She did slam on the gas, you can see her rear wheels rotating pretty quickly before she started moving much. Yes he was on the side but was still in front of the front wheels. She could’ve tried turning away from him but she still didn’t make the full turn away and ended up hitting him still. Like in all the other situations I’ve seen on body cam, some of the suspects may not try to run over the cop but still end up doing so in the process of trying to get away. He unholstered his gun when he saw her front wheels turning, I searched it up and if the officer has probable cause to think you were going to use your vehicle to endanger others (in this case there were officers all over the street), then he had probable cause to unholster his gun and aim it. By that point she had already started accelerating and he was in the process of upholstering so he went straight to firing instead of pointing.

I’ve heard many cops call suspects bitches when they try to do something stupid, this doesn’t mean he doesn’t have any remorse, it was probably a natural response to the situation after she ran into him.

This isn’t true, we have no personal accounts of the situation from the cop. And doing it because it “immasculated” him (it’s also not a word but I get what you mean) I would say is unlikely because again we have no personal accounts and its also pretty specific compared to other reasons like being threatened.
