Interesting that she was the only one shot in this mob attack.
-
The officer in the first shooting wasn’t “standing in front of the car”. He was in fact walking in from the side until she gunned it forward and turned her wheels. But even if he’d stood stationary directly in front of her while she was parked, his shooting was obviously justified. The second shooting is a lot worse. I still think it’s gonna get ruled justified, but it’s much less clear cut, and the officers did a much worse job before, during, and after the incident. For what it’s worth, I’m comfortable saying I believe neither shooting victim was trying to hurt law enforcement.

Capital police were protecting members of congress, and had barricaded doors and were posted up with guns drawn. An angry mob broke a window and she was the first one through, despite lawful commands to stop. Officers had no way of knowing whether she was armed or not, but they certainly knew she was breaking through despite their commands, and that if she led an angry mob through they could overpower officers and possibly hurt the people the officers are paid to protect. If she’d been a democrat a lot of guys would be saying she got what she deserved. It’s a very similar situation to this one, where everyone on here is saying “it wasn’t a great shoot, but if he’d just complied…” and what she was doing was way worse than what Pretti did. But even if you don’t agree with me (and the law, and the courts), what would you do if me and 20 buddies came over to your house and broke through your barricaded window and tried to come inside? You gonna let me get all the way in and try to find out if I’m armed?

ANOTHER ICE SHOOTING IN Minneapolis
TheMissingBand replied to thetragichippy's topic in Political Forum
I value your perspective as an instructor of policemen. I expect you to be more sympathetic to the blue whenever any latitude can be given, but I still like to hear what you think. Can you give your opinion on the two Minnesota shootings? Do you agree with the tactics of the shooter in the first episode (standing in front of the car, shooting as the suspect flees, etc). Same thing with the second incident… how do you feel about the agent that shoved the lady to the ground which seemed to trigger the whole confrontation? The pistol whipping, the celebration by agents immediately after, etc. Were these incidents handled “by the book,” or do you feel the actions by agents were outside the bounds of what you’d expect from LEOs? -
Lack of training played a role among other things. Did you say that on J6?

I completed training in Glynco in 1996. CBP training is for Border security not inner city crowd control.

CBP training is six months.

Justified ruling, well we know how the system works. But, correct me if I’m wrong, she didn’t have a gun and she didn’t attack law enforcement.
-
Both were ex-cons with one being a sex offender. Rittenhouse was acquitted of all charges.
-
The liberals, who hate the 2nd amendment and want stricter gun controls, up to and including forfeiture, are taking the side of an armed gunman. Any way the wind blows….

ANOTHER ICE SHOOTING IN Minneapolis

Another huge difference is one was against looters, one was against ICE. -
US Border Patrol commander Greg Bovino previously said that at the time of the shooting, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents were looking for a man named Jose Huerta Chuma during a "targeted" operation, and that Chuma's criminal history includes domestic assault, intentional infliction of bodily harm and disorderly conduct. The Minnesota Department of Corrections (DOC) has since rebutted those claims and said that Huerta had never been in Minnesota DOC custody and public records reflected only misdemeanour-level traffic offences from more than a decade ago.

We don’t share the same perception. I saw no fight, only a bear spray attack and a shooting.

[Hidden Content] News out of Minnesota. When asked if the president agreed with top deputies labeling Pretti a domestic terrorist and insisting without evidence that he was out to harm agents, White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said, "I have not heard the president characterize Mr. Pretti in that way." On whether top officials jumped too quickly to conclusions, she said the president "wants to let the investigation continue and let the facts lead in this case."

True on both counts. This one is different than Good, or the Venezuelans in Portland. I wish they weren’t being lumped together. Each of the 3 instances are as different as night and day.

What about the perp the Dallas police blew to smithereens with a remote controlled bomb? He was hiding behind a cement column. Justified. I thought we were going down the list of perps killed by police….so there’s that. When do we stop?
