The footage of the fatal shooting of Alex Jeffrey Pretti, said one journalist, “shows that the final act of his life was trying to help a woman who was being physically assaulted by the masked agents who would then kill him.”

In the original video of the shooting of a man in Minneapolis, identified by the Minneapolis Star Tribune at 37-year-old Alex Jeffrey Pretti, a woman in a pink coat was seen in the background filming the incident with her phone.

Drop Site News obtained footage that appeared “to come from the direction of the woman in pink filming from the sidewalk” and showed the shooting at a closer distance than the footage taken from inside Glam Doll Donuts.

In the video, the shooting victim, dressed in a brown coat and pants, is seen filming a federal agent with his phone. He’s then seen guiding another person toward the sidewalk as the agent forcefully shoves a third person to the ground.

    How’s that going so far? You have a 34 time convicted felon for a president sending his fascist goon squads out to murder people in the streets and none of your precious fucking lawyers have done jack shit about it.

          I may agree with you if over the past 5 years the term “fascist” hadn’t been deluted more than a dive bar’s $0.50 draft beer.

            These are armed, masked government goons slaughtering civilians in the streets in a widespread terror campaign orchestrated by your criminal warlord president wherein various people labeled “undesirables” by your fascist government are disappeared to concentration camps and “deported” to prisons in other countries they have no connection to.

            If Hell existed, you would meet all your German pals in the deepest, darkest, coldest layer.

              10/10 exaggeration of the circumstances; and the situations you’re describing are being exasperated by the population illegal obstructing legal law enforcement operations. You’re making it sound like Vlad the Impaler raised Hitler and his Nazi army from the dead and they’re roaming the streets eating liberal babies.

              Again, your time to fight the government is in the courts. If you want change, fight them in the courts. If you want violence and conflict then keep up the obstruction.

                  They are my guy. They’re just not looking through your warped glasses of protecting illegal immigrants from being lawfully removed from the county.

                There is no exaggeration, it is a sober recount of the facts of the situation we’re currently in. This is how history will record this period, and you will be one of the many nameless fascists condemned by future generations.

                  , it is a sober recount of the facts of the situation we’re currently in.

                  It’s not sober at all, it’s an incredibly recent, heated, emotional take as per usual on these hyper political issues.

                  The emotional charge is more responsibility for these terrible occurances than policy or enforcement.

                    incredibly recent,

                    I’ve been telling you that Trump is a fascist who wants to do this shit since 2015. Nothing recent about it, you’re just a fascist.

        It’s different when they are actively murdering us. This is an urgent crisis, imagine a violent gang was roaming and blatantly murdering people and abducting children in a city and the government called them heroes? And a decent amount of the local police are friends with that gang. Courts and trials are important also but we need to use whatever means we have to prevent or slow the killing if we have the ability to.

          No one is actively murdering you when you’re the one creating the aggressive situations. Stop obstructing law enforcement officers, it’s dangerous and illegal. Fight them in court.

            Immigrants are dying and being abused in camps, and being shot and beaten when apprehened, which is why people are filming them, Ranee Good and Alex Pretti weren’t obstructing or creating an aggressive situation, and anyone who suggests they were can go fuck themselves to hell.

              Ranee Good and Alex Pretti

              Were creating a hostile situation where ICE agents are forced to play defensive crowd control rather than doing their job. It’s a terrible situation, especially Petti who apparently did nothing but be in the wrong place at the wrong time, but they contributed to their own harm.

              If you take your convertible into a bad neighborhood and leave the keys on the dashboard; don’t ask me to feel bad when it gets stolen.

              fuck themselves to hell.

              Why would I when the left is already doing a fine job.
