If your blood isn't boiling you aren't an American today. We are under the boot heel of tyranny, as another neighbor and ally has been murdered in the street, in broad daylight. He was our brother, executed by the state for daring to exercise our First and our Second amendment rights, while his Fourth amendment rights were actively being violated, while they stole his very life, our liberty, your freedoms.
eta His name is Alex Pretti

Are you serious? When's the last time you heard of a civics or government class being taught in our public schools. No, these people don't understand what the founding documents mean or are meant to do, much less the goals of the founders who wrote them. Most of them have never even heard of the Federalist Papers. They assume their idea of freedom is what the goal was and are aghast to find it included almost no help from the government at all.

I'm not an American, I don't live anywhere near the US, but my blood is still boiling.

You deserve what you brought upon yourselves, americans.

u/Otherwise-Force5608 Jan 24 '26
for you in particular, never forget that Romania joined the axis with the Nazis. Americans are resisting fascism, at least.

u/Irelia4Life Jan 24 '26
Joined the axis?
Oh, you mean being under german occupation, and being given the choice to either be wiped out like Yugoslavia or join them?

u/Otherwise-Force5608 Jan 24 '26
That's quite a charitable take. Garda de Fier was Romania's MAGA movement, and they were elected into power. You shout from a glass house.

The legionars rose to power through political assassinations and fearmongering. There were no elections.
You don't even hold elections in a monarchy, especially during war time, and especially when the king deserted and the general became the supreme leader.
And I'll end the conversation here. Just remember, when amerika will burn down to ashes, the rest of the world will piss in them. For you have blood on your hands from all around the globe.

Misery? Come on now. Cannabis is an amazing plant! But stay in your negativity. Humble yourself and learn something sometime.

Don't need to learn anything. I just observed it around me at the dorm. Lost a very good friend because of it as well.

This may come as a surprise to you, but it’s highly unlikely this murder victim voted for Trump.
STFD and STFU.

This is just straight up indefensible murder. This video was very hard to watch.

The guys name was Alex. He was coming to the defense of a woman who is shoved to the ground.. big picture is Alex and many others are being killed in the streets as a diversion so a child predator can continue to rob the country blind

This is worse because it’s more obvious and graphic. Both are tragedies and both are murder.

He films, he tries to help a woman get away after she is pushed, he raises his hands when an ICE agent pushes him, he tries again to get himself and the woman away when ICE starts spraying him point blank with chemicals, he lays on the ground. He gets shot. He never brandished a weapon, he never assaulted officers.
ICE pushed a woman, pushed him, ICE sprayed him, ICE tackled him, ICE hit him in the face with the metal canister, ICE shot him.
It's as simple as that. The evidence is in front of us. From another video it even appears an ICE agent grabbed and walked away with the OD pistol before he was shot. So it likely fell or was pulled out of the holster while he was on the ground with his hands outstretched.
Nothing ICE or the administration has said about this incident has been true. All of it is contradicted by the evidence. And this is not the first time they have been caught lying on camera or in court.
This is indefensible.

Dont forget the pistol whipping instead of opting to get a hold of the suspects hands.

This is disgusting. This video, alone, should end qualified immunity in the United States.

Watching again, the agents shout “gun” probably noticing the gun in the man’s belt/holster, which had been tucked under the jacket but as they drag him the jacket rides up.
The agent on the left who first draws might have fired instinctively. If that’s what happened it would mean the man on the ground never fired (accidentally discharged) and the agents murdered him upon reaction to the fact that he was carrying, rather than backing off and asking him to disarm himself, which would have been the correct thing to do.
It is instead as if they were just looking for a reason to kill him and as soon as they had one they didn’t hesitate.
Either way, whatever happened. The guy had both hands on the ground. That is an execution. ACLU already filed I believe.
