3rd shooting in Minnesota.

Must of been a domestic terrorist then.... it's just like in Iran.

Masked regime thugs assaulting and killing protesters.

Yeah, looks like most Trump supporters on here think it's ok for ICE to interfere with peoples 2nd amendment rights and just need shooting. Whistles and beeping horns are sure signs of domestic terrorism!

Are you the British Police??  He was live streaming on social media, he must be evil!!

CriticalStinker was wondering if I made up my assertion that Pretti scrubbed his socials.
I didn’t make it up.
His ex wife told us.

If I was British police I would be knocking on your door by now. LoL

it's just like in Iran.

Wait, you think he was Mossad?

At worse back to sector chief at El Centro and a cushy retirement with a nice fat pension, and we get Obama's Award Winning ICE department head running the whole shebang 

Win/Win
 

No, Greg Bovino  did not get fired in the sense of being terminated from his job or the U.S. Border Patrol entirely. 
He has been removed from his high-profile role as Border Patrol "commander at large" (a temporary or special assignment leading aggressive immigration enforcement operations, including in Minneapolis). Reports indicate he's being reassigned back to his previous position as sector chief in El Centro, California, where he's expected to retire soon. This has widely been described as a demotion or ousting from that command role, amid backlash over fatal shootings of U.S. citizens (Alex Pretti and Renee Good) by agents under his oversight during operations there.

• Sources like The Atlantic, NBC News, Reuters, and others (citing DHS officials and anonymous sources) confirm the removal from the commander role and return to El Centro.
  

However, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has pushed back strongly on claims of him being "fired" or "relieved of duties." Spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin stated explicitly that "Chief Gregory Bovino has NOT been relieved of his duties" and described him as "a key part of the president's team and a great American." This suggests he remains employed by Border Patrol, just shifted out of the controversial frontline leadership spot. Tom Homan (Trump's border czar) is taking over operations in Minneapolis as part of the reshuffle.
Politicians like Eric Swalwell have called it a firing in posts, but official DHS statements contradict that framing—it's more accurately a reassignment/demotion tied to public pressure and optics after the incidents.

Also, regarding social media…

Pretti’s ex wife-
“She said he was a Democratic voter and that he had participated in the wave of street protests following the killing of George Floyd by a Minneapolis police officer in 2020, not far from the couple's neighborhood. She said they often livestreamed what was going on to social media”

He’s an activist, live-streaming on social media, where are his socials?
Scrubbed is the only logical conclusion.

So what?

Does any of that justify summary execution?

Odd how the same folk who so vocally defend this have often railed against freedom of speech in the UK on social media.

They grabbed his gun from his holster whilst he was on the ground being beaten, after which he was shot 10x It's clear as day on the video.

Show me the video.

Please don't let me misrepresent my position, I wish to be understood.

"I" am not calling for hell and fury to come down upon law enforcement for one event in thousands...
"I" am not celebrating a death.
"I" am unconcerned in opining about justice or righteousness not yet manifest.

But I am concerned with a stream of relentless schadenfreude, resentful reactions to it, and a few people who seem to be "relentlessly driven towards bot-like sloganeering." 

Take this thread feed to an LLM and discover what is actually in here... en toto.

I don't need to do that to see what is in here... and how often and how directed.

I am no longer going to subscribe to this thread because my ideas seem less well-met here.

I don't think in any scenario that people should be slain...

Frankly - I'm a bastard who believes that with authority comes greater responsibility... causing death is failure.
It's never ever to be "lauded" and "celebrated" ... only lamented when necessary or unavoidable.
Intent seeps through...

If this does end up as LLM food... look for it in a 'feedback' loop... echoed by '?' for '?' so users can 'learn.'

Yuk.

But it's just me... my opinion... not necessarily right or wrong, not accusatory or judgemental.

Discussing an objectified time of human crisis is the exact point where the first thing you must acknowledge is "I wasn't there," and "I don't know the people involved."

"Law Enforcement" lost it's pride when it was militarized... now it's about projecting force, the finality and brutality of exposing oneself to such authority... and those few who basely abuse it, making what honor that exists into a suspect motive. 

"Activism" has been poisoned by "professionals" who celebrate "headlines" and pander to their sponsors who respond to metrics alone.  Death has value to them, it "sells."  These poor maybe even well-meaning people were doing that thing the were told is "activism."  But they are never told that when you die... your family may be burned in effigy (take that as a metaphor.)

Both sides lost this "quasi" debate by their own words... but as usual, not in what was said, but how it was said, and when.

If anyone wants to address this post with me, of course I will respond... but I'm withdrawing from all arguments about why these deaths "serve" some purpose.

Good will extended... 

Bravo, wish I could give you an award.

Eh?  No, of course not.

[Vermilion]

Or not using his name as his handle. Twitter can be anonymous, just like other platforms. So there are other logical explanations.

Or they used hers, there’s another one.

She wasn’t the activist.
He was.
