It's really not good to be a Monday Morning Quarterback with LEO's doing a stressful job.

Yep. I agree.

This is the kind of thing the Left is angling for. And all of this is being orchestrated by big, dark money.

On the Left, they don’t give a crap about that dead dumbass. He is just a useful idiot served up as cannon fodder to further their goals, the foremost of which is to foment anarchy. This is what the Left does.

This is why two things need to happen: Invoke the Insurrection Act, and find out the sources of the money and organizers of this behavior.

What if the deceased had another gun on him. I’m not law enforcement. So I have no idea how I might react. I do not believe the officer who shot him is a cold blooded killer. He reacted our of fear and self preservation most likely. Why did that idiot brawl with federal agents?

This was a bad situation that escalated out of control but it is unwise to bring a gun to a riot, then make aggressive moves towards a police and then violently resist.

FWIW , the guy was pepper sprayed with Law enforcement grade pepper spray which is very nasty stuff.

He then got into a tussel with ICE officers which transfers the pepper spray to the officers. This messes with their breathing and vision - it's miserable.

Not sure the dude deserved to be shot, but the shooting was more than justified

The thing about bringing a gun while intentionally causing a violent altercation, is PERCEPTION. You can’t tame it.

One cop knowing the suspect had a gun, then he gets turned around not being able to see his hands, still thinking he has a gun..........

The officer perceived he was still a threat, and the perp got smoked.

"....analyzed ONE of the several videos..."
(emphasis mine)

I'd bet the video analyzed is one that doesn't accurately show what really happened.

And I'd bet that 'they' (the Antifa tech guys) are generating many fake AI videos that they will use to further enrage the public and try to overwhelm the good actual videos that show the Border Patrol / ICE guys involved in a justifiable shoot.
(A least I HOPE it was justified.)

Has it been verified he bit off the finger of an agent?

THOUSANDS of Trump supporters gathered on Jan 6th, 2021, and NOT ONE had a gun on them...why did he?

Bottom line - if you’re going to make trouble against police, it’s best not to be armed, as you’ll be terribly outnumbered.

Remember when some gang-banger in Atlantic City got shot by cops 45 times? The jackass who owns Alienware Holsters immediately came out and said it couldn’t possibly justified. Turns out the perp was out of his mind on PCP and showed no ill effect from about the first 12 hits. The grand jury returned a No True bill on all officers involved on all counts.

The press might call you a “gun rights advotate” but when you try to influence public opinion when you weren’t there and you’re going only by accouts in the press, you’re a jackass, too.

it looks like he’s disarmed before being shot,
= = =

But the most guns anyone carries is just one, right?

All their outrage goes like this. First, stir up every emotion, crazies posting everywhere (even here!) full-scale narrative barrage.

Then the truth comes out. The guy was on PCP. The lady turned his wheels toward the officer and he ended up in hospital. Pretti fought like a dog and bit a finger off an agent.

Few days later we know the story and the left runs on like no fact ever even happened. Last time there were burnings, Kyle Rittenhouse, “mostly peaceful” and ‘only’ a stolen election as a result. The problem now of course is the organizers are trying to start a color revolution and people are getting killed in small numbers now and very large numbers if they get their way.

I wonder what their take is on the shooting of Ashli Babbett and how consistent they will be...

I try not to go there for obvious reasons, but the Drudge Report is really fanning the flames.

Getting people killed is exactly what Gov Walz wants.

There are no circumstances in which a third-party confronting an LEO during an arrest operation, then physically assaulting them, all while carrying a firearm can be considered a good idea.

From what I have heard, the perp was in the process of biting off the finger of the ICE agent.

Should the officer act or not act?

Me, I’d shoot the person chewing off my finger.
