ICE Officer Kills Motorist In Minneapolis
- Thread starter Its On A Slab
- Start date
There are 2-3 initial shots. The agents start to scatter. The victim isn't moving.
So they pump 7-8 more rounds into him at close range.

From the NYT:
Videos Show Moments in Which Agents Killed a Man in Minneapolis
Federal authorities said the slain man, Alex Pretti, had approached agents with a gun. But videos show Mr. Pretti was holding his phone, not a weapon, when they pulled him to the ground.
My god what absolutely shameless boldface lies!!
I’ve watched every video now and the only thing in his hand is his phone recording them.
He tried to help women and shield them from these thugs.
He turned his face as he got sprayed and really only made back peddling defensive movements.
They took him to the ground and pounded on him and both his hands were visible and outstretched in front as he was held down.
They found the gun and took it and then executed him like a rabid dog in a back alley.
Just stop with the LYING!!!
This crap is MADDENING.
AOC: "An ICE officer had violently pushed a woman to the ground and he had come over to help get her up and that is what precipitated this incident that very quickly led to an execution in the streets. What we are seeing here is a momentous pivotal moment for the United States."
AOC might not be everyone's favorite person, but she is 100% correct in this case. This was murder by the government - a government that is now, without question, trying to cover it up. Who in the world voted for this?
I just saw a new slowed down version that really shows the final moments.
The agent in Gray visible from the other angle has just removed the firearm and the other agents sort of let the guy up and the 1st agent who fired backs up to angle to just unload on the unarmed guy and the rest fire on him for good measure.
They used the excuse of him legally owning a firearm to justify just executing him for daring to stand up for another human against their tactics.
Where is the outrage from the Second Amendment folks??
US citizens have the right to bear arms (and this was legal bearing) and they still just straight murdered him when he did not threaten them in any way with deadly intentions.
Like many "I don't like Trump" conservatives and libertarians, their antipathy toward Democrats outweighs most anything else.
Yes, put away.
He wasn't pointing at them.
He was pointing a PHONE at them.
Also not true.
They DID disarm this individual.
No warrant, no questions, just started acting like thugs.
Noem showed more mercy to that dog she killed than ICE did Alex Pretti.
Ah, yes, he was a domestic terrorist James Bond guy and his phone was "really" an AR-15, am I right?
The one criticism I would have of Pretti here (setting aside the fact that YES, he could) is that taking any kind of gun to a protest of people WHO HAVE ALREADY KILLED SOMEONE IN YOUR CITY isn't exactly the wisest choice to make.
(and before anyone even tries, NO, of course he didn't deserve to be shot for it; I'm discussing the wisdom of the choice, not the legality).
Charlie Kirk, Twitter post on March 3, 2018: The 2nd amendment is not for hunting, it is not for self protection. It is there to ensure that free people can defend themselves if god forbid government became tyrannical and turned against its citizens.
I am amazed at the difference in commentary depending on the political perspective of the commentator. This reminds me of the Civil Rights demonstrations and the too often police response.
Lord have mercy...
Lord have mercy...
As someone who has worked and trained around law enforcement I can tell you that a big part of the issue is recruitment and training. Then corruption up top.
What I find most concerning is that 2020 revealed republicans care more about cops than teachers and nurses. It’s to the point that I do fear we as a nation would support a true fascist regime if it carried a cross draped with the American flag.
AG BONDI on the Minneapolis shooting: “Why this has happened in Minneapolis is because you have a mayor, you have a governor, who has declared Minneapolis a sanctuary city — saying bring your worst of the worst to Minneapolis. You're invited here. We will protect you.”
In an administration overflowing with despicable liars and idiots, Pam Bondi manages to distinguish herself.
and they all consider themselves to be christian and undertaking the will of christ (which coincidentally is the same as the will of the mango moron) on earth
Today showed it too.
The Deceased was literally an ICU Nurse and he was murdered and they are trying to lie about it and cover it up despite the video evidence.
Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump. Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.
