BREAKING: The family of Alex Pretti releases a powerful statement about his senseless murder at the hands of Trump's masked fascist goons.
Please share this far and wide...
"We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital," the family said in a statement provided to CNN.
"Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the hero term lightly. However his last thought and act was to protect a woman."
"The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trumpโs murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He has his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down all while being pepper sprayed."
"Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you."
It is our responsibility as Americans to get the truth out there. Petti was not attempting to harm anyone. He was swarmed, beaten, and disarmed by vicious federal agents who were looking for someone to hurt. Once they had removed his gun โ which he had a legal permit to carry โ they executed him in cold blood by firing numerous bullets into him. Then, the Trump administration proceeded to immediately falsely smear him as a "terrorist" who wanted to carry out a mass shooting against law enforcement. They're utterly shameless.
โHe cared about people deeply and he was very upset with what was happening in Minneapolis and throughout the United States with ICE, as millions of other people are upset,โ said Pretti's father Alex. โHe thought it was terrible, you know, kidnapping children, just grabbing people off the street. He cared about those people, and he knew it was wrong, so he did participate in protests.โ
Rest in power Alex. The rest of us will carry on the fight.

Stop what youโre doing, @bryanandrews_ has something to say! ๐
I co-sign every single word Bryan Andrews said in this video.
Iโm admittedly not the biggest country music fan. However, I have a small list of artists in my playlist. This is someone I can support and give money to.
It would be cool if we could all go support this artist. We need to get back to lifting up the right people. ๐บ๐ธ๐๐ผ

When I was growing up, I never realized that being an โadultโ just means doing life with a lot of other people who are also not really adults while you make mistakes and navigate being (sometimes) taller versions of kids that can drink alcohol and have mortgages. #adultingiswild
The amount of money Iโve spent on produce, specifically fruit, that had the ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ข to go bad before I got around to eating it, is disrespectful.
Thatโs all.
I was today years old when I realized persecution and prosecution were different words.
Itโs things like this that make me happy English wasnโt my seconds language.
