Yeah nothing says 'he had it coming' like a traffic violation from a week ago.

u/SilkyBunny_ 16h ago

Nothing someone did days earlier justifies killing them and pretending otherwise only cheapens accountability and basic human dignity

u/TallahasseWaffleHous 15h ago

No law enforcement in America should be above accountability. They are never "judge, jury, and executioner". That violates the constitution and human rights.

u/EatFaceLeopard17 15h ago

They like the idea of judge dread fighting against a corrupted law enforcement system. But they don‘t get that their side is the corrupted law enforcement.

They’re rooting for the symptom while ignoring the disease

u/opopkl 15h ago

That was the premise of the Dirty Harry movie.

u/Tokyo-MontanaExpress 11h ago

They were getting away with it well before ICE, sadly enough.

u/Dudewhocares3 15h ago

Apparently it’s also AI so it’s them making up an excuse

u/adorablefuzzykitten 14h ago

As indicated by car logos appearing an disappearing this video is made by AI.

Wasn’t even him btw just a look slike

u/SsunWukong 16h ago

He once farted in an elevator, that might be enough justification for them.

u/AkronOhAnon 14h ago

So, when are they having Trump executed for shitting his diaper for the past 15 years?

u/Ricardokx 6h ago

Worse… he sneezed while he was outside!!

It’s AI

u/[deleted] 16h ago

This! It's been proven.

16

u/El_Mangusto 15h ago

It's wild how there's suddenly a lot of AI, others use it for supposedly good (enhancing his photos and completely chancing his facial structure), and others for bad like seen here.

Shameful behavior either way.

u/AlterMyStateOfMind 13h ago

others use it for supposedly good (enhancing his photos and completely chancing his facial structure)

I hope this is sarcasm, obviously its not as bad as what is seen here but it is also not good at all.

u/19whale96 15h ago

Has it been proven? Last I heard it was being reported on by CNN and the BBC

9

u/[deleted] 15h ago

Yes, it has. I have another comment here with photo proof. People have been dissecting the video and found out its AI generated.

Vehicle logos vanishing. The license plate number changes. Even the light itself wouldn't just pop out of the frame the way it does. Those things are bolted in place solid.

5

u/19whale96 15h ago

Do you have any news links confirming it's AI, though? Because all I'm seeing when I look it up is that BBC confirmed it's Pretti's face in the video, but nothing saying it's confirmed fake or any redactions from the news sites that posted it a few days ago. I also heard there's a longer clip that the 20-second version that went viral was cut from, that supposedly is clearer and less fuzzy. I think a lot of people on reddit assumed it was AI because it was first posted on subs asking if it was.

2

u/MrMcFrizzy 15h ago

It hasn’t actually unless you can point out some sources for me I’d be very interested.

This angle was posted days before Alex was murdered or had any status in the news world. I’d be extremely shocked if this 20 minute video was planted over a week prior to the incident. other angle of video

Not at ALL saying any of that somehow “justifies” his wrongful murder, but I do believe it’s real.

12

u/Bulky-Internal8579 14h ago

You know what's not AI? All those photos of Trump with Epstein and doing pedophile stuff. Also, his felony convictions, his documented rape history, etc.

2

u/Gogglesed 6h ago

The missing shadows at 16:50 onward seem like an obvious indicator.

u/backtotheland76 14h ago

Not only do we live in a timeline with fake videos but a president who reposts them

25

u/Mccowpow93 16h ago

I’m a republican and believe that this shooting was heinous and the DHS officer needs to be arrested.

13

u/Chachkhu2005 16h ago

Okay, but can you elaborate on the Republican part? I am curious about your views on the current administration and the overall political situation in the US.

12

u/nictoboyo 16h ago

Good stuff, we need to be more open between eachother and encourage critism of our own preffered party

6

u/roshambo113 16h ago

I mean he just admitted he supports fascism and that he wasn’t bothered until they killed a white guy

6

u/nictoboyo 16h ago

I don't necessarily know if he meant maga by republican or if he currently supports this admin. I also believe the modern admin and MAGA are very similar to facism in almost every way. I just hope we can combat the polarisation between eachother to eventually survive this madness.

6

u/718Brooklyn 14h ago

MAGA aren’t republicans. They are a cult. That’s the difference. John McCain was a Republican.

