Her killing was recorded on video and quickly sparked protests that spread around the country.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>WFAA chopper footage from the protest outside Dallas City Hall showed more than 100 people gathered outside the building, carrying signs. The protesters then marched in the streets chanting.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Dallas protest was organized by a coalition of 13 organizations, according to a statement sent to WFAA ahead of the protest.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This unprecedented escalation of ICE violence has spurred us and 12 other organizations into organizing this protest, and the response to this event and our call to action has been significant,&#8221; Elise Dorough, a representative of one of the organizations, said in a statement ahead of the protest.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Dallas City Council member Adam Bazaldua characterized the shooting of Good as, &#8220;just the latest example of how our rights to simply exist are not only being threatened but compromised.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This type of lawlessness is exactly why we as a City Council stood firm with our DPD Chief and told ICE that they are not welcome in our city,&#8221; Bazaldua said. &#8220;This also serves as a reminder of how critical this year\u2019s midterms are and how much is at stake to get Congress back to working for the people in its branch of government, independent of the Executive Branch. Due process along with governmental checks and balances must be restored!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, though, described the incident as an \u201cact of domestic terrorism\u201d against ICE officers by a woman who \u201cattempted to run them over and rammed them with her vehicle. An officer of ours acted quickly and defensively, shot, to protect himself and the people around him,&#8221; as the Associated Press reported.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"People gathered outside Dallas City Hall Thursday in protest after an immigration officer fatally shot a woman in&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":502791,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5135],"tags":[5229,1596,358,3187,67,586,132,5230,68,2969],"class_list":{"0":"post-502790","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-dallas","8":"tag-america","9":"tag-dallas","10":"tag-texas","11":"tag-tx","12":"tag-united-states","13":"tag-united-states-of-america","14":"tag-unitedstates","15":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","16":"tag-us","17":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115862934925423684","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/502790","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=502790"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/502790\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/502791"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=502790"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=502790"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=502790"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
