Didn't deserve to die. He should have been smarter when carrying a gun in not confronting LEOs physically attacking them. These people are defending illegal alien criminals which include child rapist by interfering preventing Fed LEOs from enforcing the law. How effing crazy is that! It's like we're living in bizzarro world.

Minnesota firearms owner group issues statement: "We are deeply concerned"


The Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus has issued the following statement on the fatal shooting of a man who federal officials say was carrying a firearm:

"We are deeply concerned by this morning's reports that a federal law enforcement operation in Minneapolis resulted in the fatal shooting of 37-year-old Alex Pretti by federal agents. According to local officials, the man was legally armed, a firearm was recovered at the scene, and he is believed to have been a lawful gun owner and permit to carry holder.

"Many critical facts remain unknown.

"We do not yet have an independent account of what initiated the encounter or what triggered the use of deadly force. Despite widespread speculation regarding intent, there has been no evidence produced indicating an intent to harm the officers. We are calling for a full and transparent investigation by both state and federal authorities.

"Every peaceable Minnesotan has the right to keep and bear arms—including while attending protests, acting as observers, or exercising their First Amendment rights. These rights do not disappear when someone is lawfully armed, and they must be respected and protected at all times."

No. Isolated incident.

Care to guess how many illegals have been arrested in Florida? And how many "mostly peaceful protests" and interference of ICE agents there have been there?

He was disarmed first. Then shot dead.

We don't have all the facts. All we have is what has been posted so far on X.

Notice how red states are not rioting over ICE and BP enforcing immigration law? Hell Texas has millions of democrats all clustered in the big cities yet no rioting I wonder why?

Maybe because the Governors of those red states don't incite the population and democrat mayors of these cities inside red states know better than to cross republican governors.

Or, in the case of AZ, as we will soon see, an incompetent State AG giving a tacit "OK" to shoot ICE agents under this state's 'Stand your ground" laws. And I assure you, someone is going to do just that.

I'm planning to stay out of the Phoenix and Tucson metro areas for the next few weeks. Should I do need to go down, preparations will be a little different than normal.

Blue cities under red states quiet. Blue cities under blue states out of control.

Could it be the democrat politicians are inciting..... YES!

The cucks can't comprehend this logic. Democrats are purposely usurping federal immigration law by declaring sanctuary cities for illegals and preventing fed LEOs from enforcing the law. They use their civilian agitators that are on the payroll to prevent child rapist illegal aliens from getting arrested. I think Minnesota is bit difference because of the huge fraud scandal by democrat politicians in that state that they are using this to distract from their scandal however I think this would be happening in Portland Oregon since these are strongholds for white woke and aggressive democrats.

well I guess you haven't bothered to check. Anti ICE Agitators are active in Texas, Florida, Kansas and several other RED states. The only difference is no one has been shot and killed in a red state so far.

he didn't 'confront' LEO or physically attack them. The ICE agent initiated contact by pepper spraying Pretti while Pretti was trying to help a women to her feet.

Oh puhleeze! To compare Texas, Florida and other red states to Minnesota is at best disingenuous. But nice try I think you know that blue cities in blue states are out of control and blame goes to democrat politicians and their professional rioters especially in Minnesota as that states governor is being investigated for fraud.

Just wait when Orange man goes into California with the feds the same cht will take place and that is democrats and the professional rioter/protestor protecting illegal alien criminals by obstructing LEOs from performing their lawful duty which is a felony.

uninformed BS, I live in red state. I have seen anti ICE protests and agitators and many people have been arrested for interfering with ICE enforcement. The difference is ICE operations have surged in Minnesota in terms of agent volume, the highest in the country.Also, the mode of operation in Minnesota is 'at large' arrest vs custodial enforcement in RED states. In Minnesota ICE agents go into communities to find illegal aliens while in RED states ICE use local law enforcement to take illegal immigrants into custody. When Federal agents go into communities where people don't know and trust them you will see push back from the community.

I would stop arguing with yahoo that thinks Federal Force impeding a State Government is a good thing. Bear in mind, he also thinks the US should become a uniparty dictatorship while detesting China (which is the same thing he wants to go to); you'd probably be better off saving your breath on this with him.
