    Yup. They attacked him for interfering with their assault of another woman, disarmed him (of a weapon he was legally carrying, never presented, and never reached for), then murdered him while he was being held down/restrained.

    Now they’re trying to claim, without evidence, that he brandished and/or intended to use that weapon on agents, justifying his murder.

      What’s super gross is how so many MAGAts on Facebook are jumping immediately to defend the shooting. All of a sudden “don’t tread on me” became “he should have just listened to authority.”
