I'm ready to Talk about the Minneapolis Situation

This has been said over and over again:

"Minnesota does not ban lawful carry at protests"

Possibly the agent was from a state where this was not the case.

I'm reminded of a black man being arrested for carrying a gun in one of the South States. It turns out, he had a licence, and he was from Missouri, a former French colony, with less of a racist heritage than some English ones, where a black man having a licence is perfectly normal. That was a few years ago.

Perhaps if DHS was going to monitor the protest, they should have been told and be telling every agent, "lawful carry, even at a protest, is not a threat" ...

20:11 How many shots were heard?

If only one shot was heard, it was the one that killed him. But if more than one, it's still possible that already the first one was deliberately aimed at him.

It could be mentioned that if Alex Pretti's own gun incidentally went off, that would be probably testable.

Hence the subpoena for federals not to tamper with evidence.

From what I could tell in the video the agents had him down trying to cuff him another agent appears to take something and started walking away. Then as he was a few steps away other agents started running so that was where the first shot happened right after that is when the agent pulled his gun and shot Pretti. Both deaths are on the far left liberals they are the ones posting videos threatening to kill ICE and border control agents or telling others to do it. Then you have people physically attacking ICE and border control. Then you get situations like these and people act surprised.

@lasko24 Thank you for your observations on the video.

If we want to look at the broader picture, I don't support ICE.

And while you have a point on how some gestures look to the law enforcement, there is also how the law enforcement looks to the public.

I supported Trump (from my blogs in France) in the election. Sometimes had 700 views per day from the US. When I heard about "mass expulsion" of illegals, I was despondent.

Dollfuss and Schuschnigg certainly deported Czechs back to then Czechoslovakia, probably over Gmünd or sth, but they were batches of industrial workers, men, no families, it was kind of a game on both sides.

Austrian industries could survive without Communist agitators. In this case, many of the technically illegal residents are part of the backbone of agriculture in certain states. A former Mormon who's gone slightly left stated that border crossings increased under Biden only or mainly because Biden increased deportations. For a certain point, a few months back, the deportations by ICE since Trump took over are just 2 times and some of what they were under Biden. Trying to deport people who are part of communities will lead to civil war, unless someone, and I don't mean Waltz, he's not likely to, takes a step back.

In Minnesota, there are arguably fewer people from Latin America. ICE shouldn't have dealt with the Somalians, much as there is a reason to suppose some kind of fraud.

As to immigration from Latin America, the best way to have a safe border is, if that's ever possible, unite the US and Mexico, and the South border of those 81 states would be a shorter stretch in partly rougher terrain, so, easier to patrol. If that happens, every Mexican would automatically be legal, btw.

When it comes to the shooting of Renee, this traumatised ICE agent shouldn't have been back in service. But mainly, the proper way for safe borders is turning suspicious people and transports around at the border not letting police roam the streets "sicut leo rugiens quaerens quem devoret" ...
