David French Twists Facts to Downplay Clear Self-Defense in Renee Good ICE Shooting

Oh, David French is Frenching in the most Frenchy way possible. Just like a good Leftist, he wants to pretend there isn't plenty of video showing a ICE officer standing in front of Renee Good's truck and a bullet hole through the front windshield. He's turning himself into a French twist trying to defend someone attempting to run over law enforcement.

Two things stand out about the video:

1) It decisively contradicts the administration's slanderous spin. "Domestic terrorism"? No.

2) The best available evidence shows that the officer had already shifted out of the vehicle's way when he fired the first shot. /1 https://t.co/ajQowPUuMP

It was a clear case of self defense and you continue to be a sellout for your democrat masters.

Bingo!

The car hit him. It was self defense.

1) She was part of a group repeatedly harassing and obstructing federal agents. "Domestic terrorism" might be a harsh description of that, but it is not out of the question.

2) The officer fired after being struck by a deadly weapon. The end.

Her wife wasn't filming her just because she was 'sitting in her car' or 'just driving down the road'. Her wife was filming her because she was instigating an incident with ICE and got it.

The best available evidence does not show he shifted out of the way before the first shot. This is a blatant falsehood.

First shot comes in while the driver accelerated directly toward the officer. First entry hole is the windshield. Clearly not out of the way.

3 things stand out to me.

1) she put herself in a place where she didn’t belong
2) When law authorities say stop, YOU STOP
3) She didn’t deserve to die, but when 1 and 2 happen, you are in a moment where split second decisions on both parties have major consequences

It's very sad she died, but she played with fire and she got burned.

Why was the officer “shifted out of the way David?” You won’t answer truthfully because you know that the vehicle made contact with the officer and that’s why he was “shifted out of the way.” The officer didn’t even pull his firearm until the suspect made positive motion towards…

How dishonest is this. She hit the officer. Who had a weapon trained on her. It's like throwing a punch at a police man and glancing off his body but then everyone claiming she wasn't try to hit him. You threw the punch it doesn't matter.

And on top of that, no matter what, it's close enough that no one should be mocking or cheering her death. One would think conservatives would be horrified by the death of of an American citizen and a mother.

A lot of people on the right severely disappointed me yesterday.

Wrong! The Right didn't 'cheer her death' (like the Left did when Charlie Kirk was killed). The Right simply said she left the officer no choice and that was very stupid. That is just facts.
