For example, if you are funding violence against our law enforcement officers, I'm not a prosecutor.

My guess is that's not the sort of thing that earns capital punishment, but it should sure as hell earn you a few years in prison if you're funding the effort to try to assault our law enforcement officers.

I'm sorry, guys.

What's going on here?

You guys are meant to report the truth.

How have you let yourself become agents of propaganda of a radical fringe that's making it harder for us to enforce our laws?

You just asked me a question that presumed that the reason why this woman died is because she was engaged in legitimate protest.

She tried to run somebody over with her car and the guy defended himself when that happened.

Next question.

Look, I don't know what is in a person's heart or in a person's head.

And obviously, we're not going to get the chance to ask this woman what was going on.

What I am certain of is that she violated the law.

What I am certain of is that that officer had every reason to think that he was under very serious threat for injury or, in fact, his life.

What I'm certain of is that she accelerated in a way where she ran into the guy.

I don't know what was in her heart and what was in her head, but I know that she violated the law, and I know that officer was acting in self-defense.

It raises an interesting point, though.

Look, if people want to say that we should have a legitimate debate about what was she really doing, right?

Was she panicking when she drove into this officer, or was she actually trying to ram him?

That's a reasonable conversation.

What's not reasonable is for so many of you to plaster all over the media that this was an innocent woman and that the ICE agent committed murder.
