Minneapolis Police Chief O'Hara: "The video speaks for itself. We have identified this person - 37-year-old, white male, resident of the city. The only interaction that we are aware of with law enforcement has been for traffic tickets and we believe he is a lawfully gun owner with a permit to carry"

DHS doesn't know how to de-escalate. If local cops try to arrest any one of Bovino's killers there is a high chance that it begins the shooting war we've all hoped wouldn't come, but have feared.

I hear you on that, it just seems like the only way to stop these terrorists is if local or state police or national guard interfere. All we can do is peacefully protest and record video on our phone and that's not freaking working out for We The People.

Someone needs to take a stand. Fear will keep this escalating. The need to do their job. Don’t be like the pussies in uvalde. They’re all big and bad when some black dude is holding a phone, but can’t stand up for the constitution they swore to uphold.

It's gonna escalate regardless. Right now there is still a slim chance that Congress reclaims its constitutional duties to check Executive Power and the Executive complies. Even if they don't comply, it's important that it be clear the GOP/MAGA refused lawful authority.

From Venezuela to the streets of Minneapolis, the Trump regime murders & demonizes whole peoples and countries w/o any pretense of the rule of law. This is open brutal terrorism to enforce a fascist regime of white supremacy, xenophobia, & patriarchy. Fascism is upon us now. TRUMP MUST GO NOW!

Video shows an agent removes a gun from the guy and as he is running away with the gun the shooting starts. bsky.app/profile/keit...

I don't normally link X, but given the importance of this I make an exception. This video shows an officer reaching in and removing a gun from the guy BEFORE the shooting. xcancel.com/gremloe/stat...

Are they going to arrest all those involved with the murder? No. They will not. That speaks volumes. You are all on your own, it appears no legal or law enforcement will arrest and prosecute.

The very richest spend billions to convince the very dumbest that a criminal pedophile is their savior, and we are now dealing with the result. This one man is paid $45 million/yr by a billionaire to spread total bullshit to the dumbest to protect a criminal. There are thousands more just like him.

This is a terrorist who just happens to be in charge of a powerful country. He meets the very definition of a terrorist. He is terrorizing democratic cities to deflect from the Epstein scandal and appeal politically to his base.

They killed a legal observer is where we're at. bsky.app/profile/jswe...

BREAKING: An eyewitness told The Intercept that the victim of this morning’s fatal shooting by federal agents in Minneapolis appeared to be one of several legal observers who mobilized this morning outside a donut shop. theintercept.com/2026/01/24/m...

Arrest the shooters! Jail and Hold all of them accountable. They ganged up on one innocent bystander. We want justice and it’s time to abolish ICE. Trump pardoned 1600 violent J6 criminals to do this. So more Blood is on his hands. Noem hired unstable greedy scum. Get the f💣 out of Minneapolis!

donOLD tRump has total control of the federal government with absolute immunity. I don't think I have ever seen anyone sabotage his power more than donOLD tRump. It's not even November yet, and he is loosing the midterm elections and his name isn't even on the ballot.

Well, it’s not going to stop, he’s not going to remove them, she’s not going to resign. More people are going to die and/or be sent to America’s concentration camps. These pleas are the same as “thoughts & prayers”. It’s really hard to “stay calm”; it’s the same as surrendering at this point.

but did they arrest the 7 gestapo that were beating him gang style before they executed him??? They should have all been arrested on the spot!!! A murder is a murder, which requires an investigation while the suspects are held in jail.

I just wrote and posted this yesterday…it’s in regard to unlawful entry into homes. I’m a gun owner and I would absolutely feel the need to protect myself if someone forcefully entered my home. However, I’m sure that protecting oneself at this point, would still result in one’s own death. 😢

Alex Pretti was a gun owner, he didn’t have it drawn, he wasn’t even touching it! It was something he possessed legally, to protect himself should the need ever arise. This was a no win situation, they had already made their minds up, they knew what they were going to do…and they did it. Fuck ICE!

All of the local and state officials who could do something about these murders are Democrats. If arrest warrants aren’t obtained for these ICE agents immediately, Democrats might as well publicly come out and endorse these murders and encourage ICE to do more. Maybe Dems can make a game of it.

Don’t hold your breath . Laws for thee but not for those fuckers . Their leader has given them the go ahead to kill . 1st term shoot them in the leg . 2nd term shoot them until they are dead . All you none voters and prick voters this is on you . I will never forgive you . Fuck off .

On a live on tiktok this image was shown as the reported victim killed by ICE. I could not verify. Gentleman had a phone in his hand.

There was no gun. Based on this affidavit by a woman who was there (pretty sure it's the woman in pink that can be seen filming in other released videos), all he was holding in his hand was a phone. He never pulled a weapon. They executed him for daring to help someone. bsky.app/profile/reic...

