Somehow this is the only country on earth where this seems to happen. When talking about shootings involving guns, okay, fine, the US is certainly an outlier there, but every country has cars and police.
This is murder.

I just watched it. You could say her driving forward while the cop was in front was bad, and maybe it was fleeing, but does that deserve a death sentence? They’re recording with body cameras, so they have her license plate number. They can identify her and put out a warrant for later easily. Is that not more appropriate? Who cares if she was shoplifting. Does that hurt anyone. Let her live and deal with it later if it needs to be dealt with.

LOL! No it’s not “more appropriate”. They had her right then, so they should let her go, put out a warrant and hope they get her back? Hope the license plate comes back to her or anybody else? Show up at her house so she can lock herself in that? Where does the excuse making end? SHE chose her own fate, SHE had dozens of times to comply, she chose the other way.
In many countries this is exactly what the police are trained to do: de-escalate the situation even if it means letting the person go at that moment, so that no one is put needlessly in danger.
Police everywhere are trained to de-escalate. Its why they have voices, its why they have pepper spray, its why they have tazers, all options before it comes to shooting somebody. That Lady was given every chance there was, and it was her choice to attempt hitting a cop with her car. Zero sympathy
Every chance there was… except for the other chances that you don’t think are appropriate for some reason. You don’t deescalate by pointing a gun at someone, yelling at them, or trying to force your way into their vehicle.
You’re a bad person.
