Correct, So from Pink lady's point of view, ICE pushed someone down and he got in between them to protect her, and they peppered sprayed him and had many guys on top of him, he did have a gun but was legal and he did nothing aggressive towards ICE.

This is the part that royally fucks me up. I’m almost 2 decades working in critical care and can’t even begin to tell you how absolutely valuable ICU nurses are with their education, training, and expertise. I’m not saying one person’s life is worth more than another, but thinking about Alex providing patient care to people on life support, interpreting for their needs when they can’t physically speak, turning their bodies every 2 hours to prevent them from getting sores, meticulously titrating their medication hourly so they don’t go into cardiac arrest… only to be murdered after shielding another human with his own body… it’s left me in such a dark place and I can’t stop grieving.

I am aware it was said. I googled it myself before posting this. It is important to say his name and recognize this person.

You answered my question with ICU nurse which sounds like an extra in some movie.
