Quote from: Brent on January 25, 2026, 11:55:57 AMDoes anybody think that shooting was not justified. They did disarm the guy.

 I dont know MN gun laws but its pretty consistent state to state that if you have a firearm and you are approaching law enforcement, you keep your hands raised and tell them immediately that you are in possession of a firearm and follow that up with "my liscence to carry is in my wallet". And keep those hands up and visable. These officers dont know you, they deal with unhinged people all day, and its incredible how fast someone can go from non-threatening to unloading rounds into another human. So they have to assume you are dangerous.....so hands have to be SEEN. Not down by your waist or behind you.

 You do NOT go running up to law enforcement with a firearm. Ever.

 You might not get shot. But if you do get shot...it will be justified.

 You cant just go "help" someone that law enforcement just put on the ground either. Thats dumb and possibly a felony.

 This guy fucked up all over the place.

 If you think law enforcement may be brutalizing someone, you film it from a safe distance and get that footage into the hands of whoever needs it for that person's court case....you NEVER interfer. You dont know why they even have that person.  Law enforcement typically doesn't just walk around beating people or throwing them around. Im sure it happens here or there....but its NOT some norm and if they are busy whooping someone's ass, odds are good that person has done something to bring this on themselves.  Getting involved is STUPID. And a felony. And even if that person is innocent and being abused by police.....you are definately not helping shit by jumping in to get your ass whooped too.  Staying away and filming it is vastly more helpful.

 The minute someone decides to play hero against law enforcement is the minute they get thrown to the ground, pepper sprayed in the eyes, possibly tased or shot.

 I really dont know why anyone would be stupid enough to try to fight officers of the law in the streets. Absolutely NO ONE has done that and won lol. NO police anywhere have ever said "well we were gonna bring you in, but you resisted so hard we are letting you go! Congratz!! Guess we wont arrest you after all!"  No. They will beat your ass until you are compliant and if you have a weapon or grab for theirs? Youre dead. Thats it for you.

 I dont get their end game. None of these brainwashed wackos are thinking any of this through.  If they are thinking this through and still doing it? They are psychotic.

 I've seen several tik toks of these liberals lefties talking about how they are ready to die by law enforcement.  Pumping themselves up to go get creamed by officers. Its wild. If i see more of them I'll post it. They are crazy.

 My man just chuckles and says "hey the problem is solving itself"

 He ain't wrong lmao

  The state government is actively behind this. There is nothing organic about it.

 I am convinced state police are dressed as civilians out there involved in the chaos. I think they WANT Trump to use the insurrection act and send military.

 MN is a fucking cesspool. Not even in CA are people doing this shit.

Quote from: Biggie Smiles on January 26, 2026, 10:56:32 PMICE officers were justified shooting his ass the minute he showed up with any hostile intent while carrying a loaded firearm

these guys are expected to make snap decisions that could mean life or death for themselves in a hostile environment where the stated goal of the people and even the politicians is to kill them

Couple that with the sleep deprivation they are subjecting these guys to night after night and the general emotional drainage and you have to ask yourself  -- even if this guy made a poor decision in retrospect can we hold him to it given the totality of the situation?

I for one would acquit the ICE officer NO MATTER what video you showed me -- wouldn't matter at all. Guy is well within the guardrails of self defense and the mob's daily activities alone are a testament to that.

Don't be lectured by people who cheer political violence and then claim the moral high ground.

- They laughed and celebrated when Charlie Kirk was murdered.
- They praised and lionized Luigi Mangione.
- They mocked the attempted assassination of President Trump and said the shooter should've been better.
- They never mourned Ashley Babbitt.
- They never mourned Laken Riley.
- They never mourned Jocelyn Nungary.
- They never mourned Iryna Zarutska.

Chris Cuomo interviewed Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey. Mr. Frey told Mr. Cuomo that he is under no obligation to obey any laws that he personally does not like.

Quote from: Biggie Smiles on January 25, 2026, 12:41:03 PMYeah technically they did disarm him but I still say fuck him. How would an officer know he doesn't have something else on him that could be of harm?

I'm not willing to burden these people will all kinds of rules and stipulations when it comes to defending themselves in a hostile situation we are asking them to go into

Once you show aggression and make yourself a threat you are fair game and I really don't care about the intracate details that occur afterwards

Old saying. Don't want no trouble? Don't start none and there won't be none

Alex Pretti went there looking to break the law and get in the agent's faces while they do their jobs.

In Minneapolis, these rioters attacked our law enforcement officer and one of them bit off our HSI officer's finger.

Alex Pretti, the anti-ICE agitator who was shot in Minneapolis on Saturday, was told by his parents not to engage with federal officers while attending the protests in Minnesota.

QuoteIn recent conversations with their 37-year-old son, Pretti's parents had told him not to engage with federal officers. "We had this discussion with him two weeks ago or so, you know, that go ahead and protest, but do not engage, do not do anything stupid, basically," Michael Pretti added, per CBS News. "And he said he knows that. He knew that."

Quote from: Biggie Smiles on January 24, 2026, 09:45:46 PMIt is a testament to their strength, courage, commitment and training that they haven't wasted more of these fucking dipshits

I've watched at least 3 videos where I felt moving them down or spraying them with automatic weapons would have been totally justified

these ICE agents are better men than me

Did you know one ICE agent had his finger bitten off by one those feral white marxist thugs.
