A video showing woman seconds before she died. No blood, but still tough to watch.

Ok, here is another video.
It won't change minds, but it is still an interesting moment to think about just for the insane complexity.
On one hand, it completely disproves my assumption, while also PROVING the same assumption from a different way.
She seems to be a protester who is obstructing the road in this retarded way on purpose. While she is calm at the moment (EXTREMELY GOOD ON HER SIDE), she is putting pressure on the cops. Then, the second car appears, and she is forced to defend heresels in the 3 seconds I described before. And that is where I still keep my opinion, that she was in fact not given a human time to comply, before a "fight or flight" kicked in.
@Humpleupagus @matrix
Do you really want to measure time from the moment the cop shouted "get out of the car" and her death?
Because that is the compliance time I am talking about.
@FreeinTX @Humpleupagus @matrix
> No. My first thought when an armed cop is yelling for me to get out of the car
Literally not the question I asked.
@Humpleupagus @matrix @FreeinTX
I get to ask any question I fucking want.
What's your favorite color btw?
@Humpleupagus @matrix @FreeinTX
Thank you.
My point was, that I don't believe she had time to recognize, that people shouting/opening doors were cops in the first place. And even worse, once you initiate physical contact, the reasoning abilities decline to 1/10 immediately. Therefore, they forced her to fight of flight by an insanely escalated aproach.
The fact of them being caps could not even cross her mind at that time.

I am obviously retarded. Why else do you think I would spend my weekend arguing with strangers on the internet?
I'm not getting payed for this shit.
@cjd @LukeAlmighty @Humpleupagus @matrix Her abusive wife opening the passenger door and screaming "DRIVE, BABY, DRIVE DRIVE!" probably contributed to her hitting the gas. Stills from the body camera footage did not show an expression of fear but of someone who thinks they're pulling off a movie getaway.
@Humpleupagus @matrix
In that case, I do consider you to be insane. Sorry.
And to put things into a context, I also support shooting of people who purpusefuly disrupt the processes needed for a working society. But, the escalation of force cannot be arbitrary like it was here.
If she was in middle of black block? Unload it all. I will be happy to support such a measure. But in here, one calm get out of the car could have made things turn out different.
@Humpleupagus @matrix
Obviously, things do turn ugly fast, but please, don't tell me, that your instinct woudln't be to run, if out of nowhere, you saw a guy twice your size grab your car door, and another one shouting at you.
She was in the complete idle mode at the moment. That's the thing that is the most shocking to me.
