The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Honestly shocked, in a good way, that in the midst of this storm the ICE assassination is still at the top of the NYT, WaPo, CNN, even Fox News pages!

The United States Government’s position is that it is unlawful to watch law enforcement and you will be assaulted, it is treasonous to oppose their work and you will be executed for it, the President of the United States will defame you in death, and they will say “good job, law enforcement” on CNN.

Stand Your Ground laws should protect you against any masked people trying to kidnap you. Any self-defense law should cover this scenario, if they can't prove they're law enforcement and they're trying to kidnap or shoot you, you should be able to defend yourself.
Mayes warns Arizona self-defense laws could clash with masked ICE raids
AG Kris Mayes says masked ICE agents and self-defense laws could create a "combustible" situation.

"But you need to tell everybody that we treated you kindly."
They were eventually allowed one phone call as a thanks for saving the agent’s life.
They used it to call their lawyer, who called their state representative, who ultimately got them released on the condition they tell people they were “treated kindly.”

Leaked footage from Iran show how regime thugs from the IRGC in technicals are indiscriminately shooting into crowds using automatic weapons. This scene probably happened around January 8 to 10 in Tehran.
