Alex was recording, which was well within his right, and was shielding other people from pepper spray. He was trying to help. You'll hear people blame him for having a gun, which he had a permit to carry and the only time it was out of the holster was when ICE took it before shooting him. You'll see people claim he shot at officers, but that is a blatant lie.

The Minneapolis Brass Band (Brass Solidarity) improvises a mash-up of "Stand By Me" and "The People United Will Never Be Defeated" at a memorial for Alex Pretti. [X]

These faces have been and will be in my mind all month, and likely they will never leave. Worse even, there will likely be more added. To artists and those of us who can speak up, we NEED to speak up—we are as much a part of this world and society as everyone else, and we can create things that can do even just a little good/reflection/solidarity. I’m so angry, which only means I’m NOT going to stop speaking out and doing what I can to remind people that this is so wrong and evil. Abolish ICE!!!

Every time I see a picture of this 5-year-old little boy with his bunny hat and Spiderman backpack, I get so angry and my heart breaks. Incredible... simply incredibly inhuman. 😤🥺😡

If the government can sentence you to immediate death in broad public/daylight for even the suspicion you might have a gun, let alone actually having one, you don't actually have a Right to bear arms nor anything else.

You have conditionally-enforced Privileges, and they're being actively and deliberately stolen from you.
