A car "barely in motion" has lots of inertia.ummm...no. Recall the formula for kinetic energy E=1/2M(V squared)
Recall the definition of inertia:
in·er·tia/iˈnərSHə/noun
noun: inertia
1. a tendency to do nothing or to remain unchanged.
2.Physics a property of matter by which it continues in its existing state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, unless that state is changed by an external force.Inertia is the tendency to keep doing what it is doing: either sitting stationary, or in motion in a particular direction, at a particular velocity.
Inertia of a moving body increases as the square of the velocity, so the faster a car moves, the more inertia the steering wheels, or brakes, need to overcome.
The national news ran the video from the officer's cell phone. Yes, it looks like the officer may well have been clipped by the car. If he had been hit hard, he would not have gotten the two later shots off, because he would have been on the ground. Reportedly, the officer has 20 years experience. Seems that, somewhere along that time, he would have been trained to instinctively get out of the way of the car, because killing the driver will not stop the car, as he proved.
More striking is the video of the driver. She does not look like the wild-eyed "terrorist" the regime is describing. Everything was fine, until her interaction with the two officers who got out of the pickup, went tragically wrong.
Cell phone footage raises new questions about ICE agent’s tactics before fatal shootinghttps://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/cell-phone-foo...I take it as a given that, as the FBI is keeping all the evidence to itself, we will only see evidence that buttresses the regime's narrative.
