From Hennepin County, Minneapolis. Minnesota. Nonsense. All of Minnesota is a pigsty of corrupt, decrepit, fraud-ridden state that needs to be completely purged of any and all of DEMOCRATS stains.

He is throwing a spanner in the works to start another round of protests.
Democrats have double standards.
Letitia James and James Comey overwhelming evidence ,they won't get charged.
Don Lemon physically obstructs a church service ,no arrest for him.

ICE agent shoots someone driving towards him ,homicide.
ICE agents shoot an armed protester blocking their work and scuffling with them ,they call it an execution.
Democrat prosecutors and judges have jailed people who shot burglars in their own homes.

Nine counties account for 2/3 of the ICE violence. They are all sanctuary areas.

Now you know..

The whole world including a handful of republicans are against the stance of the DHS secretary.. Alex was obviously murdered by watching the video..

But our man here agreed he was a domestic terrorist..that he was getting in the way of law enforcement.. bla bla bla..

Now he wants to shift ground like he ever cared..

Meanwhile below is the outcome of Renne Goods assessment.

Our resident black nigerian brothers also called her a domestic terrorist.. PATHETIC!!

May those who have supported the death of these two lovely humans know no peace.

Medical examiner. I dey laugh at this one. Who doesn't know she was shot while driving towards an agent?
If he had a gun and someone drives towards him ,he would jump out of the way, right?
Then if that driver hit someone else ,he would live with the guilt of not shooting him. Correct me on that.
The shots were to protect any other victim,it would be homicide if she had told him she won't run over him or anyone else.

I had to catch up the last 20 pages and no man, no be how you start be dis.

This is usually the problem with all you MAGATs. Mostly, you don't have a mind of your own. You look to see the where the Red Hat King iis headed, and then you follow immediately without question, mostly.

How at anytime this event could be ruled as nothing but cold-blooded murdered beats my imagination. DHS even released a public statement claiming the victim was brandishing a weapon, and one of you on here immediately supported it.

I predicted America's imminent 3rd world status, the Empire's decline, the Dollar's decline and civil war........ if Trump gets relected. The 4th one is the one that breaks my heart the most..... Unfortunately, it is going to happen because of people like you with ever-shifting ideas of the truth.

After Trump leaves office ,if they don't compensate his stolen second term with a third one ,he should run for the Governor of California 😁😁

Don Lemon and his gang of thugs raided a church disrupting the service ,threatening kids. A judge refused to have him arrested.
A black Pastor has dared Don Lemon to try his church.

Rev Patrick L. Wooden, Sr has a message for Don Lemon and any protesters thinking to disrupt his church service.

"You all see when them people invaded that church the other day? Now, I just want to say to protesters and all of them, don’t do that here. Amen. Don Lemon, don’t come here. You roll up in this church doing stuff like that, and it’s going to be the Royal Rumble. And the funny thing is, I’m not joking.

We have worked hard. We built the church in the name of the Lord. We dedicated it to the Lord. It’s built for worship. Our blood, sweat, tears, and finances are in this place. And some people who have never darkened the door of a church and never contributed one dime to it gonna roll up in here and disturb our service and scare our children and shout obscenities in the church.

That will not stand in this church. That will not stand. That’s not going to stand. Amen. So I thought I’d bring that up, just in case there’s somebody out there who is thinking. Amen—that’s not going to stand."



This is how Christians should respond. The left will attack this pastor questioning his faith.
This is not a question of turning the left check after being slapped on the right.
Don Lemon and his bullies should get the memo.
They would never storm a mosque for starters,we all know what would happen.

IbeOkehie:
Most people don't take time to think through INDIVIDUAL and GROUP differences.

1) You Mr Basilico may outperform White people at your job, comparing individual to individual.

2) That doesn't take away from the FACT that White race as a GROUP outperforms Black race as a GROUP.

There's absolutely no contradiction between the two.

White Americans are taller than Chinese men.

Donald Trump is a White American and he is NOT taller than a Chinese man named Yao Ming.

Another White American named Danny Davito is likely shorter than 90% of Chinese men.

This is elementary statistical stuff. It's amazing to me that Nigerians as a group don't seem to understand this. Anytime they hear "US/UK is a better place to achieve economic success" their REFLEXIVE RESPONSE is always "but Dangote made his money in Nigeria" These are likely UNIVERSITY GRADS talking this mess.

There's no need for anyone to react irrationally or defensively to GROUP comparisons. The final arbiter of racial quality is PRODUCTIVITY that improves the quality of human life, as in HDI. Those who tell us that ALL RACES ARE EQUAL can't defend that statement. You can't have Nigeria as the Poverty Capital of the World and tell me it contains any tribe that's equal to or better than the Koreans. Yeah someone will soon say what about North Korea but at least they have nukes and not even USA can attack them....Nigeria INVITED the USA to come bomb Sokoto.

