Why would she not plead her case behind her locked door? Pass her ID under the door first, explain the situation, and THEN come out?<p>It seems a lot of the situation could have been avoided. I don&#x27;t think they were going to shoot her through the door for a burglary.<p>The events after were pretty disappointing: officers not giving their names, the rude neighbor, etc. But race really seems to play a minimal role in this story and it&#x27;s frustrating that she&#x27;s trying to spin it as some sort of racial&#x2F;police militarization issue rather than what it is: an ignorant (and potentially racist) neighbor who got her in a mess.
