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.

    Watch the guy with jeans and grey jacket on top of the victim. He knew what was about to happen.

    This was inevitable and there will be more until ICE goes home or until the protesters give up.

      I really can’t make out what is happening from that potato camera video. It looks like ICE fired all shots, multiple agents.

      Thank you, this is the first video I’ve seen of the start of the interaction. It’s a little hard to tell, but it doesn’t look like the victim ever drew his gun. Bovino claimed in a press conference that ICE believed he had threatened ICE with his gun, which I’m currently doubting.

        I wouldn’t believe a fucking word of armed terrorists. Trump straight lied in the Whitehouse about Goode’s murder, even after watching the video together with reporters. “Internal bleeding” my ass.

        There’s another video that shows a man in a tan jacket standing up from and walking away from the dogpile immediately before the first shot. He has a pistol with a holographic sight mounted on the slide, pointed at the ground. This appears to be the victim’s pistol.

        It is the 15MB file, starting with AA67, in this Proton Drive

        It appears that this officer disarmed the victim, then discharged the victim’s weapon into the pavement. This appears to be the first round fired.

          This is the one that needs to be at the top. Someone posted this below, so yes, AA67 definitely shows grey guy taking the victims gun before the execution happens.

            we get it he had a gun, but why did the gray-coat not indicate to them that he’s been disarmed? They just shouted “Gun…Gun…”, then that ill-trained trigger-happy lowlife who shot him literally pushed the grey-coat agent away before shooting him in the back. I can’t believe he did not realize that he was disarmed. There is no excuse

          So they took his gun and executed him with his own gun?

          Edit: okay, it’s pretty clear that one of the thugs disarmed the victim and fired a shot into the pavement as he was leaving, and a second later the victim was brutally shot to kill by other thugs.

          I bet this was all on purpose - the shot to the pavement from the victim’s gun was so they could claim the victim fired the first shot and killing him was in self defense.

            I highly doubt it was intentional. That would require a certain degree of competence that is entirely lacking here. From the agent’s initial and unecessary provocation, to the escalation with pepper spray, to the vicious attack on a compliant subject, there is no evidence of competency here. That the officer handling the victim’s weapon lacked the most basic weapons handling skills seems on par.

              I’m not really seeing your point. Why is competence a prerequisite for premeditated murder? Especially since they actually fucked up and got caught on video.

                Hanlon’s Razor. Incompetence adequately explains everything that happened here, and is, IMO, much more damaging. A competent group of conspirators can be brought under control. An incompetent group can’t help but continue fucking up, time and time again.

                The latter is much more dangerous.

    They will keep doing this at this point. Strongly worded letters and asking the collective of white supremacists who said empathy is a sin is not going to change their minds. RIP the victim. Republicans should be socially exiled from society.

      All MAGA should have a T branded on their forehead so everyone they ever meet knows exactly who they’re talking to. All ICE agents should be sent to prison for the rest of their life, but also be gifted a 6ft length of rope. They can do whatever they want with that rope.

        Maybe instead of a branded “T” they could wear yellow armbands and we could make a series of camps to keep them in for the long term. Is this just another case of history repeating? /s

            You went there with tentative little footsteps, I just pushed it further down the road. Yet another case of history repeating. Prisons. Camps. To-may-toe. To-mah-toe. Armbands. Scratched “T” tattoos. Po-tay-toes. Po-tah-toes. I’m not sure you are sincere in your interest.

              I meant every word I said. These people should be walking freely with a branded T on their foreheads so people will forever know who they’re talking to. YOU went the extra step by saying that’s comparable to fucking death camps?!?! If anything I was being merciful, the world might actually be better off without them. But I’m kind enough to let them continue to participate in society, only so that they come with a visible warning to the kinder majority.

              Then you walk in and suggest “Might as well put them in death camps then.” You sure you’re not a fascist? Either you are because you feel threatened by people being able to identify you as such, or because ideas such as death camps come awfully easy to you. Either way, thanks for identifying yourself to us.

                Us? I didn’t know I was dealing with a pack. I stand alone and stand by my own statement(s). “Thanks for identifying yourself to us” sounds so Nazi (but I’m sure you carry a lot of moral outrage with you). Anyway, good luck with all that conflict.

        Let them off themselves that easily? Why show more mercy to them than an ordinary criminal? These are high treason domestic terrorists who execute anyone who has even a bit of good in them.

        Trump supporters should not be allowed to pay taxes, recieve any social services, and police should not respond to their distress calls. They should all be shoved into a single piece of land, and left to fend for themselves like the animals they are. Their very own sociopathic dystopia.

        I don’t get your thought process.

        1. I’m not an American. You can say “Are we doing XY now?” in the English language as a “looking down” way of saying “Are you serious?” without being part of that group…
        2. I’m obviously talking about the Mullah dictatorship that has recently murdered protesters and they are less than 500k people (incl. revolutionary gard corps), which is like 0.01% of the whole population of Asia, so they are a really bad representation of “Asians” as a whole.

          Your brain jerks to “look at these evil Muslims” when something obviously western happens in the west. Militarized police terrorizing minorities is literally as USA/European as it gets.

          My thought process is that measuring repression using “le evil regime from another culture” is at its core a racist thing to do.

            Why exactly do you want to label the Mullah dictatorship as “Asians” or “Muslims” and not just as the “Mullah dictatorship”? When I think about Mullahs, I think about dictators or about “death” or about “shooting protesters”, not about random Asians or random Muslims.

            My thought process is that measuring repression using “le evil regime from another culture” is at its core a racist thing to do.

            That does not make any sense and is the weirdest description of racism I have heard in a long time.

            Militarized police terrorizing minorities is literally as USA/European as it gets.

            In which year do you live right now? Thousands of people were murdered by the Mullahs within the last few weeks… I’m from Germany. Can you please tell me what the “military police” in my country is called and when they killed Thounsands of people…? Keep in mind: I myself live in 2026, not in 1940…

              The police in your country are fascist pigs too. They routinely beat up pro-palestinian protestors without consequence, it’s just that your state outsources the violence to Israel by supporting the genocide of Palestinians. The German regime is currently suggesting compulsory military service, funding literal Nazi arms manufacturers like Rheinmetall, and actively silencing dissenting journalists by removing their bank accounts and prosecuting anyone who hires them or donates money to them. Moreover, there is rampant far-right activity and nothing is done about it. I used to live in Germany up to a few years ago, and one time I celebrated my birthday at home and my friends couldn’t make it in time because a Nazi parade was blocking the trams.

              How about we talk of the regime actively suppressing the people’s democratic will, like when people have a referendum to cap rents in Berlin but the supreme court rejects it (Mietendeckel)? How about the same happening with the referendum to expropriate housing that passed in 2021 and nothing has come of it yet?

                Great… Generalization is always the best way to make a good discourse impossible.

                Nazi arms manufacturers like Rheinmetall

                With that logic, our whole public transport system (Deutsche Bahn) is Nazi stuff…


                Very interesting to read you comment of you mentioning actual and non-actual problems in my country and that you don’t understand that the “regime” and the supreme court are not the same thing, but what’s the point? I live here. I know this country. You can also mention homelessness, CumEx, Staatsverschuldung, etc… But weren’t we just talking about the f*cking Mullah dicatorship that killed Thousands of protestors within a few weeks? If this is your picture of Germany, it’s fortunately far from the truth.

        Over 500 of the dead were agents of the government. Iran doesn’t even have a 2A. How many government agents have you Americans gotten this far with your guns? 0? And how many of you will be murdered by government agents if/when government agents are killed? Iran is just a couple of steps ahead of you.
