"YES! Precisely! Except even the New York Times was forced to admit that Ms. Good was 'participating' in an anti-ICE protest 'when she was killed.' Her wife, Becca, who leapt out of the car to film Ms. Good interacting with ICE officers, can be seen on camera taunting them, saying 'We don't change our plates every morning, just so you know. It'll be the same plate when you come talk to us later. ... You wanna come at us, you wanna come at us, I say go get yourself some lunch, big boy.'"
"- Ms. Good wasn't interfering with police, she was innocently driving through the neighborhood ... YES! Precisely! Except she was intentionally blocking traffic, having stopped her van at a right angle in the middle of the street, then refusing to move. In the Times' version, Ms. Good's car was merely 'blocking part of a road.' True, only the part covered by the length of her car. By that logic, the ICE officer only shot a 'part' of her brain."
Mainstream accounts portrayed Ms. Good as an innocent driver, but video shows she and others were participating in an anti-ICE protest. Her wife filmed and repeatedly taunted ICE officers while warning them about license plates. Ms. Good stopped her van at a right angle and intentionally blocked the street, then refused to move when officers ordered her out. Officers issued commands rather than asking questions. Describing the vehicle as merely 'blocking part of a road' minimizes the obstruction. Political context included calls from a Democratic lieutenant governor urging residents to physically protect undocumented people from ICE.
