If the facts of what's going on in Minneapolis that I stated sound racist to you, maybe that should tell you something. I mean after all you're the one who brought up the word racist. I do know that a lot of people who are brown are being targeted just because they're brown. Even off duty police officers that are brown have been targeted. You can choose to call that anything you see fit.



I haven't heard of anyone being killed by ICE in any of those locations.

January 2026, widespread "ICE Out for Good" protests erupted across Florida, with significant demonstrations in Orlando, Gainesville, Jacksonville, Stuart, and Vero Beach, driven by outrage over intensified immigration enforcement and a fatal agent-involved shooting in Minneapolis. Protesters demand the abolition of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), citing violent, abusive practices, and opposing a proposed 1,500-bed detention center in Orlando.

January 2026, widespread protests erupted across Texas—including Houston, Austin, Dallas, and San Antonio—targeting increased ICE operations and the fatal shooting of a woman by an ICE agent in Minneapolis. Demonstrators are protesting heightened, Trump-era deportation policies and the use of local jails for arrests, with events continuing in response to increased federal enforcement.

When do you plan to do that?

Man shot and killed by federal agents identified as Alex Pretti

The man's parents confirmed the 37-year-old man's death to the Associated Press.

MINNEAPOLIS — The man shot and killed by a federal agent in Minneapolis on Saturday has been identified as Alex Pretti.

The Associated Press reported Pretti's parents confirmed his identity, and that he worked as an ICU nurse.

State records show Pretti was issued a nursing license in 2021. KARE also confirmed he worked for some time at the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs as a nurse.

Members of the Minneapolis Senate delegation released a statement also identifying Pretti.

"While we wait for more details, we share our deepest condolences to Alex Pretti, his family and friends, and the entire community impacted by this violence. We pledge to do everything in our power to make sure that those responsible are held accountable," the statement reads, led by DFL Senate President Bobby Jo Champion.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara previously said the man killed was a 37-year-old Minneapolis resident, a U.S. citizen, and a legal gun owner.

Family members told the AP was an avid outdoorsman who loved getting in adventures with Joule, his beloved Catahoula Leopard dog, who also recently died. He had participated in protests following the killing of Renee Good by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Law Enforcement officer earlier this month.

“He cared about people deeply and he was very upset with what was happening in Minneapolis and throughout the United States with ICE, as millions of other people are upset,” said Michael Pretti, Alex’s father. “He felt that doing the protesting was a way to express that, you know, his care for others.”

In a recent conversation with their son, his parents, who live in Wisconsin, told him to be careful when protesting.

“We had this discussion with him two weeks ago or so, you know, that go ahead and protest, but do not engage, do not do anything stupid, basically,” Michael Pretti said. “And he said he knows that. He knew that.”

The Department of Homeland Security said that the man was shot after he “approached” U.S. Border Patrol officers with a 9 mm semiautomatic handgun. Officials did not specify if Pretti brandished the gun, and it is not visible in bystander videos of the shooting.

ICE kills another INNOCENT citizen for exercising their 1st and 2nd amendment rights. Here comes the muttonheaded right to defend it… straight trash. We told you MAGA, Trump is an idiot and a fascist; do you hear us now? Smfh, you can’t undo this damage without heads rolling, imho. Noem< Trump and the whole damn barrel of NAZIS should be immediately removed from office, sent to a jail for crimes against humanity, and executed very damn publicly asap.

And for the DTers still support agent orange and his gravy gestapo made up of white supremacist, militia dolts, and NAZIS; I find you revolting and want zero interaction with you. You disgust me and I wish YOU were the ones getting deprted.
