Whether she hit him or intended to hit him or not, I don't know. Either way, she is dead.
What I cannot get my head around is all these idiots who do such stupid stuff such as to even show up to protest anything to do with illegal riff-raff invaders and wanting to keep them here. They take time from their lives to show up at **** like this, and put themselves in a position for something bad to happen.
I read she liked to play guitar, was a poet, etc. and now she can't do those things any more. She won't get to see her kids accomplish things, whether it be his or her first base hit, first piano or dance recital, their marriages at some point, holding her grandchildren. For what? It isn't as if she was defending herself or her family, trying to save herself or them from some sort of action by a criminal. Getting killed doing so would at least be for a just cause. She was there where people are defending criminals and opposed to those (ICE) wanting to rid our country of criminals.
To give up your whole life, rob your children of growing up with a parent, over a bunch of illegal trash. Hardly seems worth it.
