With mere seconds and a gun that was in his hand, they reacted in self defense.

Is the gun being in his hand on video or are you making that part up?

He was not there to protest.

No ID.

Fully loaded Sig.

Two additional mags.

~46 rounds.

Explain that TSoy.

He was there to kill....but the border patrol prevented him from completing his mission.

Sorry for your loss.

Well, not really.

I am a legal gun owner (whatever the frick that means).

I have a CHP.

I am required, by law (and the conditions of my permit) to advise law enforcement I am carrying when I interact with them in their LEO capacity. This is universal among states that issue such permits.

I bet this guy didn't do that and then decided to interfere in the arrest of the illegal, then resist arrest and made a move for his gun while resisting.

Making it up, they took it from him after they subdued him.

I agree, but if the guy running off had the guy's only gun, he therefore did not have access to it and therefore could not reach for it at the time of the shooting. I agree that knowing he has atleast one raises the tension level and you obviously cannot know if he has multiple, however, if he only has the one and the agents justification is he saw him reaching for it then it becomes harder to justify and looks worse for the agent/agenc


For those saying “well he could have had another gun,” well sure he could. But the argument for the officers just got harder.

1) He had a gun, and it appeared he was reaching for it so we had to shoot

vs

2) He had a gun, but we were able to disarm him. But we weren’t sure if he had another gun. so we shot.


The courts will find of those arguments much more compelling than the other.

The first video was unclear, but that is murder. Holy shite. These untrained morons have me supporting Twin Cities progressives. Never thought I'd see that day. For the record, I have been in more threatening situations than that, many times. We didn't do shite like that to Iraqis, armed or not, much less American citizens.


Sigh. Another “Audie Murphy” type coming here to lecture us all. Suspect had a gun, and was never subdued. A inherent public safety risk was neutralized. Clean shoot. Good kill.

Woof, if they approached him simply filming and then beat him up and took his gun and then killed him they need to be dealt with.

Exactly. These retards have no way of knowing if he was legally allowed to possess a firearm or not.

Nor do they know if the shooting was justified or not at this stage, but they’re ready to deny due process in this case for advancement of the cause

Is there evidence or even a statement from the admin that this occurred?

They identified him as a threat, he was carrying 2 extra mags on him, would you say he was not a threat?

Again, are you going to say that his behavior and actions were not a credible threat to officers?

Permit to Carry frequently asked questions
Yes, upon request of a peace officer, a permit holder must disclose to the officer whether or not the permit holder is currently carrying a firearm.


Did he disclose?

Or did he confront LEO aggressively and threateningly, stalking their movements.

Why was he carrying no ID and extra Mags.

We allow police to make the call about imminent threat, in this case they sure seem to be right.

The videos don’t look great but at the same time I don’t see how anyone can make a definitive conclusion one way or another. The guy can’t be interfering to that degree, while armed. Not going to end well.

They went out of their way to go after him and another woman. The bootlicking on this board extreme.

Clearly you all don't want to believe your eyes when watching the videos of the interaction. Guy is killed for filming and coming to the defense of a woman being pushed around by BP agent.

Is that a Sig p320? Surprised he didn't shoot himself first

It's a 226. High end.

And I own several 320s and have even drop tested them. The accidental discharge issue has been fixed.

That's one way to look at it. Another way to look at it is he was led astray by liberal politicians and media telling him to shot ICE agents. Having a gun made him feel brave even though he had no intention of using it. His bravado led him to confront armed and dangerous law enforcement officers who are already tense and on heightened alert. And now he's dead because of it.

What? Why would that be a threat?

I haven’t really seen that part

I doubt he did. That’s still no reason to shoot him. Did he even reach for his gun at any point? Why would they shoot him there?

Are you sure he confronted them? I’ve heard they confronted him.

Has it been confirmed that he was disarmed prior to the shooting? The video I’ve seen appears to the show an agent walking away with it before they unload. Again, if that’s the case, training is a real concern no matter your stance on ICE.
