This is what happened
(Fox News) The American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) identified the man fatally shot by a Border Patrol agent in Minneapolis on Saturday as one of its members, Alex Jeffrey Pretti.
Pretti, a 37-year-old Minneapolis resident and ICU nurse, was shot during an immigration enforcement operation early Saturday targeting Jose Huerta-Chuma, an illegal immigrant with a criminal history including domestic assault for intentional conflict bodily harm, disorderly conduct and driving without a valid license.
Homeland Security officials said Pretti approached Border Patrol agents while armed with a 9mm pistol and “violently resisted” when they attempted to disarm him. (snip)
“At this time, many of the details remain unclear,” AFGE wrote in a statement. “Video of the incident is circulating on social media, and the Department of Homeland Security has publicly stated that the victim was brandishing a weapon at officers. However, based on the video currently available, that claim is not clearly established.”
If you’re approaching federal law enforcement agents with a gun, what are you planning to do with it? Even if you legally own it and have a concealed carry permit. What was he going to do with a $1,200 Sig Sauer with modifications? So, of course we get
Minneapolis Mayor’s Ultimatum to Trump, ‘End This Operation, Safety Will Be Restored
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey rushed to a news conference on Saturday within hours of a man being shot and killed by a Border Patrol agent on the city’s south side. The mayor said little to calm Minneapolis residents but did propose an ultimatum to President Donald J. Trump: End your immigration operation, and safety will be restored in the city.
Frey was joined at the podium by Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara and the city’s Emergency Management Director Rachel Sayre. From the start, the trio of city officials acknowledged they had few details of the shooting but were quick to condemn the federal agents involved in the shooting of the armed man early Saturday morning.
Frey’s began his statement saying, “I just saw a video of more than six masked agents pummeling one of our constituents and shooting him to death. The mayor made no mention of the suspect being armed with a 9mm pistol as he approached the agents. Frey next went on to imply federal agents were randomly shooting the city’s residents without cause, asking rhetorically, “How more residents, how many more Americans need to die or get badly hurt for this operation to end?” (snip)
Frey wrapped up with what sounded like an ultimatum to the President implying there will be no restoration of safety until the enhanced immigration enforcement efforts under Trump’s Operation Metro Surge have ended saying, “To President Trump, this is a moment to act like a leader, put Minneapolis, put America first in this moment, let’s achieve peace, let’s end this operation and I’m telling you, our city will come back, safety will be restored.”
Instead of giving criminal illegal aliens up to ICE, along with advising his moonbat base to stay away from federal immigration officers, he entices them to interfere, and even get violent. In this case, Frey uses the heckler’s veto to stop the federal government from enforcing federal law while taking the side of the unhinged, violent protests.
These people are nuts.
Mad King Donald decreed:
HE HAD A GUN, ONLY CRIMINALS CARRY GUNS ON OUR STREETS, WE NEED LAW AND ORDER. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
President DONALD J. TRUMP
Do you agree with him? The Insurrection Act would allow Los Federales to confiscate guns. Ours AND yours.
Misinformation and fear mongering are all you leftists have, Rimjob.
Nobody is asking why this guy was there in the first place?
First Amendment
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
Misinformation and fear mongering are all you leftists have, Rimjob.
And we thought that ICE was after “illegal” aliens, especially the “worst of the worst”.
ICE is Mad King Donald’s federal police. We would expect our conservative brethren and cistern to OPPOSE a federal police force, poorly trained, unidentifible, heavily armed, wearing combat gear, wearing face diapers, killing citizens for carrying their legal personal firearm…
Mad King Donald has suggested canceling the upcoming midterm elections not once, but twice! He says shit like that to gauge the reaction to help guide his actions.
Do you believe we SHOULD suspend the midterms given the ongoing “insurrections”?
More misinformation and fear mongering are all you leftists have, Rimjob.
Your Mad King is coming for your guns!! LOL. The irony…
trump i
And more disinformation and fear mongering from the Rimjob.
Although he might want to disarm this asshole.
Texas, Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Virginia, Arizona, have all had more ICE arrests than Minnesota, but they cooperate with federal law. Funny how there’s no where near the problems in those places compared to Mn….
Your Mad King uses Blue States for his performance “art”.
Funny how you didn’t “verify” your claim.
Too funny-says the person who fails to verify his CO2-global warming claim, but still posts it as true every several days…
You’ve lost. Too funny.
Your Mad King is coming for your guns!! LOL. Ah, the irony…
trump is using your prejudices to serve HIS purposes (e.g., staying out of jail, fluffing his own psyche).
Chaos is his tactic.
Again more misinformation and fear mongering are all you leftists have, Rimjob.
Might try telling the truth instead of agitating.
Does moonbat William carry at work? What if ICE thugs arrived at his work are started dragging out their Hispanic colleagues?
See: Graham v. Connor, 490 U.S. 386 (1989)
Of course, U.S. citizen Mr Pretti, was unarmed at the time he was shot 9-10 times by the poorly trained ICE thugs.
Moonbat William, Mad King Donald, puppykiller Noem and Lil nazi bovino are all gaslighting youse guys.
Of course, you are willing to be gaslighted. You gonna believe your lyin’ eyes or your lyin’ King.
The death of Alex Pretti was a state-sponsored execution of an American citizen, caught on multiple videos. (Imagine the trump ICE story if there had been no videos).
ICE is the Mad King’s Secret Police disguised as immigration agents.
Misinformation and fear mongering are all you leftists have, Rimjob.
Watch the videos and get back to us.
BTW, the inadequately trained ICE Secret Police shot Mr Pretti 9 or 10 times AFTER securing his legal pistol.
You true trump believers should watch all the videos. They may not be shown on FOX.
Should the trump regime ban whistles and cell phones??
Is that White Christian pastor wife of yours praying for your soul today?
With all the lies and fear mongering you’re spreading today you’re gonna need it.
Watch the videos.
