Man fatally shot by a federal officer in Minnesota

A man fatally shot by a federal officer in Minnesota worked as an ICU nurse, his parents say

I read that the man had a gun and two magazines. Here in NC you are not allowed to carry at Parades or Protests. I don’t know if Minnesota has the same kind of laws.

No apology needed, my friend. Just wanted to let you know as that convo has been going on for several hours, with good questions, links etc.

As for the legal question, neither Minnesota nor Minneapolis have laws prohibiting the lawful carry at/in a protest.

What’s one of the first legalities we’re taught in CHL class? If you start a problem that escalates to you needing to use deadly force, you will probably be held liable for it. And as a healthcare professional of over 3 decades, nurses are ■■■■■■■ lunatics, turned out of the same training model that indoctrinates our children in public schools.

Some states have written into their conceal carry Act, wordage on if it’s legal or not to carry in parades, or large numbered gatherings; Important point for all of us – as not everyone knows or reads the fine print of the laws, as it may differ per state.

According to reports, on Saturday, January 24, Mr. Alex Pretti, a 37 year-old man, was shot and died. The shooting was by U.S. Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

In the first of two videos (below), it seemed to me difficult to see or hear the details of what happened. In his vid, the presenter mentions that the alleged firearm Mr. Pretti had was a Sig Sauer 320. Thus far, I’ve not heard if it accidentally went off during the scuffle.

I was unaware that MN was an open carry state, though it might have appeared he had it concealed which is legal there.

I was confused about why he tried to pick up a woman from the ground during the scuffle, and why he seemed to be physically fighting with the police.

At the same time, I could not understand how with so many officers on him, he was not put into submission. Why “push” the other civilian (woman)?

From this limited and fast-paced view, I could not yet see why he was fired upon, and so many times, while he was on the ground, by what looked like - by three officers.

The presenter asks could one officer had shouted, “he’s got a gun”? Did it go off by mistake?

Calling for more wisdom by us citizens on how to behave, as well as maybe better officer training. Times are turbulent, especially in MN, where there is police and protester engagement. Since May 2020, when the George Floyd story occurred. January 7, two weeks ago, Ms. Good taught us all a valuable lesson. We all should know better by now.

This recent Fall, I was stopped by the police; I was “cool as a cucumber”. By the time they left, we were like friends (almost).

I imagine more and different angle video views may come forth as well as more information.

Disclaimer: In the second video, the notes/comments appear to be by an “Eric”, not ‘this’ author.

How real is the group claiming named Antifa, as alleged by “Kyle Wagner”? Please be careful everyone:

If the ‘protesters’ didn’t obey their puppet masters and let ICE just do their job, this crap wouldn’t be happening. Got to say, I don’t believe the ‘protesters’ tactics have ever worked, but I sure as heck won’t be giving them any tips :wink:.

I doubt it would have mattered.

It’s like fortifying your home the best you can then a determined burglar shows up.
