He did. We will never forget.
It is time to abolish ICE and impeach and remove Trump.
**Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti
Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti**
We are heartbroken but also very angry.
Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact.
I do not throw around the ‘hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed.
**Please get the truth out about our son.** He was a good man. Thank you.
Pretti and Good, murdered by the Bad and the Ugly
If his murder is what motivates people to rise up and not take this anymore, then he will have made a very important difference.
That last part is the definition of heartbreaking. I will remember him as a good man, that I promise.
Didn’t you hear? He’s a domestic terror assassin now!
Miller should be thrown into the sea
Edit: rest in peace, brave man.
I firmly believe that his murderer will be brought to justice someday. It might not be tomorrow, or next week, or even next year, but that POS will see consequences.
*Executed. *Murdered. SAY IT RIGHT.
His fam doesn’t love him unless they throw a klan rally with world class fireworks and Stephen Miller plagiarizing Joseph Goebbels
Alex died a hero. I’m so sad
Trump and his entire administration needs to be removed and carted off to jail. Democrats can’t pussyfoot around this issue any longer. General strikes need to be organized in every major city. It’s no longer a matter of if but when he decides to use the insurrection act. It’s time we got ahead of him instead of reacting. Use that anger not for violence, but to mobilize and organize.
Down with Trump! Out with ice!
Hopefully all the names of those ICE agents are released soon, they are all going to jail for murder.
Also, Walz has been doing nothing. No ICE agents have been arrested yet. I guess Walz knew he was not going to stand up for citizens and justice so that is why he dropped out of being governor.
Walz is a such a disappointment for not arresting these ICE agents. All the crimes are on video and the state does nothing.
There are 100K illegals in Minnesota and 2 million in Texas. All these ICE agents should be in rural Texas towns if they cared about illegals.
Every Conservative that voted for and supports Trump is a giant fucking piece of trash and a stain on all of our lives. There are no ‚good‘ Conservatives, just abhorrent Nazi supporters that deserve nothing but the worst
Alex Pretti died a hero. He made a difference. His final words were, „Are you okay?“ He was a healer who died protecting someone.
Rest in power, Alex Pretti.

I want to point this out again:
About 13,000 illegal immigrants were estimated to be in Minneapolis, and 130,000 in the state. The total ice docket for Minnesota of those either in custody or in active proceedings is 130,000, and they state they have arrested 10,000 in Minneapolis. Of the ones detained, 5 percent have a record of violence, despite continually featuring extreme violence among those captured.
The city is ranked 25th in violence. Murders heavily reduced in 2024 and then in 2025, with 64 for the year of 2025. Two dead, even justified, at the hands of enforcement in 2026 is a significant portion of violent deaths.
3000 agents are in the city where there is a police force of 600.
There are 3000 agents in Texas where they say 2.1 million illegal immigrants are.
Our total US population for the last decade has had slower growth, at about 8 percent. Despite saying 20 million illegal immigrants flooded the US in the last 4 years, the total US population including everyone went from 331 million to 340 million. Trump says 2.5 million illegal immigrants are out of the country in one year. That would take out 25 percent of the entirety of the added population in the last 4 years, reducing 3 percent growth in 4 years to 2.25 percent.
Is this level of deployment of immigration enforcement in Minneapolis warranted? Does the leadership deploying them demonstrate professionalism, a value for proportionate response, circumspect accountably?
Does an aggressive posture like this create the negative feedback loops of mutual distrust that so much research has discussed: https://law.yale.edu/sites/default/files/area/center/justice/document/5697d9ee08aea2d74375cb87.pdf
Today Republicans learned that even Dems can have legally concealed guns and they don’t know how to process such information
Deport everyone who is part of ICE
He did. He courageous fight against ICE will be the catalyst that destroys it and saves thousands of lives going forward.
He will have.
I sincerely hope the difference that he ends up making at this point, is the end of all of this bullshit The Fanta Führer and his administration has caused.
Just want to reiterate there’s a clear angle of one of these ICE pigs clapping w joy right after they murder him
The fire rises.
I hate the fact I have to say I’m an American
I doubt you’ll ever see this, but Susan and Michael, your son was the very definition of a hero. I have no words to say how sorry I am for your loss and for the slander of your son’s name which you must now endure. We don’t buy their bullshit for a second. You clearly raised an amazing young man and I’m sure you are extremely proud. I’m praying you find peace, justice, and comfort in this seemingly impossible time. The people are with you.
Well… He said did say, “ I could shoot somebody and I wouldnt lose voters”. Looks like he was correct. How are we even here? 😡
If you watch the video of the guy in the jacket that takes the gun from Alex the video before he does that shows him kicking one or two service weapons away from the scene. I think a couple but at least one agent had lost their weapons. So they were fighting with him and they likely heard the guy in the grey jacket announce he cleared the gun but who knows what they hear and then they may feel for their own weapons and realize it’s missing and fear takes over.
Why the Administration is lying about his aggression is strange and the fact that they claim to have given him first aid immediately is also clearly false. Above makes more sense than any other scenario and would be manslaughter va murder.
I am a Canadian, and to me this is what a real American hero looks like.
I hope that this is the straw that breaks the camels back
Alex made a difference in the world, and we will not forget him.
His soul is marching on!
Yeah. This one seems clear as day with murder. There isn’t deniability like Renee. He had no weapon at the point he was flying, he wasn’t even trying to flee. He was calm. Had his hands up. This one is murder and needs to act as such
So dont make his death means nothing. Do something America.
Where is the recording from his phone???
There is no way we can let them try to turn this honorable man into a terrorist!
No. Way.
They don’t get to take his life and then stomp on his legacy!
*They* are the terrorists.
I’m sure conservatives in their forums are happy to sacrifice more people at the alter of facism
Alex is the epitome of a TRUE AMERICAN HERO and PATRIOT! My heart is broken that this world has lost an angel. May the world’s dismay and heartache offer the Pretti family some comfort. 🇺🇸🌹🙏
God, America is a shithole
The Nazis who killed him need to be put in jail and left to rot till they die.
His parents told him *’do not do anything stupid’*, but then he went to a protest with a gun and wasn’t carrying in [accordance to law](https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/cite/624.714/pdf). Early reports state he had a gun, 2 magazines, and **no ID**:
That link above states:
> The holder of a permit to carry must have the permit card and a driver’s license, state identification card, or other government-issued photo identification in immediate possession at all times when carrying a pistol
they did make a difference.
they are a hero
God fucking damn this was tough to watch on video..
Do we at least know he died fast? I can’t imagine having bullets in my back while being squashed by 5 other goons…..
His name is Alex Pretti
