If you want to look at this situation from the narrowest of perspectives, then so be it.  But here is no conversation to be had with you. 

They were clearly standing in the street, blowing whistles, and blocking traffic. That’s obstruction. 

Alex Pretti wasn't. He was just filming them with his camera phone, then helped to pick up a woman they brutally pushed down, then was pepper sprayed, tackled and shot multiple time. Can't see any obstruction on his part in any of this.

How weak must a man be to spend so much time attacking dead people…?

The violent agitator brought a gun and 30+ rounds of ammo to a riot. He wanted to inflict heavy casualties. Luckily the threat was eliminated before he could draw his weapon.

What I will never understand is why they never give a dam if 50 black people shoot each other every weekend in Chicago. Why is that never one of their causes?

You conveniently leave out the fact he was in the street directing traffic . I can only assume it’s out of dishonesty 

Quote

Pretti is on video directing SUVs to form a barricade on the street, which is what prompted the first confrontation with officers.

Was he not blocking traffic while recording with his phone?  You say he was only there to document. I say he was there to provoke an action and document it.  That’s two different things.  Unfortunate situation but he put himself in that position.

I hope this is the outcome. We need to promote legal immigration for a whole bunch or reasons.  We have to know who’s here and get the bad guys out first. It’s a shame Biden didn’t work on immigration reform instead of just opening the border. 

The following is just my opinion: It will take either an overwhelming majority of Dems in Congress, OR a Republican president to reform immigration. IMO the reason is sad but simple. All it will take is for one immigrant to commit a crime after immigration reform and the R’s will attack Dems on that for years to come.

Are clearly racist. You NEVER hear them champion for the blacks in Chicago who are wiping each other out. Nothing to see there!

2 WHITE Violent agitators killed and they go crazy. Hundreds of blacks die and not a word. 

They are obviously racist

If you watch the video, he saw a car coming, stepped aside, and waved them through. In fact, he was careful NOT to block traffic.

He then assaulted a woman after being hit by pepper spray—presumably disoriented from the spray. And he had a loaded gun in his waistband.

That is a lie. None of the videos show him assaulting the woman the agents brutally pushed down.

In addition:

A witness in a federal court filing said Pretti was one of three people pepper-sprayed by agents and was attempting to help a woman up when he was tackled by the agents.

That’s not how I see it. A black SUV actually had to move to the right and drive in the parallel parking area to get around him.

It doesn't appear that way from videos I have seen. He is walking towards a small group of civilians standing in the middle of a street where a person has recently been detained on the ground. The civilians are speaking to federal agents. Mr. Pretti appears to be filming the scene, and he walks closer to the federal agents while holding his phone.

I guess we’re watching different videos or you’re being dishonest.  He put himself in the middle of a police action with a firearm. That’s a bad place to be. Any responsible gun owner would understand that.

IMO he saw women being abused and put their safety ahead of his own.

Having to drive around somebody seems to be quite triggering for ICE, as this is the 2nd murder they’ve carried out supposedly for that minor inconvenience.

If they used that policy in DC, they’d have killed half the city by now. I cannot tell you how many cars stopped in a driving lane I have to go around every single day….

He made bad decisions by interjecting himself into an active police operation while carrying a gun. If he stands on the sidewalk or doesn’t have a gun, he’s or alive today. It’s unfortunate.

Some people think it’s worth it to stand up for their fellow humans against armed gangs, even if it costs their life.

Stop lying.  He was helping these women.

He was pepper sprayed, probably couldn't see.  He either grabbed her thinking she was gestapo or his clothing was caught on her clothing.

Hey racist, why are you only worried Leftist Whites? 

Why aren't you out there? Are you too worried about being morally superior or are you going to do something. 

Tell me about all the Blacks who were killed this weekend. Your blatant racism it painfully obvious.

Not sure what’s more pathetic:

1) The POTUS deliberately creating a tinderbox situation where people are likely to get hurt or killed for partisan reasons.

2) Hate America armchair warriors cheering it on.

There is always a root cause, underlying issue that starts these things. This all can be traced back to Biden`s derelict of duty as POTUS.  Biden does his job none of this ever happens and he would most likely still be POTUS.

Did you see Pretti assault that Woman? Can you believe it? You're an advocate for Women, do you defend this behavior?