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

Just so im clear Kristi Noem, this 37 yo man with a gun, walked around Mpls for an hour before he was shot? He walked past several ICE agents throughout the day yet the only person shot was him? He went there to do 'maximum damage' yet he never drew his LEGAL gun?? Huh..that just doesn't sound right

OMG! Finally got to sit down & read some followup on this shooting. Horrible! Sickening! So, 2 White people murdered. Any of you fucking White "conservatives" starting to feel sick to your stomach, yet?

Again, doesn't matter if he had a gun or not. Minnesota is NOT a stand your ground State. This means a person must attempt to avoid or escape a violent situation when possible rather than immediately resorting to force. ICE not justified in shooting multiple times after he was immobilized.

gun ownership in the US: Total Guns: Between 400-500 million civilian-owned firearms. Guns Per Person: Roughly 1.5 firearms per U.S. citizen. Households: About 46% of American households own at least one firearm.

He was murdered. Everytime this happens are we really gonna do "well from this angle say" or "well he had a gun, so.." and lie about the things that we can see with our own eyes. This was a beating followed by a cold calculated homicide. No debate needed. Period.

They disarmed him BEFORE they shot him in the back. He NEVER drew his legally worn firearm. It was tucked into the back of his pants. He was helping someone who had been sprayed in the face, get off the road. The murderers tackled him, disarmed him, and shot him. ICE MURDERED HIM.

“Then the wave of 2nd amendment flag shaggers, rose up out of their basements and choked the Fed simps with “don’t tread on me flags!” Thus endeth the lesson! #tRumpisAPOS

So what did he do wrong? I saw the video too, and unless there is a magic view or the Feds are creating an AI for their version of the storied, this looks like an execution. Why is he not in your custody? Do the officers in your department agree with the Federal government's actions?

Where is the NRA? This is a legal gun owner, carrying a weapon all within his rights. And he was targeted for it, his gun taken away, then savagely beaten by several armed officers, finally shot execution style in the back - all while his horrified wife watched helplessly.

Antæus@c3maz.bsky.social

If the ICE murder victim was armed, the DHS just declared war against anyone that believes they have 2nd amendment rights. I don't think this is the fight they wanted, but they are getting it.

I am completely skeptical of anything coming out of DHS, they continually lie. What actually happened, did ICE actually find a gun on him, then panicked, shooting him multiple times in the back as he lay prone on the ground. We may never know the truth, I fully expect a concerted coverup by the feds

The States would have to have a RICO Statute codified in their States Laws that's pretty broad & wouldn't just focus on "White Collar" crimes. GA has a broad State RICO Statute hence, Fani Willis used it & got the indictment of F45 & 18 co-conspirators! I'M ALL FOR THE IDEA! HELLO?? ☎️ BLUE AGs!?!

“We have identified this person” no I’m interested in the murderer and when he will be in custody. And his coworkers are Accessory after the fact

Can you give the source for this particular video? The people aren't in the right places in every other video we've seen. If the part added about the victim being a gun owner is legitimate, I want to be able to share it to other social media.

The 2A/small govt enthusiasts were never against a tyrannical govt as long as they are doing harm 2 the American’s they hate. This is EXACTLY what they wanted. It’s a big mirror reflecting a very ugly percentage of American society’s hateful values expedited by fascist propaganda spread by US MSM.

I don’t get it are the police afraid to arrest the murderers? Why have a press conference to tell us what we can see and not do anything?

Maybe cuz I am Canadian. Why is he in front of cameras, instead of taking control? Truths are great, except they are not making a difference. why isn't the guard that the gov. sent out doing anything? Are they waiting for the people to arm themselves and take control? Geezuz

The just pulled Ryan Wedding for drugs and ordering hits, looks like they need to go pull their dear leader now too for being at the top of this murderous league of brainless thugs.

Oh boy… what will the NRA and all the 2nd amendment folks do now?! Praying for his family… there is no reason for 🧊 to be in Minnesota- we live in a country that I know longer recognize nor want to be part of.

FWIW, this is the problem with the NRA and their belief carry is required for well regulated state. This guy probably believes, right or wrong, that ICE is acting as unnecessary authoritarians. So, to regulate he is legally carrying. Using that as excuse to “defend” is why many oppose open carry.

Drip, drip, drip... Those frozen by ICE are slowly melting. The layers of protection are ever so slowly coming down. ICE has been SO lawless, even those that habitually defend lawlessness among their enforcers can't. Oh, the usual liars will tell the lies they always tell. But the ICE is cracking.

Don't get me wrong, these lickspittles aren't exactly our friends here... the enemy of my enemy is my enemy's enemy; nothing more. And it would be better if those words were followed up with any kind of consequences for the lawless killers and kidnappers... But the language used feels different.

Blah blah blah. These press conferences are another version of sternly worded letters until this Chief and his force do something about it. More leaders failing the people.

I think they were. It’s not like anyone who is being pummeled by 6 agents is going to pull out a gun anyway or would be able to. This guy by all accounts was not unhinged. The admin. called him a terrorist assassin. Like c’mon. This is not democracy.
