I have yet to hear a single MAGA supporter say that this, or the shooting if Renee Good, was wrong. Not one..not publicly, and none of the MAGA people I know.

To me, it shows this - Dems are still capable of exercising independent thought and critical reasoning. Yes, they abhorred what Charlie Kirk stood for, but they also thought it was wrong to murder him. Both things could exist at the same time.

MAGA genuinely does not seem capable of that level of independent thought. It should not be hard for someone to watch these videos and say, "yes, this was messed up." It doesn't have to mean you don't support Trump. Just acknowledging that what happened in this instance was not ok. But they can't, no matter how plain the evidence. It's like their brains are literally not able to disagree with their leader. It's both sad and scary. And I genuinely don't know how we as a country recover and get back to normal function ever again.


Well, I voted for Trump twice. I didn't really vote for him as much as I voted against Clinton and Harris.

The Good shooting was a bad shooting. Didn't have to happen. He could have moved.

The Pretti shooting is bad because it was a mistake. I don't belive they wanted to shoot him. They were trying to subdue him, "Gun" was yelled and was present, Gray coat runs away with it and accidentally discharges it. That shot prompts the agents to open up.

All of it was wrong, but heres the thing. Good and Pretti were both absolute idiots inviting disaster. None of this would have happened if they didnt insert themselves.

This will continuwe to happen. There will be more. The choice is up to the protestors. ICE isnt going anywhere.


Our government can choose to change how ICE proceeds, stop lying about their statistics, train them better, hold them accountable for poor behavior, and actually focus on criminals rather than just brown people.

Heck even the libertarian Cato Institute has pointed out that DHS lies about primarily targeting criminals and lies about their data!

https://www.cato.org/blog/new-data-prove-dhs-lied-about-cato-report-ice

Both killers were veteran ICE and DHS. We can't better train our way of of this. Ro Kanna had some good proposals. Eventually, both need to be shrunk wildly. Why the heck is DHS even operating in the US interior?

You're dodging that like a kid dodging a ball in 80s gym class.

PP asked: why do folks like Proud Boys bring their guns for protests all the time [and not get shot in the back]?

If we can't exercise our Constitutional rights without fear of the the government killing us for doing so, we don't actually have those rights.


Amen. People like PP think cold blooded murder of peaceful protesters is okay. It goes against everything this country used to stand for.


They will rationalize this awful behavior to not have to admit who and what they are continuing to support.


Uhhh, I 100% support the collection and deportation of people that aren't supposed to be here. Make no mistake there. To be clear- you think Laken Riley's killer should have been here?


This ICE invasion is barely even about Immigration anymore. It’s about constitutional rights and those rights being pushed to the absolute limits.

To help the woman who fell on the ice. To protect her from being pepper sprayed point blank in the face. He was acting like a real man, a hero. Not surprising given his background as a VA nurse.

There isn't actually any proof that the deceased's gun discharged. That is a right wing theory to try to attempt to cover for a truly deplorable action and result.


I'm not subscribing to any right wing theorys, OK? I'm sharing my conclusion from watching the video 50 times. I'm open to being wrong, but the fact remains is he brought a pistol and 40 rounds of ammo to a 'peaceful' protest. It's stupid decision even if he was entitled to do it. If he didn't have that gun on him he'd be alive today. Dont act surprised if you get burnt playing with fire. It's simple, really.


Then why do folks like Proud Boys bring their guns for protests all the time?


Can you imagine the outcry if the Capital police had mown down all the insurrectionists carrying weapons on J6?

These hypocrites are insufferable.


Do you even recognize the irony in your statement? I bet you think the Babbit shooting was clean, don't you?


DP. She was *actually* there with a violent mob threatening to hurt people, and was warned multiple times to stop advancing. Yes, I think it was a clean and justified shooting.

It's funny to watch you get angered by the idea of armed Proud Boys, but contort yourself to insist it was NBD for Pretti to be carrying an Sig and 40 rounds of ammo. You know and I know it.


PP is pointing out the inconsistency. It’s blatantly hypocritical to excuse Pretti’s murder when J6ers were pardoned, when Rittenhouse was acquitted, when proud boys attend events armed.

Being stupid, if that's how you want to label it, is not illegal. The federal agents should be better trained and better equipped to handle situations with civilians. They are failing at their jobs. Civilians are allowed to be stupid and they are allowed to make mistakes. If you're going to carry a gun for our government, you don't get to make mistakes that end with dead civilians without consequences. It can have been an accident (it wasn't), but there still must be accountability and consequences. And our government should not be making excuses for it. End of story.

Your last statement is the understatement of the decade. They are evil incarnate. I didn't used to believe in the Anti-Christ...but now...
