Don’t confuse wanting an end to the protesting with this. These moderates are not suddenly surprised the Trump admin are deporting people.

That's a high-end custom build. Even if law enforcement WERE using throw-down guns, they'd be Taurus and Hi-Point, not $2,000+ tricked-out Sig Sauers.

The killing people would be the problem

The second amendment is irrelevant in this situation. There were credible threats made throughout the week advocating violence against Federal Agents. There were multiple arrests made as well. This guy presented himself to federal agents as armed and confrontational. Under no circumstances can you allow an unknown, confrontational, armed individual to remain armed in this situation. Furthermore, trying to hide this individuals actions behind the 2nd amendment is asinine. You have the right to bear arms and you may very well be within your rights to open or conceal carry, but you also have the obligation to exercise good judgment in exercising those rights. This guy inserted himself into a legal law enforcement operation armed with a handgun which any RESPONSIBLE gun owner will tell you is a poor exercise of judgment.

Tell them the guy was working to disenfranchise their 2024 Trump votes.

Whelp, this thread just took a turn towards the shitter.

Having a weapon is legal. Resisting and obstructing is not. Resisting without touching his weapon does not give anyone the right to shoot him.
It really is a simple concept.

Protests against Trump have entered their 11th year.

There is video of an ICE agent taking the guy's gun and as he's backing away with the gun in hand, one of the ICE agents shoots the guy while he's on his knees being held down by three other agents, then the others back away as the ICE agent pumps several rounds into what is most likely now a dead body, this is not good for ICE.

If thats the gun then its justified 100%, the video resolution being extremely bad makes it difficult to actually tell
I don't know that it is for certain but if it is then most certainly he was going to be shot
If he was struggling at any point just to reach for it or was trying to take an officer's gun then for sure he was going to get shot
The video above claims to show a cop come away with a gun whether that was his gun or another ICE officer's gun or the perp's IDK
In the end he chose to obstruct ICE resisted arrest & from what I am hearing he possibly bit a finger off so there is really not much sympathy I have for him

Unless these hypothetical moderates view the protestors as obstacles to deportation and the rule of law.

I believe both lurk so you probably just told them yourself

That’s exactly it. He never intended to use it and that’s what got him killed. It made him feel brave when confronting law enforcement. That bravado shrunk up like his mincey balls when someone pushed back. Never carry a gun unless you know you can use it if need be.

Idk what the deceased was doing before this but he’s not much of a threat. ICE guy seems to start this whole thing and then they kill him.

Not their job. They have other LEO duties

I don’t think violently interjecting yourself into ongoing police matters in an already tense, near rolling boil situation, is a good idea. These situations look to be escalated by the ones who made these poor decisions.
