WAKE UP AMERICA!!

State rights cannot violate federal laws, sorry stay in your lane and help deport them this will be over

This is rapist talk.

Also, no. That’s not true.

Now, please, pedo rapist, STFU.

They are here to perform the mission of deporting all illegals. Once that is over things will be fine. If you choose to help it will go faster.

then why are the deporting people with green cards and people going through the legal system?

A condition of keeping your green card is no criminal activity. They are going after those people.

You are moving the goalposts. I thought they were only supposed to be removing the undocumented people here illegally. But no, they are removing people who had TPS status (here legally) and people who sought asylum at a point of entry and are/were awaiting their hearing (here legally) and green card holders (here legally) and visa holders (here legally) and shooting US citizens.

Where is there any proof that green card holders being removed are/were criminals? Someone above cited the CATO link...and CATO ain't no left wing think tank.

Do they even need the felony murder statute to charge them all?

Standing in the street to block people/vehicles is not peaceful protests. There’s a longer video that shows him refusing to move, any reference to it here gets removed.

Try actually linking the video in question instead of just telling us a tall tale about it?

It’s been linked a few time, gets deleted. He’s in the road, they ask him to move, he refuses, tells others to refuse. It’s why they push people at the beginning of the video you see. They didn’t walk up to people and push them for no reason.

Stop lying and making things up. The videos (multiple videos, from different angles) show the agents pushing him and a woman on the side of the road. They push the woman into a small snowbank on the curb and she and Alex are slipping on the snow. They were not in the road obstructing anything when the attack happened. Also, there is no audio of what Alex or the woman are saying. But anyone with eyes can see from their body language as clearly depicted in the videos that they were trying to get away from the agents.

Ask yourself why you are so desperate to believe and propagate lies that are easily refuted.

Those videos cut off the previous 10 seconds? Why? Because it’s the time showing them in the road..

According to Noem, he came at agents with his gun. Are you calling her a liar?

This directly contradicts sworn testimony from people who witnessed the murder. Put Kristi Noem under oath and see if she still says this is what happened.

He has been doing this 8 years and presumably hasn't killed someone in cold blood before, at least in public. Not a new recruit with no training. So what was he thinking? I am not trying to justify anything. Just purely curious.

Also, other than trying to block the appropriation bills, which doesn't sound like it would do much anyways, what else can democrats do?

And can Minneapolis bring charges against this guy (and the last guy?). I know feds are not cooperating but can they legally prosecute? It seems in this case, there is plenty of evidence to convict.

When the deceased man was struggling with federal agents, one of the agents saw his gun and yelled “gun”. I believe one of the agents removed the deceased man’s gun during the struggle, but not all of the agents knew that. When the agents are searching the man’s body after he passed, one of them is heard asking “where’s the gun?”

These are trying to do a dangerous job and have protestors/rioters constantly in their faces. They were faced with a man resisting arrest who possessed a gun. I believe that was their mindset.

You need to STOP. This did not happen. The shooter was right next to the agent to took the gun from the victim's back. He was RIGHT NEXT TO HIM. He saw everything and then proceeded to shoot the victim three times in the back. That is murder. Here. Watch for yourself.

Don't forget arresting and detaining US citizens with no record, like the guy who was forced from his home in his underwear.

The overwhelming majority have no criminal records.

Again with the easily refuted lies.

If this "overwhelming majority" have no criminal record, then they have nothing to worry about. Apparently that is not panning out to be the case. And yes, fraud in MN, i.e. stealing from the taxpayers, counts as "criminal activity."

That fraud in Minnesota was perpetuated by a white lady and has mostly been overblown/debunked.

But protesting what?
These protesters were protesting immigration enforcement from the get-go, before things escalated.
Now 2 people have died and the shooters have not been held accountable or shootings investigated. THAT is worth protesting.
But not lawful immigration enforcement, ugly as it may be.

Wrong. they were protesting the tactics that changed under Bovino/Noem/Trump. This wasn't an issue under Biden. ICE are the ones who excalate, because they are not trained in the tactics they are trying to employ.

The rioters escalate by insulting and obstructing our federal law enforcement agents. The rioters interfere with the performance of their jobs.

The only tactic that changed from Biden to Trump is that ICE agents are now enforcing federal immigration laws instead of nullifying it. ICE agents didn’t arrest anyone during Biden’s open borders disaster. Biden wasn’t interested in immigration enforcement, just ushering millions of illegal immigrants into the country and giving them taxpayer funded benefits.

Wrong. Their job is NOT to grab brown people off the street. Their job is to be in an office and figure out WITH DATA who is undocumented. Then, they are to see if these people are wanted for violent crimes. (Which boggles the mind if you pause here because if the police are good at their jobs, they’d already be behind bars. And, if ICE had done their jobs, they’d be on a plane upon their release.)

Then, they are supposed to get a warrant, go to their home and detain them, then provide them a hearing. If a judge rules deportation we send them back to their home country.

That IS ICE’s job.

You do realize that is exactly what they were doing here, right? Why did Pretti interfere?

From CNN: agents were conducting a targeted operation against an undocumented immigrant “wanted for violent assault,” when an “individual approached US Border Patrol officers

How exactly did he interfere? Let’s think this through…

He was killed in front of what looks like a storefront. Was he standing in front of this alleged criminal’s front door?

WTF you ghouls will believe any convenient lie. How about you use your brain today.

There is footage of him before the shooting directing SUVs to form a barricade on the street. This is what prompted the federal officers to him in the first place. He was actively impeding and obstructing these officers, which is a felony. Oh, and he also did not have an ID on him (wonder why?), which is a condition to carry guns in MN.

Keep going, this is so pathetically desperate that it’s only helping us out

Oh look Murderous MAGA Margie showed up with her Mr. Green. Always simping for a grossly colored man.

I was replying to a maga moron making laughably improbably excuses for the murderer.

What about the stealing from the taxpayers that Senator Scott from Florida perpatrated? Or the fraud Trump and his family conducted? I guess some fraud is ok, right?

Great that someone in charge of law enforcement is clueless (or lying) about what the law is.

And these hypocritical republicans are the ones pushing for concealed and open carry laws!

[Anonymous]

Trump officials continued to label Mr. Pretti a domestic terrorist, despite video evidence showing that he never drew his concealed pistol and was restrained and disarmed before agents fired shots into his back and then his body after he slumped to the ground. Gregory Bovino, the commander of President Trump’s Border Patrol operations, said on CNN’s “State of the Morning” that the agents who opened fire were the “real victims.”

[Anonymous]

Interesting that MN has extremely low levels of ICE activity (as compared with states like CA, AZ, TX, FL) yet so very many issues. Protestors, injuries, incidents etc. Why??

I live in a very blue area (all Democratic gov, US Senators, Mayor, local government etc) that is majority brown, 30min from the Mexican border, see border patrol and/or ICE in town daily and we have absolutely NONE of these issues. No protestors (beyond a few people quietly holding signs), no major news stories, no dramas, property damage, people interfering or getting hurt.

What is the deal with Minnesota????

[Anonymous]

Note...the dad of the 5 year old had no criminal record and yet, was apprehended.

MAGA is simply full of lies, from Trump on down to the racists in this thread who want to justify authoritarianism.

Y'all are the problem. You might destroy what is left of our country in this process, but there are more of us than you and you all assume liberals don't have guns...proceed at your own peril.
