Trump is a pos.

MINNEAPOLIS, Jan 28 (Reuters) - Police arrested a man who sprayed Democratic U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar with a foul-smelling liquid in Minneapolis on Tuesday as she condemned the actions of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials in Minnesota.
Omar, the frequent target of political insults from President Donald Trump, was uninjured. A security guard immediately grabbed the man and took him to the ground, according to a Reuters witness and video of the town hall event.

Police said they arrested the man for third-degree assault.

Trump said on Tuesday night that he had not seen the video and hoped he did not "have to bother."
"No. I don't think about her. I think she's a fraud. I really don't think about that. She probably had herself sprayed, knowing her," Trump told ABC News.

Ok I was wrong.

The agent that shot him saw the weapon being taken away.

The Department of Homeland Security is investigating whether U.S. Border Patrol agents thought they were being fired upon when one fatally shot Alex Pretti on a Minneapolis street over the weekend.

The New York Post reported that an accidental discharge of Pretti's Sig Sauer P320 pistol, which was being held by an agent after it was taken away from him, may have made authorities believe their lives were in danger.

Pretti, a U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs ICU nurse, who was legally permitted to carry the weapon, was fired upon around 10 times and died at the scene.

I am so tired of this idiocracy and the mental illness being inflicted on "conservatives". Easily discredited doesn't mean anything when the followers have already drank the Kool-aid. They just keep saying "Give me some more!"

A couple of my truly good life long friends use right wing media and they have a lot of right wing friends and are in the social media echo chamber. They spout lies and they don't want to listen until you hit them with a hard fact and that only temporarily puts them off keel. It's brainwashing.

Prime example and frustrating conversation from prior to Pretti's execution: I was talking about Minnesota with one of them. And he was spouting all the right wing nonsense about Good. "She was a paid protestor from Colorado, what was she doing there? How can she afford to be there is she isn't being paid?" I then just went and got into that with him. I hit him with his information was all lies. First She was originally from Colorado but lived in that neighborhood. I then said she just dropped her kids off at school, it was basically outside her house and so on. "I didn't know all that." Well no ---- you didn't because you are in the information cesspool. Then as soon as he digests that "She still drove at him. I know what it's like to have to make split second decisions." And I said a "normal person" in a volatile situation and not a mouth breathing cromagnon would have got out of the way. He could see her moving, he could see her turning the wheel and he could see her shifting while looking at the moron she was talking to. And to top it all of a Trained Law Enforcement Officer wouldn't have been there in the first place - not even a well trained one, just a trained one. He didn't like that for some reason.

Then yesterday I am talking on the phone with someone else I knew was brainwashed but I hear his radio in the background talking about how 80% of Somalis are autistic. I mean where do they get this stuff? Why would anyone even listen to such obvious BS?

#234 100% Alex:

The Donnerboy Rule:

I need two (2) independent sources** from any Trump sycophant for any 'proof' they offer before it is even considered, much less replied to.
**Any source that contains "Trump's FBI said...", or "The DOJ announced..." or "The White House proclaimed..." - or any iteration thereof - will immediately be considered not an independent source. - Try again.

Ah, finally figured out the story on this liar

Yes, he was LEO, but not for 37 years. Nope.

He became an LEO, but it was more than 37 years ago.

But that lasted only a few years.

Explains much about Imshakinitboss.

#194 Flag: Continues to lie even when there's proof of his lies for all thinking people to see - and judge - for themselves

Actually it shows exactly the disposition of the gun, when it was pulled from Pretti's back waistband, and when the first shot is heard. So it totally disproves your version.

Thinking people can see the truth.

Liars never will.