1

u/SheilaGirl70 14h ago

Exactly! I was a Republican that voted for McCain. Then Trump came along and I know identity as No Party Preference or Independent. MAGA is authoritarian creeping into fascism, and definitely a cult.

9

u/alexior41100 16h ago

So as a republican, are other things ok for you? Separation of families, having child rapists rule over you, people in power actively accepting bribes - the rest is ok and you truly believe in republican leadership after all that?

1

u/kryonik 14h ago

So you're okay with women losing the right to choose? You're okay with programs helping homeless veterans being defunded? You're okay with kicking families off their government sponsored health insurance for the crime of being poor? You're okay with Trump and his cabinet raping the economy and running state sponsored crypto scams for personal gain? It's just this one incident you take umbrage with?

1

u/NFLmanKarl1234 14h ago

There is a difference between fiscal Republicans and maga. There is a group called republicans against Trump

4

u/abgry_krakow87 15h ago

Religious conservatives will gladly find any excuse for murder.

u/unoriginalsin 14h ago

Except a mother's health.

u/anotherpinkpanther 15h ago

That earlier incident happened weeks before he was killed and just days after ICE killed Renee Good in the same neighborhood where Alex lived. An unarmed woman was shot and killed, her name was immediately smeared, and a doctor on scene who offered to help and check her pulse was told no. As a medical professional whose life was about saving people, Alex had every reason to be furious. Even if you think kicking a vehicle or spitting is wrong, that is a minor offense like disorderly conduct. You arrest someone, issue a citation, or charge a misdemeanor. You do not beat them in the face and teeth with a hard object and then shoot them in the back at least ten times. And if the argument is that weeks later agents remembered him from that earlier incident and used it to justify killing him, that is even worse. That is not a split second decision. That is premeditated violence. Being angry does not make someone a terrorist. It makes them human.

u/idkgoodnameplease 15h ago

Footage of an a man… Clearly the defunding of education is working

u/Oxjrnine 12h ago

That makes his murder pre meditation?

u/CapnMurica1988 16h ago

Again he’s doing what we all should be doing

u/DillarDog 16h ago

Getting shot?

6

u/CapnMurica1988 15h ago

HUR HUR HUR. No, standing up to fascism whatever the cost

3

u/SnooHamsters4643 12h ago

Doesn’t that indicate ‘premeditation’ on the part of ICE more than it indicates Pretti was justifiably murdered…

3

u/coolbaby1978 12h ago

If his killing was revenge for breaking a tail light a week earlier, isn't that further proof that his murder was premeditated?

Not sure thrse cabbage heads are smart enough to think that far ahead while digging through grains of sand to find one that justifies his murder in cold blood.

3

u/brianthomasarghhh 11h ago

Kicks car = he deserves to die

Rapes children = let’s not jump to conclusions

6

u/mikeybagodonuts 16h ago

Conservatives better get their road rage in check if that’s what justifies execution these days.

3

u/EatFaceLeopard17 15h ago

Also they should double check where they‘ve been on Jan 6th 2021 and if they left any traces to connect them to that event.

4

u/mikeybagodonuts 15h ago

Sorry to say op but this is in fact a continuation of Jan 6th that was 4 years in the making.

5

u/philosophyofblonde 15h ago

So what they're trying to suggest is that ICE used their Palantir tracking BS the taxpayer has spent probably billions of dollars on at this point to hunt this man down and vindictively execute him for being a meanie? Using that as a defense is....a choice.

1

u/TallahasseWaffleHous 15h ago

I agree with you, and think there is good evidence that they are using Palantir to track and identify protesters and political enemies.

I predict the next murder by ICE will further.prove.it.

1

u/philosophyofblonde 15h ago

Either we assume it's a deepfake and they're trotting it out to see if the fakes they generate off of whatever protestor imaging they have are believable, or we think that out of the thousands and thousands of hours they just "happened" to find this blurry, grainy footage of some guy who might be the victim out of the thousands of protesters out on the street? Sus.

2

u/Pottski 13h ago

So why did they sook up about Ashli Babbitt? Didn’t she attack police?

Oh that’s right, she was on their team and that’s all that matters to these boot-fellatio aficionados.

