A Federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent in Minnesota shot a second person dead yesterday. Most of the debate since then has focused, understandably, on whether the ICE agent acted in what he perceived to be self-defense.

Whatever the case, it’s clear that, by encouraging people to interfere in law enforcement operations, the Left is getting people killed. Videos show both victims, Renee Good and Alex Pretti, impeding law enforcement operations, which progressive nonprofits, Democrats, and liberal influencers have been encouraging for months.

The life of a liberal……everything is always someone else’s fault. They never own up to anything. Never!

Their miserable existence is always somebody else’s fault.

Leftist agitators…..the same people for which warnings are on a pack of fish hooks not to put them in you mouth.

What do you think about this guy being executed after he was disarmed?

I think you don’t know what executing is. But as to why he was shot, I know that one officer yelled “gun!”, and within a second or two of that another officer disarmed him, during which the gun went off. I believe the officer who fired the shots either saw the pistol taken and in the struggle mistakenly thought that the victim had pulled it from the holster, or didn’t see the gun but heard “gun” and then almost immediately heard the shot and thought the victim was pulling the trigger. I don’t think the victim “deserved” to be shot, and I don’t think it should’ve happened under these circumstances, but I do think there’s going to be a pretty strong argument for ruling the shooting as justified. It’s not really any different than a lot of the cases we see where some kid who’s afraid of the cops runs when he’s pulled over for speeding or fights the cops because they’re busting him on a misdemeanor marijuana charge. The situation escalates needlessly and all of a sudden something that shouldn’t have been a big deal at all puts a cop in a situation where they have to make a split-second decision based on the information they have and their reasonable belief that they’re in danger. Oftentimes when we can go back and look at it from a different angle (and in slow motion), the cop could’ve done something different. But they wouldn’t have had to make a split-second decision if the person they were dealing with didn’t put them in the situation to begin with. Sometimes cops get it wrong, and sometimes it’s still justified. I think that may end up being the case here.

I’ve had a concealed carry permit for a long time…..I’ve never thought while carrying my gun I would need more than what my concealed weapon will carry.
 

I’ve also when pulled over ever refused to comply to the officers orders….where is your gun? It’s in my console. Ok, don’t reach for yours and I won’t reach for mine….deal!
 

I’m smart enough to know  it would not end good if I reached in that console…..

I’ve always got an extra mag or two floating around somewhere 😀

I think “murdered” is a more accurate description. The problem is that state sanctioned actors are doing the murdering. 

Are these the peaceful protesters you are talking about?

47 days is not enough training for any LEO.  The interaction with the community reflects how they have had limited training.  The use of the OC/CS spray tells me they haven’t been properly trained in the use of less than lethal. You are trained to never disperse at the distance these officers are deploying aerosol into the eyes of citizens.  
The way these officers stack the door upon entrance of an home and the way they position their vehicles when they stop vehicles is not in line with adequate training.  Lastly before weapons are fired you always check your cross fire.  
After action review will show a lot of mistakes were made.  Training or lack there of is getting people killed.

“In a Jan. 12-17 national poll by the New York Times (https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2026/01/22/polls/times-siena-national-poll-crosstabs.html), 61% of respondents said they believe ICE tactics have gone too far, including 71% of independents and 19% of Republicans.”

“GOP Rep. Michael McCaul of Texas, the former chair of the House Homeland Security Committee, said he was “troubled” by the shooting. “A thorough investigation is necessary — both to get to the bottom of these incidents and to maintain Americans’ confidence in our justice system,” he said.”
