The man who had a gun with multiple clips full of rounds of ammunition, disobeyed orders and drew his weapon on FEDERAL officers.

He got what he asked for.

The lady who used her vehicle as a weapon, and struck and injured a FEDERAL officer with that weapon, got what she asked for.

Every evil antagonistic action has a reaction, both of these people got what they asked for.

This newspaper must stop the censorship of these responses.

The democrats/antagonists have to stop twisting the truth. Especially mike the leader of the local clown circus.

Instead of creating peace the democrats in charge chose to insight insurection with their clown rehtoric.

How bout we all cooperate with the feds, let them do their job quickly and efficiently and move on.

peace to all.... TY

JW, you are sick to the core. The videos are clear, Alex Pretti was exercising his First Amendment right to free speech while carrying a legal weapon he never took out (his Second Amendment right you MAGA clowns love to scream nothing can diminish), much less brandished like the liars from the Trump Administration claimed. He tried to help another American citizen who had been assaulted get up, the ICE stormtroopers then pepper sprayed him, tackled him, beat him, took the gun he never took out, and then murdered him in cold blood, firing 10 times into his back while he was pinned to the ground by several of them.

You're the guy who keeps saying he believes in the Constitution, live free or die, blah, blah, blah. Here's two examples of American citizens murdered while completely within their rights. When Trump pulls back from something, you know it went bad. How can you be stupid enough to believe the BS they're putting out? Watch the videos, open your eyes, the evidence is crystal clear. You were okay with Kyle Rittenhouse going out looking to shoot peaceful protestors with an AR-15, but somebody using a cell phone to video civil rights abuses is somehow unsupportable?

Next time they might do it to you. If they can do it to one (or two) of us, they can do it to any of us. Stop drinking that Kool-Aid, get your head out of your you-know-what, start seeing the facts. They're staring you in the face, the videos are explicit, and show what really happened, not what Kristi Noem and her stormtroopers want to gaslight you into believing. The same situation with the first murder, you're just repeating lies there too.

Stop trying to blame others for Trump's insane revenge attempts against anyone that doesn't vote for him or bow down to him.

Neither of these people was interfering with the ICE agents. I've accepted the fact that you're stupid at this point, but how can you so completely ignore such clear facts?

It truly demonstrates it's not just willful stupidity on your part, there's really something wrong in your head.
