Agree. He was making wild and aggressive statements within minutes of it happening, without knowing the facts. Someone of his standing should surely know to be diplomatic and careful of what statement he puts out there until the facts are confirmed. He clearly had his own agenda.

Funny how regularly right of centre posters aren't so condemning of Trump who can say what he likes about this killing.

I agree, I haven't seen any evidence to back this up.

Not that it matters in any case. Even if it turns out that she was a regular protester, that wouldn't have been a reason to execute her in the street. And the self defence argument simply isn't backed up by the evidence.

Not even Vance would say she was a paid agitator his news conference yesterday.

Obstructing law enforcement was his lie excuse

You're not going to share the information you have on Renee Good? Don't you think it is important for this debate that we all have access to as much information as possible?

Edited

You first. And please, not information quoted by friends and family. The facts are that her wife was there. Filming the situation on the sidelines. Which kind of puts to bed the idea that Renee was driving to the shops, totally oblivious to what was going on in the area. She was clearly there as an agitator, and was well aware of the situation. This obviously does not mean she deserved to be shot, as I don’t believe that the ICE agent was in any real danger. But please don’t continue to pedal the lie that she was there without realising the situation she was in. She has the right to protest, but also should be aware that putting yourself in such a volatile situation carries risks.

Oh @hattie43
Using a dead woman’s children to make a political point, especially on a parenting forum, is vile. It says a lot about you and your utter lack of decency.

If your response to this woman's state approved execution is “she had it coming”, you have lost whatever moral ground you think you’re standing on. She didn’t die because she protested, she died because ICE decided her life didn’t matter.

Your comment is designed to spread hate, division and normalise state violence.

You must surely be aware that this is not just silly 'mumsnet thick trolls/bots/spotty keyboard warriors', that there is infatct widespread different opnions and many clips that show her driving erratically and heading towards an armed officer?

Where are these many clips of erratic driving? Repeating something continuously as fact without evidence doesn't make it a fact.

I have asked you to show me even one from a legitimate source and you have not been able to provide any, even from a random x account.

I am beginning to think you have an agenda.

Livelovebehappy · 09/01/2026 09:20

ThatCyanCat · 09/01/2026 09:06

Obviously, because the situation had escalated.

What's the objection to people filming law officers in a public area? Why do people not like that? A woman has been shot dead by an official, and the complaint is that evidence of what happened was caught on camera?

Now that’s silly. Her wife was outside the car filming well before the incident. She didn’t suddenly jump out of the car whilst Renee was trying to turn the car around to remove herself from the situation, to film it all. It wouldn’t make sense.

Leaving something worth passing down? Your children are killed on a daily basis just for going to school, not by immigrants, but by their peers.

Your police are given carte blanche to murder people.

1% of your population control 30% of your wealth, while the bottom 50% struggle on 2.5% of it.

Ordinary working people are afraid to call an ambulance in case it bankrupts them, and children are dying of preventable illnesses because their parents can't afford basic healthcare.

Meh. Never said you had to like it.

Have you ever even been? Or do you only ever really experience it through the pages of the Guardian?

loislovesstewie · 09/01/2026 09:22

She's been described as a 'legal observer'. I'm not sure what that would mean. Was she paid to do that by a specific organization? Does it give some special protection, by which I mean would she have had ID etc to show what her purpose was that day? Was it purely a voluntary role, not recognized by the authorities?

Summerlilly · 09/01/2026 09:23

This makes me so sick. I can’t decide what’s worse, the gaslighting occurring from the orange rapist or from the Americans actually defending the pos who did this like we haven’t all seen the video.

She was pulling out of her driveway people. You can hear her neighbour calling out.
He then positioned himself in front of the car to shoot her. He knew what he was doing

LlttledrummergirI · 09/01/2026 09:23

RingoJuice · 09/01/2026 09:03

Yeah she shouldn’t have been using her car to block ICE. Obviously this can be dangerous. Plenty of other ways she can do her activism

Where is the evidence of her doing this? She was waving the cars past.

Why does that man she can executed on the spot?

What are you asking me to prove?

I have said absolutely nothing about her background at all because I know nothing other than what I have seen and read in the news. I saw your post about her background and asked where you got your information from as you seemed to have more knowledge.

You are obviously not able to back up your statements. Or the source of your information is dodgy. So Hitchens' Razor it is.

Shame on you for lying about a dead woman. It is a horrible way to behave.

Absolutely not agreeing with Trump’s account of things here, as I’ve said on previous posts. But the reality is that there is mis information coming from both sides. I just don’t agree with the narrative that Renee was caught up in something which she wasn’t aware of. Whether she was or wasn’t doesn’t mean she deserved to die. She didn’t. It was total over reaction but evidence shows, by the wife being on the pavement filming what was happening in the lead up to this, that she was aware of where she was and was not a frightened individual caught up in a scarey situation she had stumbled into.

Ok. Let's pretend that you're right, for the sake of the argument.

OK. Her wife was filming. So what? It's a public area, there were law enforcement officers (of a kind) present, and such enforcement should be transparent. It's not a crime to be filming, and in fact it's good to have a record in case something should happen, as it did here. What's your objection to someone filming law enforcers in a public area? Why should this information not be recorded and shared? Why do you not want there to be evidence available in a dispute? Why can't someone film public servants in a public area?

I agree that she probably was involved in some form of protest against ICE but I’ll apologise if I got that wrong. I can’t see a reason for the filming otherwise. The camera seemed to be out before they even approached her car.

From.that same article, a border patrol officer is quoted as saying he supports racial profiling.." How do they look compared to you?"

"They". Any non-white person will be racially profiled. But all A ok, because " the scale of the problem".

The extent of this "othering" is beyond depressing.

And ironic, in a country largely built on immigration, oppression (and slaughter) of indigenous people and importing slaves from the other side of the world.

i am just saying that sources like chat gpt and videos which absolutely prove something but that no one can link to aren’t facts 🤷🏻

You may well be right. I have no idea what she was doing there, I just don't think it matters anyway.

As you've rightly pointed out, she didn't deserve to die. And that is the key point.

So when you wrote

She was well known for being around these situations. Basically put herself amongst it. I happen to think that the story being pedalled from the government is totally false - the ICE agent was never in real danger of being run over - at least not to the extent that she needed to be shot three times in the face. But let’s be clear that also the story being told about her being an oblivious housewife on her way to the shops is also BS.

You weren't stating facts. Just what you have decided in your own head. Got it. Thanks for clarifying.

But can’t you see? You’re using the same evidence for your view of what’s happened here, as I am for disputing it? We’re taking evidence from what we are seeing on the news. The information regarding her being an activist is out there, the same as the information about her not being an activist. I’m not going to source the information for you,there’s so much of it. Just read the information out there, and make up your own mind. As have I. I might be wrong, you might be wrong, once the full facts emerge. But as far as I can see, she was aware of the situation she was in. Still didn’t deserve to die.
