Alex Jeffrey Pretti, 37.
No criminal history. A lawful gun owner with a valid conceal carry permit.
I haven’t commented on any of the content of this story until now.
Pay very close attention the the ‘agent’ wearing the grey coat, with his back to the camera before he turns around and walks towards it holding a gun.
He goes in hands empty, retrieves the gun from the suspects waistband, at the small of his back, and leaves before the first shot is fired.
Every shot was fired, by federal agents, at an unarmed individual. Plain murder.
/edit:
multiple angles synced up together (this ones being updated as new angles come in)
Dude was getting curb stomped and head smashed in by a blunt object before the shooting… So my question is simple… If a gang of masked men, who outnumber you 7:1, and are literally smashing your head in with “non-lethal” crowd management devices and causing life altering injuries while you are pinned down under thread of death, why wouldn’t self defence be justified? I’m not saying the gun was his, or that he had control of it, or that he even fired it, but I am saying if ICE is doing this to people why shouldn’t they defend themselves. Black Panthers just got some recruiting. Arm yourselves and openly carry. It’s your right so use it.
Let’s go further than that. If you know that you will be killed if you don’t resist, and you will certainly be killed if you resist while they’ve already started… maybe you shouldn’t lie down and not resist, and you definitely shouldn’t let them start in the first place.
hell, maybe you need some friends to back you up and start some bullet dancing to get those thugs off your back.
Best Americans can do is stand around and bitch, unfortunately. I want to be proven otherwise, still waiting for the proof though.
