Latest Minneapolis shooting

[Nature Boy 2.0 8,526]

Am I expected to believe some ICU nurse randomly goes to a ICE protest with a 9mm, and gets whacked after being disarmed.  As a 15 year VET of this forum, there has to be more to the story.

Let me introduce you to Kyle Rittenhouse -> 

 

"Shall not be infringed"

 

But other than that, let's get the story right. Alex Pretti was an ICU nurse at the VA, he was a federal worker.

 

He was sprayed for trying to help a woman get up after ICE knocked her down

He was hit and tackled while he had his hands up

He was pummeled repeatedly in the face with a canister while his hands were on the ground, not fighting at all

His legal firearm was taken from his holster

Then he was shot in the back, and shot about 9 more times

 

That's murder. Plain and simple. But go ahead everyone, post the conspiracy theories. MN is a open carry state btw.

not necessarily.  he could have been a contract hire.

And the right called Rittenhouse a hero bringing a rifle to that situation. But back to the 2A, "Shall not be infringed" are we gonna act like concealed carry and open carry in an open carry state an issue now?

 

 

 

And no he was not a contract hire. He was a federal worker working as a ICU nurse at the VA.

 

And he (Alex Pretti) was murdered by DHS. What's next in the excuse mill?

It's a shame that anyone has to die, but it's again obvious that it's far safer to stand aside holding a protest sign than to insert oneself into ongoing enforcement operations.

You want to point where in the video where Alex Pretti was "inserting oneself into an ongoing enforcement operation"?

But I guess that's why he should get shot 10 times? Right?

[TBoneTX 49,032]

It's a shame that anyone had to die.  He'd be alive if he'd stood aside holding a protest sign.

So now you're just reverting to Alex Pretti deserved those 10 shots to the back because he was holding a phone? What's gonna be your reaction when ICE shoots and kills another American for holding a protest sign?

 

Call a spade a spade, this was murder.

[TBoneTX 49,032]

I didn't say that.

Alex Pretti holding a protest sign or recording with a phone would've not changed the outcome. Both are First Amendment rights.

 

If he was holding a protest sign in that situation he still:

He was hit and tackled while he had his hands up

He was pummeled repeatedly in the face with a canister while his hands were on the ground, not fighting at all

His legal firearm was taken from his holster

Then he was shot in the back, and shot about 9 more times

 

DHS murdered this person, and those officers need to be charged.

[TBoneTX 49,032]

We'll see what happens when the investigations are complete.

The investigating officer was the one who fired the first shot and thus we've investigated ourselves and found no wrongdoing. Now bow to your emperor

Yeah, that is not how investigations work, but feel free to believe the first thing you see on X, Bluesky, or from the MSM, I will do my own research.

 

The Rittenhouse analogy just shows how out-of-touch the extremist left are.  Rittenhouse was not protesting, he was protecting property from the unhinged extremist left who has no problem with infringing on other’s rights.

 

Lastly, again I will ask (not expecting an answer), why is this just happening in Minneapolis?

odd, i've seen emails telling federal workers NOT to be around demonstrations like this............
