All he had to do was move aside.

The woman wasn't a threat to him. He was a threat to her and her death proves it. She moved the car after he pulled his gun.

Ignoring unlawful commands is not a crime but she was shot for that.

He literally did the same thing in Chicago last year. Claimed he got "dragged" by the car and that's why he shot. Video shows him running after the car so he can reach in and shoot him.

He didn't have to move aside. She drove around him. Her last action in life was making sure not to hurt the man who was going to kill her.

Exactly, he was holding a phone and a gun and she didn’t even knock him off balance while he called her a “fucking bitch” as he murdered her.

Murder and slavery are common practices in the US.

Not legal for eveyone, but cops can murder people without worry, just like ethnic minorities have to live in fear of being kidnapped/murdered on the street/enslaved.

Oh god I fucking wish I had a phone to call back in time to some debates like 15 years ago when people were saying to me that I worry too much or that I must hate the US because of I criticise it so.

Then five years later Trump becomes president even though he lost the vote and it's been a downward spiral ever since
