Executions of Pretti, Good, anti-ICE riots

“ICE Out”: Tens of thousands march in Minnesota in general strike against immigration raids

We will not stand for Trump's America on ICE
Peaceful and legal protests and demonstrations have intensified in Minnesota after federal immigration agents killed Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old ICU nurse [like they executed Nicole Good, a 37-year-old mother] who worked in the Minneapolis Veterans Health Care System, on Saturday.

John Hamilton reports from the scene where innocent Pretti was shot to death, where protesters are clashing with federal agents.

“We’ve seen everything from [teargassed] people that are unconscious, that have fainted, tear-gassed, bruised, bloody noses, can’t breathe,” said Melissa, a local resident.

State Senator Omar Fateh responded to the killing with outrage: “He had a camera on his hand. He was tackled, he was pummeled, and he was executed.” VIDEO:

Racist agents enforce racism with impunity.
Democracy Now! speaks with a former colleague of Alex Pretti, the 37-year-old ICU nurse ICE shot to death, acting as Trump's federal agents in Minneapolis on Saturday. Dr. Aasma Shaukat, who hired Pretti for a research job over a decade ago, says he lived with “kindness, compassion, and a strong sense of civic duty to help his fellow citizens.” VIDEO:
