Whoopsie. Look what Tampon Tim signed into law back in 2020. As the circus over the George Floyd protests raged on, Minnesota’s Legislature updated its “use-of-force” statute, and Gov. Walz signed it into law that July.
(snip)
MN law §609.066: Officers can use deadly force if a driver accelerates toward them, creating immediate life-threatening danger. No need to wait for impact—they can act based on apparent intent & proximity.
(snio)
And it’s all based on the totality of circumstances known at the moment, not some hindsight debate after the fact.

Timmy will just claim he is retarded, this law is null and void.

The two 'ladies' had malevolent intentions. The radical groups they belonged to encouraged using vehicles to harass and impede law enforcement. Walzy's law will be icing on the cake to prove the ICE agent's innocence.

But Idiot Timmy called it "murder"......despite signing a law making it perfectly within the guidelines of self defense by law enforcement officers BY MINNESOTA LAW.
Perhaps this is why there haven't been anyone mouthing off about "we'll file state charges"......because they CAN'T, it was perfectly within legal limits.
And, again, I will point out that it can simultaneously a perfectly legal shooting, and a real tragedy that a stupid woman died by being foolish and playing dangerous games.

Makes me wonder if they've been huddling in out-of-the-backrooms...[quietly]....''How can we secretly rescind this stupid law that the Knucklehead signed''.

That law was passed pre-Wokeness - - and pre-DEI - - so it doesn't count!

Me too, #10. I can’t imagine being married to a lefty. I have a conservative brother in law who is married to an AWFL and I don’t know how he stays with her. I avoid her at all costs.

That's absolutely false.
It's not even written in a legal manner. There is absolutely nothing in the code from the State of Minnesota's website that says this.

Stop spreading exaggerations to make them look bad. They're doing fine by themselves.

Oops! Guess AG Keith Ellison missed this law before he made his accusations against the ICE officer. Walz, I expect to forget that he signed the law. He is an idiot.

Where's the supposed "wife" in this whole deal? After all, she was egging on her soul mate to run over the ICE agent.

Hey, I heard that Ms. Good was just practicing a 3 point turn when the officer got in her way.

What a moron!!! Walz signed into law the authorization for police officers to use deadly force when someone is seen as a threat to them or other people. The sudden jolt in his body camera picture shows that she hit him.
Since he signed the statute into law, it is hard to believe that he didn’t know that it existed.

So did Gov. Tim sign the MN law §609.066 with pen & ink or with an autopen? It might matter in a few more years. If Minnesota decides to secede from the Union, I won't protest it. Could we swap Greenland for Minnesota? I spent some happy years in that Ottertail Empire. Don't look back; it ain't pretty.

The perfect definition of a liberal.
