Okay. Thanks for clarifying.

Not breaking the law does not protect you here in the US. She was black, she had reason to fear for her life, and as we hopefully all learned from Renee Good, cops literally never have jurisdiction to fire upon a driver in a vehicle. So this was cold blooded murder, no matter how you fucking slice it.
