Guess white women don't "commit suicide by cop."

Have no idea why she wasn't shot, unless she seemed more whacko than threatening.

I thought this quote was pretty amusing: "This is a pretty quiet area. I saw the gun and said to myself, ‘I’m going to go inside.'”

Incomplete story. The story says she wore body armor and she was found in her car in a parking lot. The story doesn't say if the police fired upon her or her vehicle nor does it say how was she arrested. Likely she ran out of ammo, police arrived with guns drawn, ordered her to throw out her weapon, step out her vehicle, and other instructions before handcuffs were placed upon her. Follow instructions and you live, don't follow instructions and you risk injury or death.

It's a valid question but one can not jump to the conclusion the article does yet. Maybe the officers are better trained than in areas that shoot first and ask questions about whether it was justified later?

Or maybe there is something to the questions being posed.

More "whacko" than "threatening" while shooting indiscriminately at people? Are you serious?

No it doesn't sound familiar. Experiences with people of color and the police have a long checkered past. All you need to do is learn about it.

In New York, that would have been an automatic kill if she was Black.
