I think the reason they killed her is because they didn't know it wasn't a suicide bomber with a trunk full of explosives. They may have not even known it was a woman?

Again, as I said in the beginning, I'm not making any excuses for her behavior. I just think the cops way over reacted on this one. She didn't have to die.

I fall somewhere in between. It is a shame that an apparently mentally ill woman was killed. However what kind of indication should a cop look for that someone is meaning to do harm? Running a car up to a barricade at a White House security checkpoint is a pretty good indication to me.....they all dont have to be yelling alla akbar as they do themselves in.
And as far as being a woman, if it was a black man it would be open season and more justified? The original cops that had her stopped showed good restraint. One was looking right into her window at her and could have ended right there. unfortunately when she ran she took her own life. Sad, but thats the way it is.

I'm no fan of just shooting away at people, but in this case there are too many unknown factors. And considering the shooting at the Navy Yard, I don't think they had any other choice. Sad but true

I agree with a lot of the sentiments here, messed up situation.
I wonder how the story would be spun if it were a middle age white male wearing camo and driving a 20 year old pick up truck?

Very sad. I didn't have any details when I started this thread. Tragic.

just because she was trying to run them down isn't a good enough excuse to shoo........ oh wait. yes it is. now her family is complaining that they shouldn't have shot her with a baby in the car. those dam police put her baby in the car.
they should go shoot the rest of her idiot family now.
