Has nothing to do with the right to protest and carry a gun.
The way the local politicians are elevating things and not allowing ICE to do their job and you decide to go down there with a handgun and two loaded magazine clips….

Your chances of dying just went up dramatically
The Liberals view this as being highly skilled with guns.



I remember the day Cleets posted a photo of his girlfriend holding a rifle. Finger on the trigger and I believe lacking muzzle discipline as well. Got pilloried on the site.

You should tell the people stating that Pretti interfered with / obstructed law enforcement that they should "wait for more video to come out instead of making up a narrative".
Am I having a discussion with them right now? Love your guilt by association fallacy.
You chose to commented on my post(s) but not theirs.

Why? Because you're focused on supporting DHS regardless of what they do and only call out posts that are are or might be critical of DHS. You give the ones that support DHS a pass. Is that a double standard, a lack of integrity, or both?

Do they post on this board? I point out the condition that led to the event. You know, the FAFO conditions.

Why do you support everything but law and order?

You know they do and you overlooked their posts because you agree with and support their agenda. You only call out and apply these "standards" of your to posts that run counter to the MAQA agenda.


I will ask again (and again if needed) ...

How did Pretti interfere with / obstruct law enforcement?
- By being there? No
- By filming? No
- By helping a woman who had been shoved to the ground up? No
- By carrying a weapon with a valid permit? No

So tell us, what exactly did he do to interfere / obstruct law enforcement?

More importantly, what threat did he actually pose to the agents at the time that he was shot?
- Was he still armed? No
- Could he have lunged for his weapon? Doesn't look like it
- Could he have physically overpowered the 7 or so agents who were standing over him? No
- Was he even facing the agents or was his back to the agents?

How do you justify shooting an unarmed man 10+ times?


The state/local prosecutor is likely to ask and/or consider these questions as is the federal judge assigned to the case.

It actually does. If you knew anything about carrying a weapon, the cardinal rule is to NEVER get yourself in a situation in which it will need to be used.

Wearing one and then being aggressive is a sure fire way of getting killed.

I conceal carry only in situations where me and/or my family could get boxed in. Both my children know my rule. Stay behind me and we escape if possible, not fight.

You are also supposed to have your CCL and government ID in your possession as well.
Bingo: Any responsible CCW holder knows:
DO:
-If encounter law enforcement Immediately inform them you have a CCW permit, weapon on you & where it’s at.
-Keep you hands visible
-Don’t reach for anything without being told to or asking 1st, and do it slowly.
-Have your ID & CCW permit on you as required by law in most if not every state).

DON’T:
-Go armed to a violent protest.
-Physically involve yourself in violent protest.
-Physically impede, resist, or fight with law enforcement.

Even if true, the penalty isn’t execution. He was disarmed before they shot him.

You and I don’t know how many times he was shot.

It sounds to me like he was considered to be armed and dangerous, like they had the goods on this guy and they were watching him close …… and then he got stupid.

If your heroes the idiotic protesters wanna raise tensions, you should send them a note and tell them about their chances of dying are going up considerably

"When we're out there, we have no problem with the public watching what we do, filming what we do, talking to us while we do it, but there is that line, though, when they start to impede and get in situations where, frankly, we don't want them to be, we can't have them to be, kind of in our workspace," he told "Fox & Friends Weekend."

He never would have been shot if he didn't put himself in that situation. I'm sorry you can't accept accountability for people putting themselves in bad situations. Ones where people are screaming, using bullhorns, throwing objects, grabbing LE and resisting. You expect a level of discernment that is not humanly possible.

This is like blaming a car driver for hitting a person that ran out in front of them. "How DARE that person not be able to swerve and yield to the pedestrian in that microsecond".

Why are you against following the law?

Because he placed himself in a chaotic situation and didn't act like a gun carrying person should act. If he stayed out of the situation like his parents told him to do, he'd be alive right now.

I counted what sounded like 10 shots when I watched the video and I used the qualifier "approximately" to show that I don't know for sure how many times he was shot so your point on that one is moot.

As far as him being "considered to be armed and dangerous, like they had the goods on this guy and they were watching him close" you should follow SG's advice and

How do you know he wasn't following the law? Has that been proven/demonstrated? I thought you were going to "wait for more video to come out instead of making up a narrative".

I expect local/state prosecutors to press charges against these agents. We'll see how much respect you have for the law and our judicial system/process if and when that happens.

And again, a January 6 apologist askng why someone is "against following the law" is :rofl:
