One shot through the windshield straight to the dome while being run over by a car. Impressive focus and control
It was a good shot.
Hopefully this stops the violence from the left.

She has a very punchable face. Probably also has a glovebox full of unpaid tickets.

Everything I said was factual. Indisputable. And legally speaking, justifies the shooting. You know it. But will continue to call it something it wasn’t.

Psyops and illusions especially work like a charm on already disturbed, hypocritical Lefty minds. But then again, the Right can be just as reactionary, conditioned and fooled to defend their "team" without scrutiny.
Frankly, I'm not sure if either "team" knows for sure what reality "happened" in either case.

Interfering with ICE is same as interfering with regular LEO

I’ve not claimed to be a lawyer.
I had just read about it. See link below to an AP article.
The Department of Justice says in its Justice Manual that firearms should not be used simply to disable a moving vehicle. The policy allows deadly force only in limited circumstances, such as when someone in the vehicle is threatening another person with deadly force, or when the vehicle itself is being used in a way that poses an imminent risk and no reasonable alternative exists, including moving out of the vehicle’s path.
The debate over shooting at moving vehicles has been sharpened by high-profile cases, including a 2023 shooting in Ohio in which an officer fired through the windshield of a car in a grocery store parking lot while investigating a shoplifting allegation. The pregnant driver was killed; the officer was later charged and acquitted.
John P. Gross, a professor at the University of Wisconsin School of Law who has written extensively about officers shooting at moving vehicles, said while more departments have added explicit policies regarding use-of-force and moving vehicles, officer training also needs to improve.
“If this woman was blocking the street and a law enforcement operation, they are entitled to arrest her. What they are not entitled to do is to use deadly force to arrest her,” Gross said. “From just watching the video, this seems like an egregious example.”

how much of a douche bag people are when celebrating someone being shot in the face?

I watched it happen when a guy, who wasn't breaking the law or trying to run over anyone, was shot in the neck.

Good points. However, some of them are actually debatable, not 100% certain. Not every moving vehicle fleeing a scene is a threat to other people’s lives. And policies are reviewed and adapted as a result of real world experiences.
As I posted from the AP article:

From a legal standpoint, the LEO was 100 percent in the right. Your ignorance to that fact doesn’t change that it’s a fact.

Here is the only part of that article that matters. And that isn’t even fully correct regarding the standard. If the officer reasonably believed that was happening is the standard. The author of that AP article is equally misinformed as you.

Do you feel the same way when someone is shot and killed that's trying to kill any other random innocent person?

Good. Because that’s not what happened.
They tried to arrest her, and then during the course of the arrest, one of the officers had reasonable fear of serious bodily injury and he responded (appropriately from a legal, policy and ethical standpoint) with deadly force.

Have you argued these type of cases in court?
Is a test of reasonableness ever applied?
Or do courts just take the officers explanation that they believed it was happening as gospel?

Technically? I suppose the LEO can be claimed to have been "protecting himself from "harm" or "assault".
The "fact" however is, he not only didn't take any effort in removing himself from potential harm's way, he foolishly closely approached a moving 3-ton vehicle (driven by a nut) as though it were 150 lb human.
Another "fact" -- using deadly force in this case in the overly aggressive manner he did was unwarranted by any properly trained emotionally stable LEO.
