OOPS!
Things are getting so comically bad for Tim Walz that you really have to wonder how all of this is even possible…but I love it!
I’m sure Tim was asleep at the wheel (no pun intended) and probably doesn’t even remember it, but back in 2020 he signed a new law that gave officers the right to use deadly force in situations involving imminent threats — like a vehicle accelerating towards them — with no requirement that they wait for actual physical impact first before shooting.
In other words, in a rare stroke of actual common sense and logic, Minnesota passed a law saying you don’t actually have to wait for a car to run you over before you can shoot at it.
2020 TIM WALZ: “YEP, COPS CAN SHOOT AT CARS THAT THREATEN THEM”
A 2020 Minnesota law came to light after a federal agent shot a woman who tried to drive away from a stop.

What are the odds that Tim Walz would have been the one to put this into law?
And now that’s the entire debate surrounding Renee Good.
Almost like we’re watching a movie….
Grok confirms this is accurate:
Yes, the claim in the X post is true: In 2020, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz signed a police reform bill that amended the state’s statute on the authorized use of deadly force by peace officers, including scenarios involving imminent threats such as a vehicle accelerating toward an officer (which could justify deadly force without requiring actual physical impact, based on the criteria of the threat being reasonably likely to occur absent immediate action).
This was part of the Minnesota Police Accountability Act, signed into law on July 23, 2020, which modified Minnesota Statutes section 609.066 to clarify and limit the use of deadly force while still permitting it in cases of specific, imminent threats to life or great bodily harm.
And you can read the statute for yourself if you like too, I’ve got that for you right here below.
The official statute (as amended in 2020 and currently in effect) is Minnesota Statutes § 609.066, available at: https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/cite/609.066
Three 6’s huh? Weird.
