Fuck those Gestapo fuckers

A more appropriate headline:
An ICE [fascist paramilitary] fired at an SUV fleeing [an unmarked] car stop in Pennsylvania. That’s not how it should happen, policing experts say [because it endangers everyone]
You should be free to flee when guns are pointed at you without warning
Glad we have "police experts" to tell us that we aren't supposed to be getting shot in the back by police.
Still missing the point, focusing on "They didn't block him good enough"
How is one to discern this isn't an attempted car jacking? And how else would one respond when a couple of random cars try to box you in and some jackhole comes up and immediately breaks your window while screaming at you?
Goddamn right I'm going to flee!
Policing amateurs also say this
Earth is sphere-ish so by driving away, they were also moving toward the ICE agents and putting them in fear for their lives. Won't play well with the flat Earth segment of the base but you can jingle keys somewhere else to distract them.
that's how they do it on tv, which is the only education and/or training these knuckle draggers ever got
ICE is a rogue agency headed by a rogue administration and no one aside from some courts and a few Congressmen are doing anything about it. In fact Congress has given them tens of billions of dollars with no oversight. This is the darkest timeline.
They're going to turn into rape gangs soon.
They already are and sadly its been happening for years

ICE is begging for civilian millitia oversight
Yeah, if you shoot someone in the back, you're a criminal every time.
It drives me crazy when movies depict police yelling "STOP!" and then just start shooting at someone as they run away, without any narrative of how that police just tried to murder someone who wasn't a threat to them.
That Hollywood normalization of murder had literally brainwashed the majority of people into thinking it's acceptable and legal for police to murder people by shooting them in the back.
In any work set before 1985 this is likely to be accurate. Most states had laws on the books called "fleeing felon laws", which specifically authorized law enforcement to shoot fleeing suspects in the back if they were suspected of a felony. SCOTUS deems that practice unconstitutional in 1985 (with some exceptions).
Saw just that in the new Apple show Lucky. FBI guy goes blasting away at 90lb girl who running away. Especially fucked up when his boss said not to pull guns wanted her alive. But most movies normalize it so that we will think it okay and normal.
Did the cop loose their job or face any criminal charges in the show?
Well no but he did get hit by a car that was sort satisfying. I thought he was killed but scene later revealed he in hospital hurt but would survive but never be a field agent again.
The punishment for fleeing police can never and should never be getting murdered.

Oh God, the expert is ex NYPD.
You have to *really" fuck up to get criticism from NYPD..
Jesus Christ, they're criticizing them for poorly placing the car. Not for shooting at someone who is not posing a threat (running away)
"Not how it should happen"
The copaganda is unreal in this country. Imagine describing attempted murder this way in any other circumstance.
