Minnesota cops beg Walz, pols to let them work with ICE, say they could have prevented shootings.

If Frey and Tampon Tim, you know the guy, he was the standard bearer for the Democratic party over 12 months ago, had let the cops help ICE, then Trump wouldn't have had to send in as many ICE agents as he did.  So, again -- it falls on the Dems!

Why the lame stream media has no credibility!

From the article:  “Alex Pretti has been all over the news since he was shot while engaged with Customers and Border Protection officers in Minneapolis. The fury over CBP and ICE in the dysfunctional city has leftists attempting to elevate the armed insurgent’s status to a combination of martyr and saint.

MS NOW took their brainwashing to the next level by adding beautification to the mix. They heavily enhanced his headshot and displayed the new and improved Pretti on Nicolle Wallace’s show.”

Why did the media, that promotes your philosophy, feel the need to photoshop this radical's picture?  

@UT alum  @Big girl  @DCT  @Boyz N Da Hood           Would love to hear your thoughts!

What about the officers behind Ashley Babbitt in this video? Did they feel threatened?

Here’s another video of her.

 

I can't speak to their frame of mind or decision making. I'm also not saying Babbitt deserved to be shot. But an angry mob was breaking through a barricaded door into a chamber where members of congress were being evacuated from. They did this despite seeing officers with guns drawn on the other side. The totality of the circumstances, and especially with police receiving reports of gunfire, it was justified.

Obviously we’re not going to agree but the video footage shows officers standing in front of the doors while people gather then they move to the side and watch some of the agitators break glass. Then there are tactical officers right behind Babbitt by the stairwell. Obviously none of them felt threatened. The tactical officers are literally there seconds after she is shot then carry her body down the stairwell. I just think it was a senseless overreaction on the officers part.

goes back to the old "awful but lawful" situation. can an officer who's shot someone verbalize an adequate reason for doing so? This officer had plenty of valid reasons to articulate. you can feel it was an overreaction, heck, everyone can. I don't want you to get the impression that I saw the shooting and cheered it on or something. I didn't like the Babbitt shooting, I've just always felt it was pretty easy to justify. The officer can say "I don't know why the officers on the other side of the door didn't act, but I was inside the chamber with my gun drawn protecting evacuating members of congress behind a barricaded door. an angry mob of more than a dozen people were using unknown weapons/items to break through the door and barricade we'd erected to protect our politicians. Despite several clear, lawful commands, the mob eventually broke through a window and attempted to breach the room, despite seeing several officers with firearms on the other side. With the reports of gunshots and officers being attacked I'd been receiving I felt that both myself and the civilians I was protecting were in immediate danger. I fired one shot and the entire mob stopped attempting to breach the room." You may second guess his explanation, but it was enough to keep charges from being filed, and no officer would be charged in an identical situation anywhere (unless it was strictly political, as we may end up seeing in Minnesota).

Sooooo, I’m in Austin driving down S Congress and pass a LIVELY ELEMENTARY school and these elementary age kids are holding a teacher approved Ice Protest. Cool if that is your thing, but that age holding up F Ice signs really shows what these kids are being taught…

I parked further down on Congress and they were let out to march down the street. As they passed they were screaming, they asked me if I supported ice….I said of course, and kids kept walking but an adult lady told me to kick rocks with curse words I’ve never heard of…..lol. So peaceful, it’s a wonder anyone gets hurt (sarcasm)

I don't want you to get the impression that I saw the shooting and cheered it on the way some conservatives are doing with the Minneapolis shootings. I didn't like the shooting.

Despite several clear, lawful commands, the mob eventually broke through a window and attempted to breach the room, despite seeing several officers with firearms on the other side. With the reports of gunshots and officers being attacked I'd been receiving I felt that I needed to act to ensure that a large group of people were unable to storm the room and reach members of congress. I fired one shot and the entire mob stopped attempting to breach the room." You may second guess his explanation, but it was enough to keep charges from being filed, and no officer would be charged in an identical situation anywhere (unless it was strictly political, as we may end up seeing in Minnesota).

I guess what’s odd is why didn’t the officers behind Babbitt shoot her or have their guns drawn to shoot her? The officers knew that Congressmen and Congresswomen were on the other side of the doors where Byrd fired from. I am actually surprised that one of the officers didn’t get hit with the bullet.

that actually could have something to do with why they didn't fire. the officer who fired was able to do so at an angle where he had a wall as a backdrop behind his target. If the officers from behind the mob had fired they would've been sending bullets into the room that the other officers were trying to protect.

They could have took her out at any angle from behind. They didn’t even have their guns drawn telling people to get back from the door.

she also wasn't going through the window at that time. we can go back and forth about what ifs and why nots. still won't change my opinion that it was an easily justified, although decidedly ugly shooting.

That’s fine, I disagree the video shows otherwise.

Should have videoed and turned it in. Oops, the school boards are behind it.

my buddy who lives in austin calls it "performative outrage." seems like a pretty perfect term for it.

Apparently, it’s a middle school. 6-8th. Some kind of magnet school for advanced international studies and such. I wonder if parents had to give permission for under age participation?
