Attorney and Expert in Self-Defense Offers OUTSTANDING Analysis Showing Why ICE Shooting of Alex Pretti Was Justified (VIDEO)
If you really want to understand the ICE shooting of Alex Pretti and understand why it was justified, you really don’t need to do anything but watch the video below.
Andrew Branca is an attorney who is an expert in self-defense. You may have seen clips of him in the past as he has his own talk show and is often brought on to other shows to provide legal analysis.
In this video, he carefully breaks down the Pretti shooting and puts it into language and perspective that anyone can uderstand.
Partial transcript by Collin Rugg on Twitter/X:
– “The moment he makes contact with that officer, he’s just committed a federal felony good for eight years in a federal penitentiary.”
– “That’s why they were seeking to make his arrest because they saw him commit a forcible felony against a fellow officer.”
– “Then he’s noncompliant with arrest. He’s fighting them. Then they discover he has a gun…”
– “They take that gun. There are cries of ‘gun, gun, gun.’ The officers called to each other. He’s still noncompliant. They hear a gunshot go off. And Alex Pretty’s right hand comes from his waistline with a black object in his hand.”
– “That combination of facts is going to get you shot 999 times out of a thousand by law enforcement, and justifiably so.”
“They’re making all these perceptions, all these decisions in a violent, chaotic melee caused by Alex Pretti.”
“They have to make all these decisions in a split second because that’s how quickly someone can use a weapon against you, and those decisions.”
“They don’t have to be correct. The law of self-defense does not require us to make perfect decisions…”
Watch the whole thing below, this is really outstanding:

People on the left will deny all of this because they need Alex Pretti to be a martyr, but as Andrew Branca clearly lays out in that video, the shooting was justified. The whole situation was caused by Pretti himself.
Pretti started it and then immediately made things worse for himself by resisting. The agents who were involved made split second decisions and were justified in doing so.
