> He's already been stuck and dragged by a vehicle in a previous incident, so he's well aware it's a weapon, and he has good reason to fear it.

That's one take. Another is that he needs serious remedial training as he's put himself in a stupidly risky spot in direct violation of ICE policies at least twice now.

"ICE officers are trained to never approach a vehicle from the front and instead to approach in a “tactical L” 90-degree angle to prevent injury or cross-fire, a senior Department of Homeland Security official told NBC News."

Your take: "He's trained to do exactly what he did."

Facts: He's actually trained not to do what he did (twice).

That's not what you quoted when you called it my take.

Now that you've got an actual take, I can respond:

He was trained to respond to deadly force with deadly force. That's what I'm talking about, the shooting. It was by the book.

Where he positions himself is about his own safety, nothing to do with whether he should pull the trigger or not.

He won't be found liable or guilty of anything.

> He was trained to respond to deadly force with deadly force.

We have plenty of footage of the Good shooting, including clear footage showing the tires pointed away from him.

> Where he positions himself is about his own safety…

He placed himself in a dangerous position, in direct contravention of ICE policy on the matter. At least twice!

> He won't be found liable or guilty of anything.

Sure, but that's not because he shouldn't be.
