Golden State Warriors-Minnesota Timberwolves podcast by Mauricio Segura:

The NBA had ordered on Saturday that the game between the Golden State Warriors at Minnesota Timberwolves after a second fatal shooting by federal immigration officers in Minneapolis. The NBA made the decision to cancel game one of a two game series due to “Prioritze the safety and security of the Minneapolis community.” This after 37 year old victim Alex Pretti was gunned down by ICE officers two miles outside of downtown Minneapolis where Target Center is located the home of the Timberwolves.

Pretti was a intensive care nurse at the Veterans Administration. DHS secretary Kristen Noam said that Pretti was a domestic terrorist who was armed and was a threat to ICE officers and that officers had no choice but to kill Pretti. After watching the video taken from witnesses analysts say that Pretti did not unholster a weapon if he even had a weapon as ICE says he had according to news reports.

Pretti was shot some eight times by ICE officers with Noam saying the killing was justified. Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr who had been vocal about gun violence as his own father was murdered by gun violence had been a vocal advocate against gun useage and had made a statement when Minnesota citizen Renne Good was shot by ICE officer Jonathan Ross killing Good who was trying to drive away from Ross.

The Timberwolves called for a moment of silence after the Good shooting before one of their home games after the shooting coach Kerr said, “I’m glad the Timberwolves recgonized her life and the tragic nature of her death it’s shameful really that in our country we can have law enforcement officers commit murder semmingly get away with it. It’s shameful the government can come out and lie about what happened when there’s video witnesses who have all come out and disputed what the government is saying. So very demoralizing, devestasting, to lose anyone’s life especially in that matter so it’s terrible, terrible, I’m really sad for her family for her and that city and for the Timberwolves I’m glad they came out and expressed that sadness.”
