Went for a cops gun, abducted him in his own cruiser after dragging him. Then still tries to get his gun while hitting the gas after crashing. Give us a break lady. No one feels bad for that evil toolbox.

[diceyending]

The officer did fight a criminal. And won the fight for his life. 💯

[chriso]

That lady is what is wrong with society.

[lawrencelibhardt]

If you try to take out an officer and the he fights back, it is NOT A MURDER.

[darrenlee]

I am not a fan of many cops but these cops did their job, taking out the criminal trash who have zero regard for other people's lives.
Anyone is totally justified to defend themselves.

[jonasbarbury]

A criminal has chosen a dangerous profession for themselves.

[richardchavez]

If you don't want to die, don't break the law or attack an officer.

[darrenmadden-cssk]

The fact that she called her brother a criminal from the jump speaks volumes

[arsnel]

Give me a break. He grabbed the officers gun and fought him tooth and nail. Did you think he would just take the gun and leave it at that?

[bossycowgurl]

Lady needs to realize that her brother was a POS.

[patrickharris]

Don't be a criminal. Problem solved

[stuartanderson]

In other words, she's upset her criminal brother wasn't protected and allowed to kill the cop because that cop had no right to defend himself.

[jnmwtkns]

Sorry sis but you dead wrong on this one.

[Chmcdrz]

This woman is very wrong. Your brother shouldn't be a criminal and attack police.

[flatmoon]

If you commit a violent crime, expect the same level of violence back.

[TheReign]

I'm a black woman and will is disturbed and delusional.

[thedarkestowl]

I hope she gets the police she deserves.

[TheTir]

Her brother was a pos that went for that officers weapon. He wasn’t trying to take it to a pawn shop, his intent was clear.

[maxwelltodman]

The fact that she admits that her brother is criminal doesn’t seem to register with her. He played a stupid game and he won his stupid prize.

[Merauder]

She is pissed off that her criminal paycheck is now void. She should find a country that lets her be a criminal since that's what she values.
