I see no justification in the use of deadly force here.   So why did District of Columbia police officers shoot at Miriam Carey. You watch the video and tell me:

Carey evidently had medical issues. However at the time the DC shoot at her, she was a not threat to the public.

Reax, from RT:

When it emerged that the woman shot dead by police on Capitol Hill was a depressed single mother, questions surfaced as to why police fired a stream of bullets at an unarmed driver who had an eighteen month old baby in the back of her car.

New details surrounding the death of Miriam Carey are swiftly changing the story’s turn of events: originally, one in which she was accused of being armed and confronted by police heroics during a government shutdown, into one about over-zealous police gunning down an emotionally-troubled woman in front of her child.

The police posed a greater threat to the public than Carey.

Maybe summary executions are the emerging Obama Care protocol postpartum depression.
