Videos from the scene and its aftermath call into question two aspects of the D.H.S. description of events: Mr. Villegas-Gonzalez is not shown hitting either officer with his car; and, in the aftermath, one of the officers says his own injuries are “nothing major.”
Right after the article mentions their rules of engagement in that situation being that they should have backed away from the moving car, it then states that the action would likely be considered justified due to the officer being in danger… from choosing to hold on to the moving car? Like his injuries are clearly because he didn’t let go of the car until it was going fast enough that he fell off and skidded… that seems like his choice and not something the driver did.
They are not authorised or recommended to use force to prevent a “suspect” from fleeing.
Police in the US are almost always deemed justified because the standard is basically thst they felt afraid, so it was OK to kill
Imagine being so racist you don’t let go of a moving car
They took a job with the fucking gestapo, the racism is already boundless
