FBI Director Kash Patel’s firearm remark on Alex Pretti’s murder has stirred controversy over the Second Amendment. Defending the ICE and Border Patrol, Patel said, “No one who wants to be peaceful shows up at a protest with a firearm that is loaded with two full magazines. That is not a peaceful protest, and you do not get to touch law enforcement. You do that anywhere, this FBI is going to be following — leading the charge to arrest those.”
Kash Patel: “You cannot bring a firearm, loaded, with multiple magazines to any sort of protest that you want. It’s that simple. You don’t have a right to break the law.” (Pretti was carrying a gun legally.) pic.twitter.com/EzGENVT26q
