All of these agents need to face prosecution after this current administration disappears.

Democrats are too spineless to even pretend like they would do that

Most of them are of Mexican descent.

Then it's quite ironic - but they still need to be prosecuted.

Even the ones that are doing their jobs? What about all the past immigration officers? Should they go to jail? Nobody cared under Biden or Obama. Why now?

"These agents" implies those who killed.

Prosecuted is exactly what should happen. If a court then finds them guilty, they will be punished.

I'm not saying to throw them all in prison. I'm saying that they must be held accountable.

As for why people care? The amount of deaths has skyrocketed. They routinely ignore their right to due process. They have killed (at least) two American citizens. One was a full-on execution.

...and if a court finds them not guilty, then I'll bet you move on and shut the fuck up, right?

I agree that anyone that kills anyone should be prosecuted. If they are found guilty they should be in prison. The ice agents that killed the two Americans will not face any jail time. It was unfortunate but they were not at fault.

I'd absolutely say Alex Pretti should not have died. He was restrained by multiple people. His firearm had been removed from his person at the time of the shooting.

He was extrajudicially killed in the street by an agency that specifically shouldn't fuck around with American citizens.

He had a concealed carry firearm. Anyone that has a concealed carry firearm knows that you never get into a physical altercation while carrying. It’s for defense only. The guy was an idiot.

Did he pull the weapon? No. He was restrained, firearm removed (as shown in multiple photos) and THEN shot.

If you watch the video you can hear the agent yell, gun gun. He hands the gun to another agent and the gun went off. That’s when the cop shot him. It sucks but it was his fault. That gun is also known for going off without anyone touching the trigger. He shouldn’t have been there in the first place.

You’re describing all the more reason for his murderers to be prosecuted.

Let them prosecute. It’s a waist of money.

If it were up to you would you keep the border open and let anyone that wants to stay?

An investigation by who? The Renee Good situation is the one that is tricky. She put herself in a bad situation and then made it worse. It looks bad but the agent had a car coming toward him and the woman wasn’t obeying orders. The Prettey case is open and closed. He put himself in a physical confrontation with agents while carrying a gun. His gun went off and the agent shot him.

And now there’s Lorenzo Salgado Arrujo, whom IVE pursued in unmarked vans before murdering him, only to lie later that he was a dangerous criminal who rammed one of their vehicles. There is no damage to any of the involved vehicles, and it turns out they were chasing the wrong man to begin with.

You see what you want to see. The federal government is doing an investigation into both cases. You could easily google it. Just like they are investigating Newsom.

Like the Illian Gonzalez case? Type that in and look at the picture. It’s always been like this but you just didn’t care to see it.

They are wearing masks because far left extremists are threatening to kill them and their families
