When you hit and drag an officer with your car, you are going to be shot at. We have a long history of prosecuting "being hit by a car" as "assault with a deadly weapon" in this country. Especially when we have had so many cases of drinks, drug dealers, and so on, attempt to kill police with their cars (and succeeding in many cases) as well as killing innocent bystanders. We call it vehicular homicide.
Before I get cancelled, I'm all for due process. ICE is doing bad things. The government is doing bad things.
All that being said, running over a law enforcement officer, even when the officer is in the wrong, will get you shot (and probably killed).
I understand your point, but did you watch the security camera video? If you haven't, go watch it and ask yourself if the shooting was warranted.
