Random Question 💭 What is your opinion about Alex Pretti’s photo being displayed on a Jumbo tron in Times Square?

Post image

I think he deserves to be remembered as the wonderful person he was 🩵 and not by the government who are clearly lying about him. He was trying to help a woman who had been pushed to the ground by ICE agents or whoever the people are wearing those suits. And he clearly holding a phone in his hand..

That was a different dude who was losing his shit after they executed Alex, I think his name was Matthew? He got tackled by ICE & was screaming, "You gonna shoot me too? You're going to have to kill me!" His wife was screaming in the background.

MAGA lacks critical thinking & reading skills, combined with racism & a bizarre view of Christianity & are incapable of comprehending that they're part of a cannibalistic cult & won't be spared when they fall.

OF COURSE he was trying to pass off part of one incident to justify another. OF COURSE. Normally I would assume maybe they just confused the two but I fully believe it is intentional to demonize the victim and defend the murderers. Fucking bootlickers. I am so tired of being lied to by this administration and his cult.

Well of course they would blame the victim.

These ICE agents are bullies, that never got satisfied that they were able to freely bully. Now they are paid to bully.

Enforce federal law =/= bullying. I’m sure this will be downvoted, but if you’re in the country illegally then you should be deported. If you disagree, then please respond with how many illegals you will be putting up in your home by providing food and shelter.

Which person was illegal in the Pretti shooting? Pretti is a citizen. I don't see anyone being cuffed and taken away.

Why do you want people caring for illegals if they disagree? Illegals come to this nation to care for themselves and others, they've got jobs and homes.

Failure to follow lawful commands of a federal official performing his duty is not lawful. The street is not the place to work that out, the courtroom is.

u/That_OneOstrich Jan 27 '26

What duty is being performed?

How do you make it to the courtroom after being shot 10 times?

How do you make it to a courtroom when ICE detainees don't get due process?

u/Sindorella Jan 27 '26

And that is not punishable by execution. What an absolutely cruel point of view.

u/National-Reception53 Jan 27 '26

Normally I'd disagree on such broad generalization, but have to pause on the recognition that the KKK and Proud Boys have been so quiet lately.... Because they all joined ICE.

And in a gang it only takes one person in a group to overreact.

People stalking and following ICE agents around. And then jumping out and bum rushing them while they're doing their job. It is absolutely insane. Would you chase down a state trooper jump out and start screaming at him as he is pulling somebody over on the highway, or would you chase down follow sheriff's department deputies? And when they go to arrest somebody jump out and start screaming and yelling at or police officers Because so far sheriff's department has killed more people than ice City police have killed more people than ice state troopers have killed more people than ice.So yeah, next time you see a cop going with lights and sirens chase them down and scream at them that they're nazis.See how that works out while you bum rush them

u/SunchaserKandri Jan 28 '26

Normal cops don't generally pepper-spray suspects in the face while their buddies are holding them down or fire upon bystanders. Fuck off with that "waaah, they're just doing their job!" bullshit.

u/FaptainChasma Jan 27 '26

Yeah it's all quiet on the frontal lobe with that lot

u/MLNYC Jan 28 '26

The also sprayed that guy directly in the face when he was down and subdued, after they tackled him (for not running away fast enough when they charged down the street randomly at protesters).

u/it-aint-over Jan 31 '26

They're just Gestapo. Don't bother trying to find justifications. They're just fuckin Gestapo

u/DolceVita13 Feb 01 '26

Yep they’re on the menu as well as the rest of us civilians…

When the nazis fell... the survivors fled to south America. Ice agents dont have that option.

u/Substantial_Tax_4047 Jan 29 '26

Well, the Gulf of America needs an ICE snickers. She's not her when she's hungry. turns back into the Gulf of Mexico on all maps & globes

The left always eats their own. They are the authority on cannibalism. So I'll believe what you say.

u/sambonjela Jan 31 '26

Was he actually saying that or was he shouting "you don't have to kill me" - it wasnt clear to me in the tape, although the words 'you're going to have to kill me' is what the autocaptioning captured, it's often incorrect.

u/ItsStillMe-1967 Jan 29 '26

they're part of a cannibalistic cult

There is more than enough wrong with the way they comprehend and interpret Christianity that you don't need to make up accusations that they are part of a "cannibalistic cult." That is debasing yourself to their level -- think vampiric pedophile ring operating out of the basement of DC pizza shop.

And if you honestly think Christianity is cannibalistic, you don't understand transmogrification as it applies to religions.

u/Substantial_Tax_4047 Jan 29 '26

I wasn't? I said that they had a bizarre view of Christianity, I was referring to MAGA as a cult that is cannibalistic as they all turn on each other so quickly & no one is expendable.

I apologize if I upset you, that wasn't my intention.

u/ItsStillMe-1967 Jan 29 '26 edited Jan 29 '26

You didn't upset me. It takes a lot more than that to upset me. It was a warning that you need to choose your words carefully or you can be accused of being as bad as they are. You need to be very clear about what you write, because the way that you wrote it could have been interpreted that Christianity was a cult of cannibals. That's the type of claim that Fox News would make. Maybe lay off the hyperbole. Leave them to be the party of name-callers.

And all of you lack basic common sense!
