I don’t think so. This mentioned ‘preliminary.’

I said earlier they would turn on themselves. The organizers have no real interest in the people. Only in the chaos. Walz deserves what he gets. He coddled it. [Hidden Content]

Report of the encounter with Mr. Pretti that was provided to Congress: [Hidden Content]

[Hidden Content] Certain Minnesota officials after their names have been uncovered in the Signal chat logs with the organized anti ICE agitators. (Permission granted for @DCT to use in his daily Epstein rant. But, only in that thread!) 😂

I’m still waiting on the purported body cam footage. I don’t think it will paint the incident with Mr. Pretti in any better light. But, in light of new information posted, I think the ‘totality’ argument established by SCOTUS in LEO use of deadly force has been satisfied if the new evidence is proven out.

Latest Development on Alex Pretti Shooting Tears Up Another Lib Narrative [Hidden Content] Don't usually view this source. But, this is interesting, and follows along with other recent reporting. IMHO, Katie Pavlich is correct in her assessment. Anyone with experience will try to avoid.

Neighbor is a retired policeman then detective for a local police department. He used to work with the HPD Gang/Drug Task Force on special assignments occasionally. He would tell me he felt 'naked' without carrying his firearm--even on vacation. I asked him once if he'd ever had to use it. He said 'No.' He knows some of my background. He asked if I'd ever had to use my training. I told him 'Yes, and that's why I don't carry.'

I think people would be surprised to find that most veterans don’t own firearms. While I’m one of the 47% minority, I don’t carry. My home is a different matter entirely.

Please post a single video that shows an immigration agent jumping out at someone from behind anything. Sure you’re not confusing them with ambulance chasing lawyers?

I have seen multiple videos in both cases. Have you read the link I posted? I stand by my statement that—in both cases—the deceased and others were performing illegal actions according to the courts. Just the acts of whistling, yelling, distracting LEO’s, or encroaching on an area is illegal according to the courts. Does that mean Good and/or Pretti should have been shot? IMHO…I’d think there could have been a lesser alternative chosen. But, I’m not into second-guessing someone in a conflict situation. I’ve been there in slightly different situations. Although, I will say my situation was me or them. Different.

As my background is military/‘foreign affairs’ oriented and engineering—not law enforcement—I was interested in any SCOTUS rulings on distance requirements during an active law enforcement activity. I wasn’t sure of it myself. I just always tried to stay back. Clearly, Good wasn’t following these guidelines, and Pretti is still not clear as—in the Good incident—the first videos only pick up at the confrontation, and don’t show the full interaction. Pretti was obviously on scene before the widely circulated videos begin. What was he doing? Was he interacting with anyone? In the rush for each ‘side’ to claim the narrative, videos are being presented that only show what the videographer wants to show.

Ha! May want to try Qunol Turmeric cause that ginkgo biloba ain’t cutting it. 😉

You just did it again. lol If you want to add/edit, use the 3 dots in the upper right-hand corner of your post & select edit and then resave. Either that, or reuse my post again instead of yours. That way, it makes more sense who you’re talking to/about.

I have no clue what you’re talking about. Half of your posts, you quote yourself. Not sure what you’re doing to do that. But, it makes it hard to know who you’re talking to. You responded to one of my posts to Lumberton earlier today, and then started responding to your own posts again. That’s what we’re talking about. Go look back at your earlier posts today.
