Turley on Pretti

“(Jonathan Turley) there remain legitimate questions about this shooting. the videotapes do not show, as suggested in early accounts from the federal government, that Pretti approached the officers brandishing a weapon.

“Pretti does not obey the commands of the officers in returning to the middle of the road during their operation. however, he did not appear threatening until after the officer pushed him to the side of the road. at one point, he appears to shove the officer as he tries to assist a woman who was pushed to the ground.

“what happens next is hard to determine. there is a video that suggests that an officer may have removed his weapon from its holster just before another officer yells “gun.” it is hard to see Pretti’s hands and we do not know what happened in that split second. we may get a better idea as new videotapes emerge.

“law enforcement officers do not expect blind deference on shootings. However, they have a right to expect a fair chance for an investigation to hear their side of a shooting — not a governor or a mayor rushing before cameras to effectively accuse them of murder.

“at this point, it may not matter. only the mob matters. minneapolis [chief of police] Brian O’Hara explained: 'even if there is an investigation that ultimately proves that at the time of the shooting it was legally justified, I don’t think that even matters at this point, because there just- there is so much outrage and concern around what is happening in the city.'”

GRA: Sounds like a fair analysis.

Pretti's gun identified; his ex-wife says, “he liked to be at protests--and had at least one gun”

Pretti's gun identified; his ex-wife says, “he liked to be at protests--and had at least one gun”

The gun appears to be a Sig Sauer axg combat 9mm, which runs about $1,200-$1,400.

Pretti’s ex-wife told the ap he got a concealed carry permit approximately three years ago and owned “at least one” pistol at the time of their separation.

She also said, they've been divorced for two years and his being at the demonstrations, is exactly who he is. he liked attending protests and raising his voice--especially at authority--when he felt they were being unfair.

GRA: I wonder if he protested mandatory covid vaxxes.

He had an “ex-wife”? Glad you found that- I google-searched “Is Pretti gay?” (he was a “male nurse,” after all) and the silence was suspiciously deafening. There was a reference to him being a vocal LGBT “supporter,” which figures.

The gargle results were uniformly far-far-left and supportive of the protesters and against ice; why are there complaints about wikipedia all the time but not this “resource”? El Presidente should have shut them down ages ago.

N.S.: Since they are joined at the hip, complaining about one is the same as complaining about the other. Any time you search for anything on gargle that has a pretend encyclopedia page, g automatically posts a teaser and link on the top right of the page.

I haven't watched the videos but someone said the gun he had was a cheap chinese import that could have discharged accidentally.

Once upon a time the police were allowed to shoot anyone who made a threatening motion toward them, just as they could shoot a fleeing suspect. No one cared or complained about a criminal being killed (except the radical element, which back then was a small percentage of the population). I've said that one reason old movies and TV shows are suppressed is because the Powers That Be don't WANT people to see how life used to be, especially how law enforcement USED to work when it was allowed to function properly.

Married (to a woman) does not exclude him being a queer. Maybe that's why they got divorced. Rachel Canoun is her name.

"Martial law?" Today's news is that President Casper-the-Friendly-Ghost had "a nice phone call" with Walz (like the nice talk he had with Communist Man-damn-me?), and is sending the moronic-looking Homan into minneapolis to handle the situation. That'll show them!

Priorities: the "President" had more to say about the upcoming super bowl than about the situation in minneapolis.

Here's a post from James O'Keefe, if anyone cares:

For some reason, his reporting isn't being given play anywhere that I can find.

Here's the full post from President Muffley.... er, Trump:

If T. were President in 1941:

"I just had a very good talk on the phone with Prime Minister Tojo, very productive... We discussed the regrettable incident at Pearl Harbor, and he promised it wouldn't happen again... He's going to make every effort to identify those responsible... We all want a peaceful solution... Also, I asked him to speak to that Hitler fellow and see if he could tone it down a bit... Having lunch with Neville Chamberlain later to discuss the matter. Sent my regards to the Emperor.

Only 4 more months till Spring Training- can't wait to see how the Yankees are going to be doing next season!"

Joliet police, overseeing a 52% White, 18% bLACK, 13% mEX demographic, have to investigate a double murder of one woman and one four-year-old boy; cops say no further threat as poi [sic] is in custody

"(nbc5) Joliet police are investigating a double-homicide that left an adult and a child dead over the weekend.

"according to Joliet police, officers are still on scene sunday in the 700 block of Garsney avenue as they investigate that homicide.

"police say an adult and a young child were discovered dead at the scene, but did not provide further details on the incident.

"a person-of-interest in the case is in custody, and police say there is no ongoing threat to the public at this time."

GRA: Not ANYWHERE? [Chuckle.]

--GRA


N.S. To belabor the obvious, GRA's point is that in such areas, there is an ongoing threat to the public at all times.
