He's so scared that he has his gun in one hand and his cell phone in the other and keeps filming before, during and after shooting her, including his final words to her, "------- bitch"? Uh-huh.

So an officer has his phone out recording obviously distracted, shoots a woman and calls her a "---- Bitch" and they think that HELPS the case?!?

Yeah, that's what I got out of the video: He was pi$$ed at her and her mouthy wife.

The narrative from the both-sidesers that maybe Good & Ross both just panicked doesn't fly with the latest info. There are 2 choices now:

1. Ross shot her 3 times because he was in fear that she was about to seriously injure him;

or

2. He shot her because he was angry at her.

they didn't leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don't seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.

thinking a lot lately about our surprise when the victim of state violence is white, a citizen, a priest, a veteran, some category viewed as exempt from that violence. it's time to understand you aren't. no one is. whiteness isn't the color of your skin it is a conditional privilege you can lose.

in the 60s, the klan killed white civil rights workers alongside their black comrades. when you join the struggle you lose your status in the system you're fighting.

in the streets, on a riot line, at a demo, wherever. we're all the same to them. they're blue & you're the enemy. i'm not too proud to admit that i didn't really understand that until the first time a cop hit me, a little blonde white woman. i watched a lot of other white women learn that in 2020.

there is still a lot of power & privilege in being white, being a citizen, knowing you have the resources to get bailed out or hire a lawyer, knowing you won't get deported ... use it wisely. but don't think it will stop a baton or a bullet. please don't think it will save your life.

I need to see a freeze frame, but in the NYT video it looks to me like Ross unholsters his weapon before Good even switches the gear into drive. That is why his gun is out and in a position to shoot when she moves forward. Anticipatory "self-defense"

Look, I don't think it would be wise to protest ICE with a sign that reads WE'RE ALL SORRY ABOUT WHATEVER WENT WRONG WITH YOUR PENIS given how they seem to be violent, reckless -------- who will lash out at you because they desperately need to prove to themselves they're still Real Men.

"White women really do think they can get away with anything."

Only white women who have lived a quiet, non-violent life may think they won't be targeted by ICE. Any woman who has lived a different kind of life, or knows women who have, knows differently.
