       Not giving them credit. They set the situation up & now protest? Hell no.Prominent #Republicans & #GunRights advocates helped elicit a White House turnabout this week after bristling over the #Trump admin’s characterization of #AlexPretti, the 2nd person murdered this month by a #federal “officer” in #Minneapolis, as responsible for his own death because he lawfully possessed a weapon.#enablers #complicit #law #murder #Minnesota #CivilRights #UseOfForce #ICE #CBP https://apnews.com/article/trump-pretti-minnesota-second-amendment-ice-ffef56cab9930e52273f8227251452f4?utm_source=onesignal&utm_medium=push&utm_campaign=2026-01-27-Immigration

       The death produced no clear shifts in #US #gun #politics or #policies, even as #Trump shuffles the lieutenants in charge of his militarized #immigration crackdown. But important voices in Trump’s coalition have called for a thorough investigation of #AlexPretti’s death while also criticizing inconsistencies in many #Republicans’ #SecondAmendment stances.#enablers #complicit #ReneeGood #law #murder #Minnesota #Constitution #CivilRights #UseOfForce #PoliceBrutality #ICE #CBP #Sturmabteilung

       …#FBI Director #KashPatel magnified the blowback Sunday on FauxNews….No one, he said, can “bring a firearm, loaded, with multiple magazines to any sort of protest that you want. It’s that simple.” Erich Pratt, VP of Gun Owners of America, was incredulous.“I have attended protest rallies while armed, & no one got injured,” he said on CNN.#enablers #complicit #ReneeGood #AlexPretti #law #murder #Minnesota #Constitution #CivilRights #UseOfForce #PoliceBrutality #ICE #CBP #Trump #Sturmabteilung

       Conservative officials around the country made the same connection between the First & Second amendments.“Showing up at a protest is very American. Showing up with a weapon is very American,” state Rep. Jeremy Faison, who leads the GOP caucus in Tennessee, said on X.#Trump’s first-term VP, #MikePence, called for “full and transparent investigation of this officer involved shooting.”#enablers #complicit #ReneeGood #AlexPretti #Trump #law #murder #CivilRights #UseOfForce #ICE #CBP #Gestapo

       Liberals, conservatives & nonpartisan experts noted how the admin’s response differed from past conservative positions involving #protests & #weapons.Multiple #Trump supporters were found to have weapons during the #Jan6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol. Trump issued blanket #pardons to all of them.#2A #hypocrisy #enablers #complicit #ReneeGood #AlexPretti #Trump #law #murder #CivilRights #UseOfForce #ICE #CBP #Gestapo

       #Republicans were critical in 2020 when Mark & Patricia #McCloskey had to pay fines after pointing guns at protesters who marched through their St. Louis neighborhood after the police killing of #GeorgeFloyd in Minneapolis. And then there’s #KyleRittenhouse, a “counter-protester” acquitted after fatally #shooting 2 men & injuring another in Kenosha, Wisconsin, during the post-Floyd protests.#2A #hypocrisy #enablers #complicit #ReneeGood #AlexPretti #Trump #law #murder #UseOfForce #ICE #CBP

       “You remember #KyleRittenhouse & how he was made a hero on the right,” Trey Gowdy, a Republican fmr congressman & attorney for #Trump during one of his first-term #impeachments. “#AlexPretti’s #firearm was being lawfully carried.…He never brandished it.”#2A #hypocrisy #enablers #complicit #ReneeGood #AlexPretti #law #murder #CivilRights #UseOfForce #ICE #CBP #Sturmabteilung

       Adam Winkler, a UCLA #law prof who has studied the history of the #gun debate, said the fallout “shows how tribal we’ve become.” #Republicans spent years talking about the #SecondAmendment as a purported means to fight government tyranny, he said.“The moment someone who’s thought to be from the left, they abandon that principled stance,” Winkler said.#2A #hypocrisy #enablers #complicit #ReneeGood #AlexPretti #Trump #law #murder #CivilRights #UseOfForce #ICE #CBP #Sturmabteilung

       @Nonilex This has been the case for a long time. California’s 1967 Mulford Act, some of the most restrictive gun laws in the nation, were signed into law by the right wing’s own deity, Ronald Reagan. Why? Because the Black Panthers were carrying. There is no principled philosophy here. Gun rights are for those on the political right, particularly if they’re white.
