A Neighbor

Alex Pretti never touched
the gun in his holster
the one he was licensed to carry
the one our second amendment protects
He had no criminal record

~

Alex Pretti wasn’t a protester
he was a witness
He was an ICU nurse at the VA Hospital
He was helping a woman up
off the ground

~

10 shots were fired
in less than 5 seconds
3 shots in his back
He had additional wounds
in his chest and neck

~

Four or five ICE agents had him
on the ground
Even though it didn’t appear
he was trying to resist
Yet they felt the need
to shoot him
until and even after he was dead

~

Pretti is the 2nd United States citizen
shot by federal officers this month
The media called the woman a protester
but she was a neighbor
said the business owner
who knew both of them
