ICE agent fatally shoots woman

[jstell]

At that distance if any of the ICE guys missed they shouldn't be carrying. If you are wearing one as part of your job, you damn well better know how to use it. And if "the stress of the moment caused them to miss", then they don't have the temperament for the job.

I was actually pretty impressed they didn't shoot each other.  Of course if they had, I'm sure Noem would be up there saying they were shot by terrorists.

It would have been the first time she was telling the truth.

I stand corrected

While this guy defiantly did not deserve what happened to him,
I think play stupid games, win stupid prizes applies here.

ICE is 2-0 in the quick-draw competition.
I'd say that's Pretti-Good!

I think they had the guy on the ground in a dog pile.
One ICE agent got his pistol and was walking away with it when he had an AD.
That shot cause two other agent to do a mag dump into the guys back.
Not a good look for sure.
I don't feel even slightly bad for the dead guy.
He was part of an organized resistance group bent on interfering with ICE operations.

So how do you feel about Jan 6th, or are you only a raging hypocrite on tuesdays?

In your little misinformed fantasy world, he was. The rest of us, who aren't impervious to facts, see things how they really are.

To be fair, it is Wednesday.

It's remarkable what you find when you close the PJMedia and Gateway Pundit tabs and see what's happening in the real world.

I'm wondering though, where did you get the information to support your original post? When his gun went off and he shot himself, and the other stuff you said you "believed?"

Another one, this time in Arizona.

Update with more info on this incident.  Looks like CBP was actually doing their job on this one.  Guy was shooting at one of their helicopters after they chased him down and he got out of his truck to make a run for it.

If you're going to shoot at a chopper, you better make sure you down it... With all the violence surrounding ICE and now this one, when are they going to start using poacher's net guns? Bag 'em, tag 'em, sort 'em out after.

Based on what is now known, it is far more accurate to say that Alex Pretti functioned as an active participant in the ICE Watch insurgency in Minnesota. He was not a bystander. He was not merely present. He was trained, coordinated, armed, and operational. He provided actionable intelligence. He accepted assignments. He moved toward enforcement scenes in response to real time direction. And on the day of his death, he inserted himself physically into a confrontation with federal officers while carrying a loaded firearm and additional magazines, in violation of Minnesota law, after being warned by his own parents not to engage officers because of his anger.
To see this clearly, it helps to distinguish protest from direct action. Protest expresses opposition. Direct action seeks to obstruct. Protest communicates. Direct action intervenes. Protest attempts to persuade an audience. Direct action attempts to impose costs. ICE Watch was not organized around persuasion. It was organized around disruption. Its purpose was to locate, track, and interfere with immigration enforcement operations in real time.
Alex Pretti attended ICE Watch training. He participated in Signal groups used to coordinate these operations. He did not merely observe these channels. He contributed to them. He provided location updates. He responded to calls for support. He moved to spot ICE vehicles. He accepted assignments to go to enforcement scenes. That is not expressive dissent. That is operational participation.
According to CNN Pretti was involved with an encounter with ICE a week earlier. Reportedly Pretti was tackled by federal agents as he attempted to stop them from detaining an illegal alien. He claims that he suffered a broken rib before he was eventually released without charges. At the time he was carrying his ID but he wasn't carrying his pistol despite having a conceal carry permit.