Black people achieve their highest HDI when they live in nations that are dominated by or strongly influenced by Whites, specifically Anglos. That's why I'm willing to bet over 90% on this Nairaland living in Europe & North America CHOOSE to live in majority White neighborhoods.

Anyway...

Good Luck to Nigerians.

Western societies have systems that work.Corruption money involved is bigger than African but it's highly criminal .The Chinese quickly executes the corrupt..
The West also has built safety nets.An individual can risk going it alone,with the assurance that if things don't work out ,he will still afford a roof and food. Unlike us in Africa. That in itself is a motivating factor to innovate.Add the western culture of the pride of being your own CEO or President .
Most Indians live communally ,large families and they don't squander their money like us. Most are frugal compared to their incomes and they build generational wealth.
So while our leaders are corrupt we are also largely to blame for our situation.Petty jealousies and crab mentality. You've seen it here how a user is derided for being poor

I have said time and time again ,white people see blacks as inferior. Never expect them to love you and treat you equally across the board.There are individual exceptions to this, when no black is within their earshot, they have choice words .

It appears South African Blacks had higher standards of living than Nigerians even in 1980. I've been told about an interview given by Yvonne Chaka Chaka when she visited Nigeria in the 1980s. In that interview she appeared surprised that Nigerians thought her people were suffering. She told the interviewer that Black South Africans had higher living standards than Nigeria at that time and that she felt bad about the abysmal conditions she had witnessed during her visit. I've looked for that interview best as I can....no success so far.

I never thought to consult Google till right this moment. Here's an AI overview that can guide further research -

Based on data regarding Human Development Index (HDI) trends in the 1980s, Black South Africans generally had a higher, or at least comparable, level of human development in key indicators such as life expectancy and education compared to the average Nigerian in 1980, despite the severe inequalities of the apartheid system.

While apartheid created extreme racial disparities in South Africa, the country's overall 1980 HDI was rated around 0.658. In contrast, Nigeria’s HDI in 1980 was significantly lower, with estimates placing it around 0.321 to 0.378 in that period.

Key Data Points for 1980

South Africa's Context: Even at the height of apartheid, the overall South African HDI was significantly bolstered by its developed infrastructure and the resources allocated to the white minority. While black South Africans were severely disadvantaged (e.g., infant mortality was 13 times higher than that of whites in 1980), the overall national average was still higher than Nigeria's.

Nigeria's Context: In 1980, Nigeria was experiencing an oil boom but had lower indicators for life expectancy and education compared to South Africa.

Comparative Growth: A 2013 study indicated that South Africa's HDI was 0.658 in 1980, while Nigeria's was much lower. While Black South Africans faced systemic oppression, their, on average, access to higher levels of infrastructure, education, and health services in urban centers compared to rural Nigeria provided a higher HDI value.

In summary, the aggregated data suggests that the systemic investment in infrastructure in South Africa resulted in a better HDI for its population as a whole, including the majority, compared to Nigeria in 1980, despite the oppressive and inequitable conditions of apartheid.

____________________________________________________________________________________

Right now at least 2 million Zimbabweans have migrated to South Africa since year 2000, that's over 10% of the population. That's what you get when you implement anti-Whitey as national policy. Zimbabwe made a choice, they have a right to choose poverty and dignity and suffer the consequences. It has to be said...Nigeria would be a better place to live today and the people would be wealthier and more developed if we had a substantive population of White Settlers or even if the country had simply remained a British Possession. At least they built us a refinery

I grew up in a resort town located near a oil & gas field in Nigeria. The town was very nice and comfortable, it was full of expatriates...not oil workers as such, I'm talking Asian Indians and Carribbean Blacks who had come to Nigeria in search of a better life...teachers, doctors and farmers and shopkeepers. In the 1970's to 1980's, right in the middle of that stupendous "Oil Boom", open defecation was THE NORM in that town and I never touched or saw a telephone.

All this is why I just want to burst out laughing whenever I read those threads about how "Nigeria is better than the UK/US", Nigerians are suffering in the UK/US and Canada, bills are oppressing them, racist police are targeting Blacks everywhere and they can't even afford a ticket to run back to Nigeria...even broke Gerrard visits Nigeria so how expensive can it be

Everyone use their tongue to count their teeth.

Good Luck to Nigerians.

Regarding the Alex shooting. I've seen somewhere that an agent removed the gun which misfired. Agents thinking in split second promptly shot him.
Maybe bayelsaowei can tell us how many seconds they should have waited to confirm the suspect's gun had misfired before shooting him.

