They say everyone should have guns. And that it’s our right to have them. And scream and fight for the right to carry them. Then the moment they shoot you as you lie unarmed on the ground with five men in your back, they say it’s because you carried a gun.

AOC: "An ICE officer had violently pushed a woman to the ground and he had come over to help get her up and that is what precipitated this incident that very quickly led to an execution in the streets. What we are seeing here is a momentous pivotal moment for the United States."

We need evidence. A mountain of videos to dispel the lies.
The man shot by federal agents, a registered nurse, was an American citizen with no criminal record, the city police chief said. Videos analyzed by The New York Times show he was holding a phone, not a gun.
Record everything. Eyewitnesses are important.

The Trump regime thought everyone secretly agreed with them: they were wrong. They thought everyone would cower when they arrived in cities in force: they were wrong. They thought everyone would stop fighting back when they started killing people: they are wrong.

Timeline: How the Shooting of Alex Jeffrey Pretti Unfolded
A moment-by-moment analysis of video from the scene shows that Mr. Pretti was already restrained when fatal shots were fired, which appears to contradict the federal government’s account of the event.

ICE killing #AlexPretti should remind you of police killing #PhilandoCastille. Both men had concealed weapon permits, did not draw their guns, & were killed in Minn. These homicides are the price of unaccountable policing. These deaths are variations on the same fatal theme.

ICE took the flower man in Echo Park 40 minutes ago. He’s at this corner every day. I’ve bought flowers from the man and woman here for anniversaries and birthdays. Lemmy loves to smell them whenever we walk by in the mornings. I was just at the street corner 15 minutes before it happened. Fuck.
