Donald Trump—a born and bred New Yorker—mentioned Pretti’s gun permit status at least three times on Tuesday, apparently in disbelief that someone in the American Midwest could legally walk around with guns.
Later, at a restaurant in Iowa, the topic came up again.
“I don’t like that he had a gun. I don’t like that he had two fully loaded magazines. That a lot of bad stuff,” Trump said.
Pretti intervened when an agent shoved a woman, trying to help her back on her feet before he was slammed to the ground by seven ICE agents — one of which shot Pretti 10 times in a span of five seconds, ending Pretti’s life.
Almost immediately after Pretti—a highly respected ICU nurse that worked in Veterans’ Affairs—was killed, DHS officials quickly branded him as a “domestic terrorist,” insisting that his death was justified on the basis that he had supposedly “approached officers with a 9mm semi-automatic handgun.”
“I don’t like the fact that he was carrying a gun that was fully loaded, and he had two magazines with him, it’s pretty unusual,” Trump told Fox News Tuesday. “But nobody knows when they saw the gun or how they saw the gun.”
Responding to a post after Pretti’s death by U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli, in which the Trump official claimed law enforcement are “legally justified” in shooting Americans in possession of firearms, the NRA posted: “This sentiment … is dangerous and wrong. Responsible public voices should be awaiting a full investigation, not making generalizations and demonizing law-abiding citizens.”
Gun Owners of America took on a more forceful tone, writing online that “the Second Amendment protects Americans’ right to bear arms while protesting—a right the federal government must not infringe upon.”
