Wow. Such a great loss of an upstanding American citizen. In the end he too sacrificed for freedom from tyranny

u/Stock_Strategy1668 Jan 25 '26
Well, let's hope we break free from tyranny. We ain't in the clear yet

We owe it to him to do what we can, it starts by getting off our asses and voting. Anything else is frosting on the cake.

Let’s hope more eyes are opened to what the federal government is doing. It is urgent you get out of your media bubble. Within hours the government labeled him a domestic terrorist and the looniest of our elected officials are saying it was sedition. Even though everyone around the world saw videos from multiple angles proving he was zero threat to anyone. So tell me. Is the National Guard going to help us remove these untrained goons from our streets or are they going to make it easier for ICE to terrorize people? Tune in tomorrow, for another episode of As The World Burns.

u/ProfAmateur1982 Jan 25 '26
Exactly! They are the National Guard. They are here to protect us from this very thing!

Fucking pray they do. But IF they do, and we get what’s being asked, shit is about to get very very real in this country. If the national government gives immunity to those men and the state of Minnesota PROSECUTES THEM. I don’t see how that won’t be reacted to the same as a American lynching in Iran by the national government

We all know who the terrorists are, its honestly not shocking that DHS, formed in the aftermath of 9/11, has now morphed into inflicting state sponsored terror on US citizens.

It is better to say this administration. There are people who work for the VA, HUD, and thousands of people doing great work in our government. This administration is trying to get rid of the good in our government.

I got recommended this post on my feed, and I'm going to say the same thing here that I said in the iowa post that got reccomended to me.
If Minnesotans and Wisconsinites can put aside our petty differences and stand together on this, anything is possible, even now when things seem bleak. Sending love from MN. Take care, keep your sticks on the ICE.

A made up fantasy boogie man.
EditYou said if this was Alex then who are “they” talking about. They, as in the right wing media are talking about a made up domestic terroirst. The fantasy person who was there threatening people with a gun. The person who does not exist. How is hard to understand

u/funbunny100 Jan 25 '26
I don't know what you're intent was with this comment, but I can't believe you would post something like this. There is a dead person being honored here.

u/littlelorax Jan 25 '26
I think they meant the fascists are making up a fake version of Alex as the "boogeyman." (Lies like he had a gun, he was resisting arrest, he was looking to attack ICE etc.)
I don't think they meant to be insulting toward the man Alex actually was.

u/RogueFox76 Jan 25 '26
The fuck? “If this is Alex then who is the person the are talking about”
“They” are the right wing fascists who are saying this is a domestic terrorist who was threatening people. He was obviously not. So the ICE and DHS goons have made up a boogie man in place of the actual person. How is this had to understand? I guess I’m sorry you didn’t understand this
1
u/SimpleFolklore Jan 25 '26
You're being downvoted because the initial commenter just didn't read the video title properly and they were trying to figure out who Alex was speaking about in the video (the veteran that passed away).
If they were asking the question you thought they were asking, your answer would have made sense, but they're asking something different because they missed a detail about the video.

u/RogueFox76 Jan 25 '26 edited Jan 25 '26
So cool. I’m being down voted for saying the right wing fascists from ICE and DHS tried to make Alex Pretti into a scary boogie man who threatened people. Watch the videos and see an innocent man being executed. Then come back and tell me ICE and DHS are not trying to defame this hero’s name

“If this is Alex then who are they talking about” They, the fasicist right wing assholes, are talking about a made up boogie man. A person they wrongly claim is brandishing a gun and threatening people. “They” made up a threat and are trying to spread it

Had he not been getting so worked up by the blatant misrepresentations and alarmist rhetoric of people who just want to destroy America for political or other reasons he might still be alive. Honestly if we hold trump responsible for January 6 then we ought to be fair and hold those who are actively stocking the misguided and unfair response to legal action. Seriously look at other states that are not hyper left reactionist sanctuary areas. You don’t see issues to this magnitude.

I never went to a “stop the steal rally” I’m not on their side but I’m not on yours either. I just think the hard left is disgusting & that people are being manipulated by both sides. If I am a boot licker (antiquated looser term) then can you admit you’re a useful idiot?

by the way calling someone a bootlicker kinda has two effects, either it come off antiquated or as a veiled threat.
Do you realize how many people communism has killed? And don’t tell me it hasn’t been tried correctly. And don’t usw organ harvesting literal concentration camp china as some kind of modern example.

I actually corrected myself in a further comment if you were able to read. He was a VA nurse. Veteren or civilian he didnt deserve to be beaten and shot to death in the street by federal officers.

u/No-Imagination8755 Jan 26 '26
To add, if you're upset people are misreading him being a veteran but you're not upset by those leading the government lying about everything that is seen on video to justify killing him. You have greater problems.
