plan to trap you, I merely wish to find the most common ground possible and just let it rest as evidence will come out.

I grant broad deference to the agent in this case. He was quick to shoot, but he had a split second to act or not with a TDS nut moving her car against orders and right toward him. I strongly suspect that in the end, this will end up being a sad misunderstanding in that I suspect that the girl was looking at the other two agents to the side, and did not have her eye on the road ahead as she foolishly decided to disobey orders ( she may have panicked). The agent in front acted to preserve his life having to decide whether he should trust this girl or not. The hostile treatment of the agent by these criminals who try to impede federal agents absolutely also plays in to what was going on his mind. Also, the guy should be held to the level of his training, not a Navy Seal.

I suspect the agent himself feels horrible for the girl's loss of life regardless of the correctness of the decision (though I would certainly look at his past record to see if he has a history of bullying/trigger finger).

It is all very sad actually. But TDS is real. We see people act on it over and over with violence, and it was reported (again info is early) that she was present because of her political radicalism. She fit the bill, she acted the part, she disobeyed direct command, she endangered a federal agent, and sadly, she paid the greatest price of all.
