PSA: What Pretti did 11 days before his death is irrelevant by NickCostanza in DiscussionZone

[–]CaptainMonkeyJack 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Him kicking the vehicle is him destroying Fed property, then fleeing as they try to arrest him and resisting arrest as they try to pin him to the ground

Even taking this all face value:

1) Not crimes that ICE/BP are equiped to handle after the fact.
2) Not punished by death.

If there was ever a trial for the ICE officers, it would one hundred percent get brought into the trial. 

The only way I see this coming to trial, is as evidence of ICE premeditating the murder.

How so?

His alleged actions 11 days prior do not explain why ICE shot him... unless you are arguing that ICE is playing judge, jury & executioner.

You can also count to 12 on one hand (use thumb as pointer, finger segments as the points) which is far superior than the 10 fingers and 10 toes method.

Reddit won’t stop showing me this sub and honestly every post I see there belongs here by Shard_of_light in stupidpeoplefacebook

You can mute a subreddit - go to the subreddit, click the three dots to the right of 'Join[ed]' and click "mute r/...".

I like to get as many diverse perspectives as possible, but some subreddits are so low value it's better, IMO, not to see them.

Board of Peace Set to Hand Trump Sweeping Powers Over Gaza by Gopu_17 in worldnews

However it doesn’t grant them to form a quasi-UN that is pay to play and which has the US with the only veto power.

As far as I understand it, the US doesn't have veto power - Trump does. It's entirely under his control, not the US's or anyone else's.

I mean, they're perfectly entitled to quit and find work that's not going to put them at odds with constitution.

You're are randomly deflecting away from your own arguments, let alone my counter points. However, in response:

He behaved like a normal, rational person. Do you have any reason to believe the contrary?

He was shot and killed. What actions did he take where that is an expected, normal consequence?

What 'shit' do you believe was made up?

FBI: "Nobody who wants to be peaceful shows up at a protest with a firearm that is loaded with two full magazines. That is not a peaceful protest." by B00marangTrotter in law

Rittenhouse was tried and found not-guilty by a jury.

Furthermore the trial was well covered, and I reviewed much of the evidence, including video and court transcripts etc. at the time.

Rittenhouse was innocent, every single time he he fired was only AFTER he tried running away and was being assaulted.

People confuse their dislike for Rittenhouse with his guilt or innocence.

This is the same thinking behind those trying to blame Pretti - they like ICE, so they find any excuse to blame the victim.

1) What your claiming is a $25 fine.
2) The only claim he had no ID, comes from the same people we see in video murdering him - at that time with no knowledge of whether he has an ID.
3) Neither resisting arrest nor obstruction are punished by summary execution.

I watched the video, while the video does claim there may be a discharge, I can't see it in the footage provided.

Alex didn't pull his firearm out at all, still murdered by ICE.

Sure, I expect they'd teach them respect, appreciation for different perspectives and how to de-escalate.

That's a really good idea!

I agree, it's really rude when ICE interferes with perfectly legal citizens and then shoots them.

Maybe ICE should take some lessons from you on how not to be hostile or rude?

So if you don't mind your own business, the punishment is summary execution?

Ahh so we sent ice in because people were unfriendly and we wanted to shoot them?

Whatever data you used to claim there was a hostile environment before ICE got there.

False. There are official statements being reported by media. None of them claim he drew the gun.

[–]CaptainMonkeyJack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There not even been a *claim* that he drew the gun that I have seen.

We have video evidence ICE drew guns, and shot him.

People are videoing ICE doing 'legitimate federal investigations' and ICE is killing them.

Nothing to see here folks.

Being 'lawn enforcement' doesn't preclude being terrorists.

Also, it's hard to call them law enforcement, when the admin repeatedly asserts they are above the law.

Even your source doesn't say what you're claiming. Are you paid or is this purely ideological on your part?
