I don’t necessarily condone nor do I want to romanticize what this mother did. However, fear of your child being killed by police can cause a very strong visceral reaction. It gets to survival mode/protection of your child, even if not entirely logical.
Also, there is a vast difference in the two cases you cite
Adrian Peterson allegedly beat his 4-year-old son with a stick, hitting him in his scrotum and breaking the skin. That child was defenseless.
I don’t think we should lionize her but I wont judge this woman too harshly either.
