I mean, all of a sudden, when you have a large vehicle being revved up and barreling toward you, you're on a hair trigger. It's not exactly like ICE agents have been used, you know, vehicles have been used in ramming instances. So they've been targeted, they've been shot at. So they're on hair trigger alerts. So my first advice to anybody who doesn't particularly like this, fine, but don't obstruct the lawful actions or more tragedies like this will occur. (01:16–01:20)
