I think I prefer the America where you can go around and film the federal government on a public street without getting wasted by some retard that was flipping burgers a month ago.

The incident, the third shooting involving federal immigration agents in Minneapolis this month, occurred shortly after 9 a.m. Central Time on the city's South Side when federal law enforcement officers were conducting a targeted operation against a man the Department of Homeland Security said was undocumented and wanted for "violent assault." Gregory Bovino, head of U.S. Border Patrol, said a different man — the one who was fatally shot — approached Border Patrol agents with a 9mm semi-automatic handgun, reiterating DHS's earlier account of the events. Bovino said agents attempted to disarm the man, but he "violently resisted." The agent shot and killed the man in self-defense, according to Bovino.
Wasn’t shot for just walking around and filming

Ignore the typical reddit comments and make your own judgement of the situation.

you realize you just posted an easily disproven statement right? we have clear video that he didn't approach agents with a handgun.

Exactly, that's every administration. Good luck convincing them it's not unique to trump.

Clearest video so far. Good angle too.

Why did he approach the agents at all?

It was taken from a radical right wing website: NPR.org
Only video I have seen starts in the middle of the chaos. I don’t know how it started

You literally don't care about the truth or good. You're literally the devil in human skin
And I assume you know what the truth is?
Love our elected officials or hate them, they aren’t turning us into a Nazi state where people will be sent to camps because of their views. What is happening now is no different than when Obama targeted illegals.
The truth is…we have highly uneducated folks in this country. They believe everything the algorithm feeds them. Despite mountains of evidence that authorities in Minnesota have no idea how to control their largest city, some guy decides he’s gonna pack and go record. If these ICE agents are so vicious, why would you provoke them? What is he gaining by recording this incident? He wants clicks, a viral video, a cheap payday, and woke points.
As I often say…he probably didn’t deserve to die. I don’t know all the facts…or YOUR truth…but once again, we have someone who chose to insert themselves in a dangerous situation involving deadly weapons.

Not that it matters, but the feds escalate the situation by shoving the guy who ended up being killed.

The agent at 12 seconds puts his hand on his gun so he clearly saw the guy's gun
At 13 seconds, would be the other agent removing the gun if he did have it as people say, and a shot is heard milliseconds later
The agent starts shooting at 15 seconds
All so quick and it's obvious the agent who shot had no idea if the gun had been removed and only heard the shot so he probably assumed the guy was shooting

I can’t say I recall seeing the VP and the president and other senior cabinet members commenting so definitively, quickly, and aggressively inaccurate on an incident like this before (except for the Good shooting)
But maybe I’m wrong, I’d love to see some other examples

It seems like LEO accidentally fired the first shot (be it handling the Decedent's weapon or one of their own) and that frickup led to the killing.
Not good for the LEO involved

Uh, they immediately called all the J6 people insurrectionists.

Someone said the gun the guy had was known for misfiring, and that it is the weapon that possibly fired the first shot

That’s what I’ve been hypothesizing. The dead guy’s gun misfired in the struggle causing the other cops to react.
It’s just another in a list of really shitty situations caused by the ridiculous ICE rhetoric.
None of this shite is happening elsewhere nor in the past. While the blame rests on these officers the climate leading to it rests squarely on people like Waltz and Frey. And they continue to do anything but calm it down.
This is going to keep happening in Minnesota.
