We can believe what both video evidence and ICE’s own past behavior suggest: that Pretti was observing the actions of federal agents who are engaged in a military occupation of his home city; that he was looking to make the agents’ work of ethnically cleansing his neighbors more onerous, but that he was not looking to engage in violence; that he was peacefully exercising his right to observe Trump’s agents and to voice his disagreement with what they were doing. And that he was killed for it. The videos of Pretti’s shooting are disturbing. When dissidents face summary executions by armed, masked thugs in a totalitarian regime, they are usually read accusations in a mock trial before they face the firing squad. Pretti didn’t even get that.
