How do you come to this conclusion?

Are you saying the agent disarming the man on his hands and knees accidentally fired the weapon which causes others to dump on the guy?

That’s unforgivable. Especially given the officer’s actions to that point.

And that man is not really resisting. They have control over him.

It’s getting close to an execution.

You should probably do some homework on what domestic terrorism is and quit embarrassing yourself with this nonsense

I suppose that depends entirely on what your goals are. If your goals are are detaining and deporting more illegals then focusing on red States is very smart. If your goals are something else then perhaps not

You should probably just answer my question rather than deflecting

Ehh, that armed part feels bad faith in combination with the rest.

No one had any idea that he had a weapon until they deholsterd(?) his gun. He was not acting like an armed domestic terorist.

Didn't they announce a huge operation and flooding MN in response to the Somali fraud story? I imagine that


Extra ICE was brought in because Minneapolis does not follow federal law when dealing with illegals. Local and state authorities do not detain and also said they would not help. I do believe ICE is assisting Federal Marshalls with the Somali fraud.

This is happening in Minneapolis and not other areas because no other local and state leader has been as vocal about resisting ICE as they have there. They are still vocal. They have whipped the crowd into a frenzy.

ICE has been in the city since before the agency was named ICE. They have not changed anything as far as how they handle their job. It is only now that it becomes an issue.

A mislead idiot who deserves to be jailed potentially. I’m not entirely sure what he did illegal to hinder the officers.

Certainly shouldn’t be shot on his hands and knees like a dog.

Domestic terrorism requires threat to human life

Exactly why they should focus on cooperative red areas

They were going through with deportations in Minneapolis during the Biden years, I agree.

The video shows him going for something when he was pushed up to the front of the car. They take him to the ground, he’s resisting, regains his feet: then you hear GUN, GUN, GUN. Shot.

Moral of the story: stay home, don’t interfere with federal agents doing their job, don’t bring a gun.

You’ll still be alive.

Considering the network of antifa goons they've uncovered there in addition to billions in fraud, it's clear Minnesota has been harboring fugitives, and fomenting insurrection. The time for them operating outside of the federal rule of law is over.

My guess is trying to put his phone in his pocket while being blasted in the face with mace

I dont think thr guy was a domestic terrorist. I just think he was a misguided idiot

Id prefer he wasnt dead. But cities shouldnt burn over it

His death is on the hands of the mayor and governor more than anybody. They are encouraging this and the mayor could barely hide his giddiness in the presser today

You just showed your concern is the "something else" portion

Interesting. So a guy that brings a pistol and 2 extra mags is not, in any form or fashion, 0% threat to human life? 0%?

It may be the 3 murders in 4 weeks. Just a hunch.

Walz made the right call by deploying the NG earlier. They can maintain peace, let ICE go after illegal criminals and hopefully quiet things down and nobody else gets hurt or killed.
