> Being on the ground doesn't remove any potential that he could be dangerous.

When the shots were fired, he was restrained by several agents and did not pose any immediate threat.

> Not sure how many times he was shot

It was ten shots, fired by two agents. That is a lot of shots.

Yes, the shooting itself was very likely an accident by grossly incompetent agents. (You can hear an agent shout the word "gun", which probably triggered the other agents to immediately start firing.)

However, it was the ICE agents who started the very situation that led to this tragedy: One agent violently pushed a women from behind. Why? Alex tried to help her and he immediately got peppersprayed in the face. Why? Then he was wrestled to the ground. Why? Then he was beaten to the head. Why?

All these actions are already outrageous in themselves. It is worrying how police brutality has been normalized in the US.

It is pretty rich to blame Alex when it was really the ICE agents who started this whole mess!

In fact, the videos are so damning that even Stephen Miller had to backpedal and admit that these agents "may not have been following proper protocol".

What confidence do you have in DHS to lead an independent investigation of their own people?
