The "bystander" was walking along with the officers blowing a whistle, and the guy that got between that bystander ("bystander") carried a gun. I don't think it's wise to interfere with police work by walking with them and doing that whistle thing and it's neither wise to bring a gun into this situation.

I'm sure the officers to whom this happened aren't happy either as this turned out, but I don't think they are the the only ones to blame.

Similar with the woman who was shot: should you be doing any police getaways or even driving towards any police officer?

> carried a gun.

legally. Also the gun he visibly did not reach for. And the very same gun that was carried out of the scene seconds before the first shot was fired.

> I don't think it's wise to interfere with police work

So what? If they were trained for anything other than escalation nothing would have happened, they're ""professional"" ""law enforcement officers"" from a federal agency, not a biker gang

> I'm sure the officers to whom this happened aren't happy either as this turned out

One of them literally claps his hands, it's on video, lmao, you can't make that shit up

> Similar with the woman who was shot: should you be doing any police getaways or even driving towards any police officer?

The one who got killed by a shot to the temple which basically proves the officer was completely out of the way at that time. The one where the officer then illegally fled the scene, packed up his house and then later pretended to be heavily injured and have "internal bleeding" despite being seen totally unharmed multiple times earlier.

What do you think of these sub 80iq ICE retards who just tried to break in the Ecuadorian consulate? Just doing their job I assume? Come on, keep on gargling these balls, idk if you expect to get a medal or something...

  • How it went down was while the gun was taken away, somebody yelled "gun", then guns were drawn, then the victims gun went off which triggered police starting shooting. If this were the events, the first shot was what unfortunately triggered the tragedy that followed, as the law enforcement officers probably thought that the person being arrested was shooting.

    To me this looks like an unfortunate sequence of events rather than your judgement from the high horse of perfect information.

    If you go to a protest, best leave your (legal) weapons at home, don't interfere nor resist law enforcement.

    Also, if you want a better government, you should vote one in the office and not fuel these events after the fact.

    • Where is it confirmed that Pretti's gun went off? The only place I see this theory is /r/conservative...

      You're arguing that an acceptable, albeit unfortunate, punishment for civil disobedience is state murder.

    • > then the victims gun went off which triggered police starting shooting.

      None of the videos show that at all, the victim's gun is safely brought away, clearly visible from multiple point of view

      What's also clearly visible is that a masked gentleman from ICE get his gun out, instantly put his finger on the trigger and aim for the victim's back/head

      > rather than your judgement from the high horse of perfect information.

      Again, they're not a biker gang, they should be well trained and not shoot when someone yells "gun". Some seem to have been scared by their shots coming from their fellow brain dead colleagues.

      > don't interfere nor resist law enforcement.

      Yes, lick the boot and let the popo do whatever they want regardless of legality

      Of course when all you do is gargle the popo's balls, follow orders, believe state propaganda and turn a blind eye when provided with video evidences the whole thing is a simple "unfortunate sequence of events", meanwhile in any other advanced societies it would be an instant scandal with severe repercussions on everyone involved
