Video Spurs Debate on ICE Shooting and Self-Defense (Full Transcript)

[00:00:00] Speaker 1: Well, if you see the tape and you look into the details of that, that unarmed civilian weaponized a motor vehicle and tried to run over an officer who serves in the Immigration Customs and Enforcement Agency of the country. And he made a split-second decision, and it looks to me, while we await the final details of the investigation, it looks to me to have been an act of self-defense. He was defending himself.

[00:00:23] Speaker 2: But Mr. Speaker, we've all seen that tape. When it comes to an unarmed civilian, was it really the appropriate moral response for her to be shot almost at point-blank range?
