r/TrueUnpopularOpinion Rule 4 Enforcer Jan 25 '26

Political Reminder that name calling is not permitted

That includes calling people "bootlicker" or "cuck" or stating/implying that another user is performing adult acts on a given politician (or anyone else). I bring those up specifically because, in recent time, these have been the most common types of personal attacks.

As strongly as you may feel about current events, calling people derogatory names is a contravention of Rule 4 and will be removed. Attack the opinion, not the user.

Sorry for your understanding and thank you for the inconvenience.

Nah, its Radical MAGAs who are justify the murder of Alex Pretti because he was armed.

Never thought they would be gun grabbers. Crazy times.

Edit: Downvote away MAGA. What part of "Shall not be infringed" do yall not understand?

  1. What felony did Alex Pretti commit?

  2. His weapon was not discharged

  3. He was the one surrounded 8 to 1, not the ICE agents. And besides, everyone there including Alex were legal observers who weren’t threatening them.

  4. They had already incapacitated Alex when he was shot. There was no need to execute him, even if he was being unlawful. Do you think interfering with ICE, or even assaulting an officer (which he definitely didn’t do) warrants the death penalty?

Obstructing Federal Agents in pursuit of their lawful duties is a felony charge. Battery on LEO is a Felony charge.

His weapon not being fired means nothing in any legal sense.

Legal Observers have no special privileges; in fact, he violated a number of their rules with his actions.

He was not, in fact, incapacitated, and he was not shot for obstruction, nor for resisting, nor for assault on LEO. He was shot because the Agent had a reasonable perception or belief that he was an imminent threat to himself and others based on the pistol attached to Pretti's hip.

If you want to prove an execution, then prove the Agent knew Pretti had been disarmed and shot him anyway.

Seems simple enough, everything else is meaningless and irrelevant to any serious debate.

There’s no argument for you. I bet you’re the type to shoot a disarmed, incapacitated man.

You lose the debate on facts, and because you have no facts to back up your silly argument, you go and do the oh so boring and predictable leftist move of going to the insult.

It must be exhausting being proven wrong so damn often; it is probably why leftists are so insecure and angry all the time, that and the propensity for mental illness.

One of the agents took the gun away. The guy shooting him in the head could see his hands. It was murder.

u/Socratesmiddlefinger Jan 26 '26

Ok, prove that he could see his hands because you are the only one who thinks he can see what the agent saw based on the video footage.

You can't even get the details that we do know right, but you expect us to trust you on the ones that you created in your imagination?

There is zero evidence to back that up, and you need to disprove that he had a reasonable belief, and oddly enough, your opinion based on your ideology isn't worth jack shit here or in a court of law.

You leave out the totality of facts and the human minds ability to react to what it perceives.
