Tragic result of disobeying officers

What motivated Renee Good to act as she did? As the investigation continues, ask yourself what you would do if law enforcement approached your car. Would you put your car in park? Would you keep your hands on the wheel or raise your hands? Would you exit the vehicle when instructed?

If confused by orders would you hit the gas and try to drive away or would you ask the officer(s) to clarify their command? Her death is a tragedy. But the real tragedy that everyone seems to be ignoring is what caused her to view obeying law enforcement as optional and not required.

If a person disagrees with law enforcement, shouldn't you initially obey and then take legal action later. The words and ideas guiding her actions on the day of her death robbed her family of a mother.
