Lars Larson shares his thoughts on the death of Rene Good in Minneapolis
Lars Larson
The Northwest Nonsense
You know why I didn’t get shot to death yesterday?
Cause I was at work, doing my job, instead of threatening the life of a law enforcement officer, like the late Rene Nicole Good of Minneapolis.
I’ve found that life is “all about choices.”
Yesterday morning, Ms Good chose to confront ICE officials doing their job of clearing illegals from another American city.
She chose to use her Honda Pilot to obstruct law enforcement in a neighborhood. When officers ordered her out of the rig, she tried to run down an officer standing right in front of her. We have the video and I’ll send it if you don’t believe it.
Good chose to threaten an officer.
The officer fired three shots, and Rene Good’s life ended.
It’s not the first time someone weaponized a 4-thousand-pound vehicle and aimed it at a cop but the officer did what the law allows … fired to stop the threat.
Confrontations like this have been going on for months, including close calls right here in the Northwest. People using vehicles as weapons in confrontations with cops because they don’t like the law.
Democrats like Minnesota’s Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey have encouraged this obstruction of Justice. They choose to let the confrontations continue because it wins political points for ‘em.
Some of Rene Good’s blood stains their hands today.
