  As a former peace officer I have seen nothing that justifies deadly force.  Deadly force should only be used if there is an imminent threat to the officer's life, or the life of another.  There is nothing that I saw in the limited video that I have seen that justifies it.

Had she broken through completely she could have easily been controlled and taken into custody.  If others started coming through, again they could have been controlled.

I'm usually one that backs law enforcement officers in the case of deadly force.  In this case, it was wrong.

IMO, when you are breaking the law and a police officer tells you to stand down, yet you ignore his commands, you deserve to get shot. I have absolutely no sympathy for her at all. I don't care what sex you are, what color you are or where you come from. When you are breaking the law and an officer commands you to stop, you either follow orders or face the consequences. I would have shot her too, if I was in the same situation. 

I wonder if you would feel the same way if this was a bunch of liberals rioting and looting the capital building? I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this. We all do.
