He had very kind eyes. ❤️
Alex Pretti, the man killed by federal agents today in Minneapolis, appears to have been a registered nurse, an athlete, a son and a brother, with ties to Colorado and Wisconsin.
Here is a photo he used for several accounts.

MAGAs are already defending ICE fascists by saying the man they killed today had a gun.
1. MN is an open carry state
2. The same MAGA bootlickers who claim we need unlimited guns to "prevent government tyranny" are the first ones to scream "OH MY GOD HE HAD A GUN" when tyrannical govt kills someone

ICE agents are America's failures, basically indistinguishable from lazy school shooters, losers who want to play Call of Duty on our streets against people who can't fight back. They have unlimited ammo and toss tear gas like they're pressing L1. They have to be defunded and jailed. All of them.

I want every ICE agent to end up on trial. I want them to have every good thing snatched from their lives. I want them to experience all the fear they inflicted upon people just trying to live their lives. And I want them remembered as the disgraces they always were.

ICE just shot another one of my neighbors. They had the person on the ground, being beaten by several agents, and then fired multiple shots. In front of the donut shop where we like to get donuts for our kids.

ICE just gunned down ANOTHER person, beating a man half to death before shooting him at point blank range. What the fuck are we doing?
ARREST ICE NOW. PROSECUTE ICE NOW.
I will not rest until every single one of these murderers is held accountable to the communities they terrorize.

It really is kinda wild just how many MAGA influencers are either Hollywood hopefuls, has-beens or never-would-bes and you would think people would connect the dots when it comes to that. Hell, the MAGA Overlord himself is a B-list celebrity

Watching these videos of ICE attacking children, I can’t help but think about how many of these men first practiced their violence in their own homes.

My hot take is that at minimum a domestic violence conviction should carry a lot more of the shame and restrictions of a sex offender; it should ban you nationally from gun ownership, jobs in law enforcement, schools, pretty much any public sector work. It’s our clearest red flag for future violence