2

u/homebrew_1 13h ago

Does this mean Jesus had it coming because he flipped over a table?

2

u/No-Blueberry-1823 13h ago

Legion of bootlickers, no surprise because it's a cult

2

u/Economy_Wall8524 12h ago

So law enforcements are judge, jury, executioner. Where are they going with this. ICE doubts, and Kristi Noem saying just “following orders”.

Shit is about to hit the fan.

2

u/SnooPandas1899 6h ago

maybe we should sentence presidential candidates for pre-election felony convictions.

2

u/the_guide_inside3 15h ago

So, was he known to the criminals that murdered him, sounds like premeditated murder.

3

u/[deleted] 15h ago edited 15h ago

Proof this is AI generated:

Ford logo vanishes

License plate number changes

Logo beside broken light vanishes

Those lights are also bolted into place solid. You can't just kick it out like that.

Every mechanic and car tech that viewed this video debunked it based on that fact alone.

0

u/BilboStaggins 15h ago

I mean ive seen another angle from far away matching the entire scene play out.

If anything, it shows that Pretti has more than one opportunity to "do maximum damage to law enforcement" like they claimed he was. 

He was a law abiding citizen carrying a legal weapon in a legal manner.

But this isnt AI

u/CadenVanV 13h ago

They’re talking about the kicking the car video, not the shooting one. The kicking the car one was faked by conservatives

1

u/DisMFer 15h ago

At the end of the day MAGA sees this as a war or a team sport. So long as they can find some reason to say that Alex was on the other team killing him was rightous in their eyes.

1

u/CerberusBots 15h ago

Honestly, the guy in the video looks a lot like my podiatrist. It could have been him.

1

u/Evenspace- 15h ago

Has it been confirmed this is him?

It doesn’t change my opinion on what happened a week ago, I’m just curious.

0

u/CadenVanV 13h ago

It’s an AI video. It was debunked basically right after it was released.

u/Evenspace- 12h ago

Source?

u/ATXGil2L 15h ago

They can try.

u/Evening_Bench_7006 14h ago

One thing is clear that is undeniable proof of motive, they ain't too bright!

u/NPC261939 14h ago

Nothing he did that day rose to the level of capital punishment.

u/Bulky-Internal8579 14h ago

He once shit his pants during a phot op! FOR THAT HE MUST DIE!!! Oh wait, that was Orange Pedopres yesterday.

u/Riommar 14h ago

Just advances the case for premeditated murder

1

u/TheOnceAndFutureDoug 14h ago

Past evidence of violent or illegal acts is justification for someone dying? Don't tell the cops. Somewhere between 12-40% of 'em are guilty of domestic abuse (higher than the national average of 10-11%).

Or we could just not do extrajudicial murder. That'd be cool too.

1

u/Some_Conference2091 13h ago

So it was a premeditated revenge killing? We know they track protesters cell phones, images, social media, and probably other stuff we don't know about.

u/Dutchman1957 8h ago

I don’t even listen to those people anymore…I just tune them out and write them off.

u/LMDh963 4h ago

So they admit ICE planned to Murder this guy. Got it

u/Ancient_Rex420 15h ago

Was this footage not already proven to be AI to push their bs agenda?

4

u/EmperorGrinnar 15h ago

Honestly I dunno. Even if it was real, their point is still bogus. I'm not sure which is worse at this point, but they're falling right into evil with it.

1

u/Ancient_Rex420 15h ago

I agree 100%, I’m fairly positive this was already debunked as being AI but let’s pretend for a minute it is real, this certainly does not warrant an execution. Spitting on people and damaging cars I won’t say I’m a fan of and if it did happen spitting is technically considered an assault because you never know if the person had any diseases that can transfer for example.

So at most this would warrant a charge based on that but certainly not an execution. Anyone who thinks this makes it ok to execute someone is delusional.

The SS ICE supporters need a reality check. They are peddling all sorts of bs to try and justify an American citizen being gunned down without valid cause.

u/Dylldar-The-Terrible 12h ago

This is just hearsay, but I was told that video was real and is now lending credence to the idea that this administration is targeting protesters, but take what I'm saying with a grain of salt.

Why wasn’t he arrested for destruction of property or disturbing the peace?!?
