Gestapo. Storm Troopers. Dumbfuck Goons. Whatever you wanna call these shameless pieces of shit, it's real pathetic that they are proud of what they're doing. Sickening.

Don't real cops/law enforcement usually go before a grand jury when they are involved in a shooting? Seems like Ice would have to do the same, maybe grand juries are gay now or something 🤷‍♂️.

That video contradicts administration claims that he and others were interfering with immigration enforcement, and Pierce argued that the earlier encounter – which was also recorded on video that came to light after his column was published – suggests that agents intentionally targeted the intensive care nurse

"There’s no 'riot,'" Pierce wrote. "There aren’t enough people on the sidewalk for a decent hockey fight. An ICE officer walks right up to Pretti and initiates the violence. Then he and his colleagues swarm Pretti, who vanishes below a flurry of punches and kicks while onlookers plead with his attackers. And then five shots ring out, a pause, and then five more."

"Presumably, Pretti at least was incapacitated by the first volley, which means the second burst was meant to do what?" the columnist added. "Kill a dead man? Intimidate the witnesses? Everything that the ICE agents do in that video can arguably be interpreted as planned and purposeful."

100% it was meant to finish the job. Probably not the killer(s?) first rodeo either. The administration (mainly Miller and whoever has their hand up his puppet ass) pressures DHS to get new recruits as fast as possible without bothering to do a background check. DHS (Noem and her puppet master Lewendowski) are dumb and evil enough (not to mention fucking drunk on unchecked power and greed) to give their blessing for whatever commands Miller screeches.

Surprise of the century, in the rush to get rich by hurting America, DHS "accidentally" ends up hiring professional murderers to carry out their campaign of making America "safe."

OK, MN District Attorney, there's your case. File the charges. 1st Degree Murder, Conspiracy, and pile on everything else you can reasonably add. Sooner, rather than later. Justice delayed is justice denied.

"If all of them want to say that they didn’t recognize Pretti as the guy who’d already had his ribs broken in an earlier encounter with federal agents, let them say it under oath in a courtroom as part of their defense against a charge of murder in the first degree,"

Let them confess it - no court will convict them for first-degree murder on the basis of that. Unless, that is, the United States has generally got its shit sorted out by the time it comes to court and ICE is being treated as a criminal secret police.

Pretti should have shot first is all I'm hearing. It's only a matter of time before that lesson is learned and someone does.

Look, I want these ICE murderers get the justice they deserve (and you know exactly what I mean), but first degree murder seems like a stretch. It would be way easier to prove second degree and would still be a pretty harsh dose of justice.

Because of that video footage, the media is already painting him as a violent criminal.

This murder will never be forgotten.

Even more so now that Springsteen immortalized him.

I want to think something will come of it, but I worry that if the ICE agent catches a charge for this, Trump will pardon him. He needs to send a clear message to his Gestapo that they're above the law and that would be a way to do it. If that happens, I seriously hope it's the catalyst to full-scale drag-people-into-the-street-and-beat-them-to-death revolt.
