They did at one point but they were rolling and she braked out of it. The fact that she wasn't shooting is irrelevant. She'd tried to crash the White House gate and was racing around the Capitol area. She had to be stopped before she killed a pedestrian or detonated a trunk full of TNT. Nobody knew what she was up to or capable of.

I am sure thats all true Bruce. It just all seems so senseless. And so terrible for the child. A tragedy.

Maybe i am bleeding heart, but i am trying to be less cynical about people. I am finding it to be less stressful.

Eta: some people do make it difficult to not think the worst though. :/

OK, but when people do some stupid shit there's no time to find out if they are just having a bad day. This is called "suicide by cop".

Besides, we got over 300 million more.
