1. The police made the right decision in this case.

The woman was driving crazily around DC, would not stop, and attempted to hit multiple people with her car. Not to mention hitting a secret service agent who was trying to detain her, and attempting to drive through a White House security checkpoint.

Miriam Carey put her child's life in danger. The Secret Service and Capitol police were correct in this case.

There are bad cops, there are good cops. Quit trying to vilify them all.
