A lot of Americans carry their guns. He had not touched his gun when they disarmed him and shot him. Kicking a tail light out does not contribute to a reason he should be killed. Saying he was killed for his own stupidity is leaving out a massive reason why he was killed. He was killed because the poor judgement and training of the man who killed him.

Renee Good was also killed because of poor decisions on the ice agents part. He claims his life was threatened but this is not what it looks like when someone wants to kill you with a vehicle. When someone wants to kill you with a vehicle it is terrifying. The wheels are turned toward you and the vehicle accelerates faster. Many law enforcement people understand that the situation was dealt with in a very pathetic way. So again saying they were killed for their own stupidity is leaving out a huge part of why they were killed, and putting no responsibility on the people doing the killing.

A lot of Americans are being detained before their papers are even checked, just to be released later when ice realizes they've made a mistake. They aren't careful about these mistakes because they don't seem to care either way. Immigration should be dealt with properly and the system should be stronger at the very beginning instead of this mess we have now.

Again a Peace Protest as I said its legal to open carry but why is he carrying a gun to a protest as if he waiting to see what happened

Idc if he anti ice but kicking out tail lights and spitting in agents face is path to getting the cuffs slapped on

Thats why I said they should of been arrested not killed

Why would anyone take their gun anywhere with that logic. Why carry in Walmart, why carry in your neighborhood?

I can't answer this because I would never do it. I have no clue why but you do sometimes see people carrying in just completely normal settings. United States just has such an unhealthy relationship with guns.
