In Minneapolis, federal agents tackled Alex Jeffrey Pretti. He was a 37-year-old ICU nurse for the local VA hospital. Video from the scene shows Pretti was trying to help another person get up after she had been violently pushed to the ground by the agents. The agents surround Pretti, shot pepper spray into his face, then pulled him to the ground from behind and beat him ruthlessly. An agent appears to take a gun out of Pretti’s waistband during the struggle, then turns and leaves with it. (Pretti had a license to carry and WAS NOT wielding the gun at any time.) He is then shot. He seems to be dead. Nine more shots rang out, as agents continued to fire into his body. It looked like an execution. Before his body was cold, our government lied about what happened — lied about what we could see with our own eyes. We cannot allow our government to get away with this. THERE HAS TO BE LEGITIMATE INVESTIGATION OF THE KILLING OF ALEX PRETTI. THERE HAS TO BE A LEGITIMATE INVESTIGATION FOR THE KILLING OF RENEE GOOD. OUR GOVERNMENT IS TRYING TO GET AWAY WITH MURDER!!!! DO NOT VOTE TO GIVE ICE/DHS ANY MORE FUNDS UNTIL AND UNLESS THEY ARE BROUGHT UNDER CONTROL AND THEIR VIOLENCE IS STOPPED.
