The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) stated that Pretti was armed with a 9-mm handgun during a crowd altercation with federal agents and was shot while "violently resisting" efforts to disarm him.
Now in the interests of full disclosure -- so that you can make up your own mind while being more or less informed: Video footage appears to show Pretti checking on a woman who had been pushed by agents. Local officials and residents noted that Pretti was a lawful gun owner with a valid permit and no criminal history.
Conclusion? When federal agents tell you to surrender during a crowd altercation you surrender . . . not resist. Just saying.
Anyway . . . you have NOW gotten 'the rest of the story'. Never read leftist political propaganda without doing some independent research.
