Washington DC Car Chase - woman shot dead

[Peter Lemkin]

With the militarization of the Police at all levels and in all areas; and the integration of intel and military INTO the police forces for training, spying, and apparently some of the officers on special ops teams [SWAT and such], they now have [as Dave suggested] a kill first and don't even bother to ask questions later approach. I remember [am old enough] when Police tried to talk even those who said they had guns, bombs or hostages into a surrender or some accommodation...and there were specially trained hostage and bomb/gun negotiators. Now its just brute force to kill any perceived threat - whether a threat or not. This is an extreme case, but I don't think, sadly, any changes nor justice will come out of this - nor will any of the officers who killed her even loose a days pay or be placed on desk duty pending investigation. There's a 'war' on - and it is against us to create terror....any way, every day. Whether they drove her to this in a variety of ways or she just went off the 'rails' due to stress, there was NO reason to kill her. Her car was small and they could have talked her out of the car and arrested her. In the freeze frame on the video above, she is surrounded by at least 6 armed men. She had no weapons and they could easily have told her to slowly open the door [or opened it after having her put her hands up]. They have electronic equipment that can tell if there is a bomb and they obviously determined there was none - or they'd not have come so close to the car. Those men would have seen a frightened woman and a young child....yet they chose to kill and ask [sic] later. Such is the Police State in the USA today. This could happen in any major city and many minor ones - not just near the buildings of the corrupt government......it was a murder and very nearly also of the child. Sick, and this will continue, and is escalating weekly.