Somebody needs to go and tell Dominican Republic to stop enforcing their immigration laws against Haitians! Here's stories from the very liberal AP in 2021 and PBS in 2025

First story is from late 2025. The Dominican Republic has taken a very hard line AGAINST Haitian migrants to their country. These two countries are NEIGHBOURS sharing ONE ISLAND. So why should the USA be taking them in when THEIR NEIGHBORS refused? Why can't the people of Haiti use their Melanin Magical Intelligence and create a country as stable and liveable as Dominica?

The irony is that Haiti once conquered and colonized Dominica


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alqwAzvdJKs?si=aPiZpodmZWMulhnV

Second report from 2021. I've read a report that the Dominican Republic has a zero tolerance policy for migration from Haiti. They've even started construction or maybe already installed a super high-tech fence barrier to keep them out. Where's the outrage?

https://apnews.com/article/dominican-republic-haiti-migrants-deported-crackdown-fb0b796b645e6c418094fe3f28298ea5



I'm hoping our resident activists will reserve some energy for a campaign against the Dominican Republic.

Good Luck to Nigeria.

On same boat. Dominican Republic republic GDP is around $10K and Haiti is $3k.
Haitians claim France blockaded them in the 19th century and forced them to pay annual fines. Hence their poverty. The last payment was in 1947 though
Haitians committed white genocide where they exterminated all Whites in their independence struggle leading to the French blockade and blackmail. (I may be wrong in this).
Don't know much about Haiti which I despise,was Papa Doc Duvalier a cannibal?

The deceased (May his Soul Rest in peace) was directing SUVs to block an ICE raid on a premise that had hundreds of registered medical facilities that grifted on taxpayer's money.
He went there knowingly to obstruct lawful actions by ICE while armed with a $2000 semi automatic SIG 9 mm handgun fully loaded .He had two spare magazines in his car that each carried around 20 bullets.

Start from there and we can meet halfway

Kamala Harris stopped DNA testing at the border the minute she got appointed as a border czar.
Why is this important. Because child traffickers bring in girls and boys across the border claiming they are the parents or relatives. With DNA testing enacted by Trump in 2019 or so ,they would verify if you are related to the minor you are bringing across .
Kamala also made it mandatory that once processed by CBP, illegal aliens would be summoned to appear before an immigration judge to rule on asylum or residency status. They would be released into the interior to parents , guardian or whoever.Most never showed up in immigration courts . Lost kids.

Over 300K children released that Kamala lost track of.
Charlie Kirk called it modern day slavery or child trafficking.

Trump admin has located 129,000 of these kids many who been through an awful ordeal ..As sex slaves or indentured people. Where they have to work to pay the costs $5000 sometimes to recoup the cost of smuggling them in. Lest their relatives back home never get to see their siblings.

Modern day slave labour,sex trafficking or whatever you may call it.
All in effort to import voters. Biden admin ran the most modern human trafficking operation. Hell to prevent illegal being raped enroute to the hallowed country, Biden created an App where one could apply from home. His admin would send planes to fly you to America saving you the hassles of encounters with CBP.( DHS under Trump changed the app to volunteer repatriation)
Hundreds of thousands flown in via chartered planes and sent into the interior bypassing the CBP at the border

Convince me otherwise that Biden admin wasnt a massive human trafficking operation

From the analysis I have seen, it seems like the victim was in for a very badluck. The gun he was carrying was a gun banned from service use because of accidental discharge.

I heard three kinds of guns go off and the first one is likely the victims gun.

Couple that with the rhetoric from Tim Walz,Mayor Frey and police chief .This is a well funded protest movement,intended to stymie the ICE work . Overall there are hundreds of IRS and FBI agents in Minnesota investigating the rampant fraud.This fraud is not only about Somali ,the state govt knew and benefited politically and financially.
Logically the Minnesota state administration wants all focus to be on the evils of the fascist Trump admin .

cc raumdeuter, feedthenation, bayelsaowei,

With the levels of incitement, the protesters know they won't get arrested by MPD . The two dead protesters were acting out of impunity. They can break the law with no consequences at all.
It's human nature to fill the vacuum and go for broke when the outcome is assured.
You can compare this with Justice Smollett faking his attack.He knew the media and democrats would side with him.
Data for 2025 (Jan 20 to Oct 15) shows that ICE made over 1,600 arrests in Minnesota. Of those arrested nationwide, 117 were Somali citizens, with 28 of those apprehended in Minnesota. Protesters are waving Mexican flags and a large number of suburban white liberals are taking part.

Good on you for being charitable.

This man went out to obstruct and protest against police, armed with a gun and refused to follow orders! That's wrong and unsafe. There's States where it's ILLEGAL to take a gun to a political protest.

