Did Pretti act lawfully?

I don’t believe he did…

 

[rightwinger]

ICE Overreacted and killed a man

It's a marginal case but in the long run, Pretti played with fire and got burned.
He had no business being in the middle of that. While armed. While not having ID on him. He was a brainwashed leftist who was on the edge of madness.

 

[Fang]

Pretti was no doubt complicit in his own death. He was armed and interfering with federal activity. He was not peaceful. Pretti was interfering, attacking and destroying property each time he showed up.

 

[shockedcanadian]

His death was unnecessary.

That said, he was not a teenager, should he not have appreciated that the risk/reward continuum was not leaning in his favor in these situations?

R.I.P. There are too many working parts, too many forces influencing, funding and encouraging certain behaviours. Trump was elected on immigration and Americans want the process of deciding who is worthy of entering the U.S, it must NOT be decided by foreign sources looking to bankrupt America and replace you.

At no point in time did this guy ever consider that the police have a responsibility to behave appropriately or lawfully.

Pretti violated section 111 of title 18 of the U.S. Code. That's illegal.

It was a bad shoot. But I don't think it was a malicious act on the part of the agents.

The one that yelled "gun, gun", must have thought he had seen one.

Well, the guy presents a very well thought out, rational, and factual account, so, no leftist will agree with him.

What a fucked up piece of propaganda. Pretti wasn't being confrontational, the ICE agents were. He was trying to help a woman who was being pepper sprayed. Then he was pepper sprayed and assaulted by half a dozen thugs, disarmed after never drawing his gun, and shot in the back multiple times.

Walter puts the burden on Pretti to de-escalate the situation because he was armed. Yet puts no burden on the ICE thugs not to shoot a man who did nothing but try to protect a woman being physically abused by an ICE thug.

If you can come to the conclusion anything Pretti did that day justified him being executed you've lost any any sense of PERSPECTIVE.

Border Patrol. Those weren’t ICE agents.

Wasn’t the guy who yelled “gun gun” the guy who took Pretti’s gun?

Being in the middle of the street surrounded by agents is being confrontational.

I don't know. Thats why we wait before judging.

Liar.

He was trying to help a woman who was being pepper sprayed.

Hence, we was being confrontation, moron.

******* leftists don't have one ounce of common sense.
Jesus.

You guys play with death as easily as river water moves in a direction. While we still have time, stop it. Otherwise, societies stop playing and make it all to real as their system of control tightens a leash around its citizens.

 

[Seymour Flops]

He acted unlawfully, likely intending to provoke a response which the left could criticize.

I am willing to discuss the response of the agents to Pretti's unlawful behavior, and ICE's whole operation in Minnesota, but only with a person reasonable enough to agree with the above statement.

 

[Marener]

Being in the middle of the street surrounded by agents is being confrontational.

The agents came after the citizens. In fact, the agent had to walk all the way across the street just to get the chance to shove a peaceful woman to the ground.

Why aren't we ever allowed to consider the legality of the agent's actions?

 

[toobfreak]

What a fucked up piece of propaganda.

^^^^And just like I predicted.

Pretti wasn't being confrontational,

Nah, he just kept throwing himself into the scrum, breaking vehicles, going out into the street, disobeying directives, getting in people's way fighting with officers.

He was trying to help a woman who was being pepper sprayed.

Not his place to help anyone, besides, that was long after he already got involved.

disarmed after never drawing his gun,

You poor baby. Babbitt was murdered and she didn't even have a gun. Let me hear you defend her.

and shot in the back multiple times.

Too bad, he needed shot in the front too.
Pretti got off light. He deserved so much more.

No, he didn't. He was killed unlawfully though. I think that is now clear. The degree of culpability that the agents bear is now the only question.
