People will continue to believe whatever they want to believe about this tragedy regardless of what the facts from the investigation eventually show (much like the JFKA). What people who legally carry guns should already know is how to react if and when they are approached by law enforcement officer(s). First keep your hands out where they can be seen by the officer(s). Then tell the officer(s) that you have a loaded gun with you. This is to try to avoid any potential chance that the officer(s) might possibly think that you might be trying to reach for a gun to attack them. I think that this tragedy could have easily been avoided. Hopefully, a potentially life-saving lesson can be learned from this.

You seem to think it was the victim's fault.

You see to think it was the victim's fault.

We need to stop trying to blame everyone else and take responsibility for our own actions. I simply think that if he had reacted properly, he would most likely still be alive today.

Does "acting properly" involve not filming what the ICE agents were doing?

I am only posting how to react to LEOs in hopes that someone might learn something that could save their life someday if they found themselves in a similar situation. I am not interested in arguing about other aspects.

Well, does it?

   Pretti was 37 yrs old. Hunter Biden turns 56 next month. Let's stop talking about these ADULTS like they are babes in the woods. They have well more than enough life experiences to know what actions might put their life at risk. You go out into the public, on foot, carrying a concealed loaded gun, with an additional 2 fully loaded clips, and have NO ID on your person? This guy was seeking trouble. He found it.

This is absurd. Charley Kirk said everyone has the right to bring a firearm to a protest.

Question: Do you disagree with him?

Do you agree with him but only of all the T's are crossed and the I's dotted. No Misdemeanors. All the proper ID is carried with you. No J-walking. No having a broken taillight. Any slip up of this sort than the Federal Government has the right to immediately disarm you and shoot you on the spot. Absent any such slip up, the government must not take away your Second Amendment Rights.

WATCH: 'You can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns,' Trump says of Alex Pretti killing

So this is Trump saying "You can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns"

Now, without a doubt, Trump is going to walk back on this. But we know what he really wants. He wants total control. But he is never going to have total control, as long as the people have guns. So no matter what Trump says now, we know, that down the road, private ownership of guns is going away, once Trump gets total control.

If Trump ever gets total control, say "Bye  Bye" to your guns. Supporting Trump may be the dumbest thing the NRA ever did. The leadership of the NRA should resign over their endorsement of Trump. If you support the NRA, you need leaders who can sense danger and make sober decisions. You want leaders who have your back.