How did ANYONE expect it will end? And the rationale is to defend ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS?

That man did his family and patients a grave disservice. An experienced ICU nurse is a community asset. He should be alive and at work, not serving as an inspiration for political agitation and riots. It's a damn shame🙄

The advice is simple all around - OBEY THE LAW.

Good Luck to Nigerians.

Location of the shooting.

The sh**tiing of Alex Pretti took place at 2614 Nicollet in Minneapolis - an address that has multiple businesses listed there including daycares

Border Patrol agents fatally shot 37-year-old Alex Jeffrey Pretti at 2614 Nicollet Avenue.

DHS confirmed the address and said the shooting happened during a targeted enforcement action where Pretti allegedly approached agents armed with a 9mm handgun and two magazines of ammunition.

A cluster of businesses at 2614 Nicollet Avenue receive federal funds, (taxpayer dollars) with several implicated in fraud investigations.

These businesses cater to migrant and low-income populations, raising questions about accountability in programs like Medicaid, child nutrition, and community development grants.

Businesses registered at or associated with 2614 Nicollet Avenue include:

Smart Therapy Center LLC: Under investigation for $14 million autism services fraud involving over billing and fictitious claims.

New American Development Center

Nicollet Senior Center Inc.

United Wellness Center

African American Family Services

Millenium Health Services

Bloom Home Health

Global Interpreting Innovations

Of these eight organizations, at least five have direct ties to federal funding and ongoing fraud allegations, including overbilling, kickbacks, and shell operations.

The remaining three are undergoing related audits.

Public databases show 184 National Provider Identifiers (NPIs) registered here for health services alone, none removed from federal programs despite red flags.


It was a target rich area.
Furthermore the parents of the guy have spoken out. Alex Pretti's parents, Michael and Susan Pretti, had a conversation with their son about participating in protests in Minnesota. Michael Pretti recounted,
"We had this discussion with him two weeks ago or so, you know, that go ahead and protest, but do not engage, do not do anything stupid, basically," to which Alex responded affirmatively, indicating his understanding.

Alex gun was a high end $2000 range SIG 9mm handgun with a probable magazine capacity of around 20 . He had two spare magazines in his car.

DHS secretary says it loud and clear.

Maeve7:
How many innocent people is the pro life and all lives matter party going to kill?

Anti-ICE rioter bites off finger of federal agent in Minneapolis
A Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) officer suffered a severe injury when an anti-ICE agitator a bit off his finger during anti-ICE riots.

It happened after the fatal shooting of an armed Anti-ICE agitator earlier in the day.

Secretary Kristi Noem condemned the violence, saying that rioters threw objects—including ice—at officers before the attack on the HSI agent.

The officer is expected to lose the finger permanently as a result of the assault.

bayelsaowei:
So what is the official explanation?

That Alex (who is an ICU nurse) is a hopeless domestic terrorist and was gonna inflict unexplainable damage to ICE agents with a gun?

From the video we've all watched, what did you see?

🚨 THE REAL STORY BEHIND THE VIDEO: While activists are quick to cry "murder," a frame-by-frame analysis of the bystander footage—including the clip captured by the "woman in pink"—reveals a clear, escalating threat that led to the fatal shooting of 37-year-old Alex Jeffrey Pretti.

The narrative being pushed by "ICE Watch" agitators intentionally ignores the series of felonies that preceded the shots.

The Breakdown of the Encounter 🏛️⚖️

Pretti was reportedly in the middle of the street, actively directing traffic through a high-stakes federal enforcement operation—intentionally creating a life-threatening hazard for agents on the ground.

When a federal agent attempted to move him and a woman out of the roadway, a physical struggle ensued. Footage shows the agent pushing the woman as she stumbled in the snow; Pretti then intervened, shoving the agent back.

Under federal law, physical contact with an agent performing their duties is a felony assault. Similar actions at the Capitol have been prosecuted without "defense of others" being allowed as a valid excuse.

As agents moved to restrain and cuff Pretti for the assault, he "violently resisted". It was during this high-intensity scuffle that agents identified a weapon.

Training vs. Narrative 🛡️🚫

As with the Renee Good incident, agents did not draw their firearms until a warning was shouted that a weapon was present. This is standard training: you neutralize the threat once it is identified.

DHS has confirmed that a 9 mm semi-automatic handgun with two loaded magazines was recovered from the scene.

Claiming the suspect was "disarmed" or "helpless" while actively wrestling with multiple agents is a tactical impossibility. If an armed suspect is fighting you, the threat is active until they are secured.

If you're blocking federal operations and shoving agents, you're looking for a fight. Those calling this "murder" are the same people who have opposed immigration enforcement from day one, regardless of the facts.

The lady in pink was recording.Will be interesting what she captured.
