Clearly, this has taken its toll. Look what’s happening in the streets of Minneapolis, Portland, and Los Angeles. These are the fruits of the incessant media push for rebel rights, i.e. abortion rights (murder rights), LGBTQ rights, and riot rights, which are Marxist rights. 

Deplorably, our socialist-controlled media has managed to give America a complex about defending our police and federal officers who are committed to halting domestic violence on our streets. Equally deplorable is the fact that civil unrest and violence against civil authority are now supported by many Americans including many of our leaders and lawmakers. 

The truth is that no one has the legal right to resist, threaten, or assault a federal law official. 18 U.S.C. § 111 makes it a federal offense to forcibly assault, impede, or interfere with an ICE agent especially when his agitator is carrying a loaded gun. Numerous videos taken by witnesses captured the minutes leading up to the shooting of Alex Pretti, including a struggle between Pretti and several federal officers. According to DHS, Pretti "approached" the agents and then "officers attempted to disarm the suspect but the armed suspect violently resisted." No one is trigger happy here but Pretti brought his own demise upon himself. No one in their right mind can deny that he was fighting against federal agents, which is criminal.

Yet, Pretti is now seen as a martyr rather than an offender, thanks to the media. Now it is perfectly alright to clash with police and tear our streets asunder because the media said it’s alright. People look to the media like it is the Almighty voice from above when in fact it is a sinister brood of vipers that is controlled by the Illuminati, an international coalition of satanists that works conjointly with the socialists........
