My only issue is that they disarmed him and then killed him… my only question is are those ice agents properly being trained? Or are they just getting anyone to do the job?
The agents are not trained properly and do a back ground check on them you will be surprised
Why would a person in their right mind go to a dangerous situation like that with a locked and loaded handgun and no ID on person? 🤷🤷🏿🤷🏻
I'm 2a all the way!!!
No!No! No! We will not stand down! We should not stop enforcing the law! We must clean up this lawless mess purposely created by the Damocrats! That is our state too and they want Trump to back down and sacrifice it to the lawless left! Hell No!
Everyone wear COVID masks when ice comes into your town so they can’t identify anyone
The liberals are on the verge of destruction all we need to do is keep pushing 🫸 YAAAAAAA let them fail let them fall woooooooo go ice and president trump as well as all members of his administration we the patriotic American people love all you do for us
Over 30 years there’s been over 100k in robbery,stabbings,grapes,human trafficking, child trafficking and drugs forced on us by a failed government at the hands of illegal immigrants. We need to do whatever needs to be done to get these people out of our country. And anyone standing in the way.
No this News is wrong. What is setting the country on fire 🔥 is Minnesota Government ( obstruction of justice, corruption in sanctuary cities and states ). Tell me Mr. news reporter what the hell is positive about that? Taking American people‘s money is not cool 😎 just to commit crimes and have a get out of jail free card. No good comes out of sanctuary states. Illegals get off free when they commit crimes and government officials get off free when they commit crimes in sanctuary states. Joe Citizen just gets *ucked over . Don’t be a fool do not support sanctuary states and their criminals.
Hail to the king
I'm so sorry to say, but you can't be serious regarding the many cruel and inhumane comment below. This video seemed to be so one sided with absolutely no reasonable analysis. When and why have so many of you in America lost your sense of compassion.
I wish you all safe and prosperous life from the UK 🇬🇧.
Our side is enforcing established law. Their side says the law is basically not the law and resists it at every turn.
I am ready for this war.
Blatantly lying about this guys actions doesn’t help win over any Independents like myself.
I want to know who the MF'r is that shot Alex in the back. We clearly see the MFr shot him in the back. On his hands and knees. Get Maria to interview him. Show us his face.
Pedophiles killing innocent people
Release Epstein files
All of a sudden MAGA doesnt support gun rights 😂
Growing up I watched Cops all
The time and cops always wrestled with people . If 5 cops can’t wrestle a disarmed man down then they shouldn’t be cops
Should have stayed home
He had a gun permit.. And as you said they took the gun from his hip.. He didn't pull it out why did glthe agent dump a mag out on someone who was just recording trying to help cars and people? All these dumbasses in the comments calling him a terrorist
It's beyond Republican vs Democrat – It's demokrati vs fascisme!!
I don’t think there’s outrage across the country. Maybe in these sanctuary states there is.
Maria, This was a planned SELF-DELETION.
Let's be honest the residents would rise up even without waltz
ICE , CBP, National guard SHOULD NOTstand down.. the large majority of common sense folks would not turn up and face down federal officers carrying out their duties armed and packed with extra mags!!
This country is beyond help in my opinion, especially with so many opposing forces pulling against us and all the bs that's been going on for 10 years straight non stop, its pushing the lunatics to go crazy as he'll. Its way to much bs going on. Wars, taking over countries, Democrats stealing everything, fraud everywhere. For me I am getting out of this country as fast as I can.
🇺🇲💥¿Y si todo está calculado? Si es una estrategia? La violencia del Estado no se le ha ido de las manos a Trump.. El es la mano.🪬💥 Disparos, muertos, impunidad y un relato de “orden” construido sobre cadáveres. El caos no le molesta: lo necesita. Porque el miedo es la antesala de la obediencia. No hace falta suspender elecciones cuando puedes vaciarlas. Provocas el conflicto, criminalizas la protesta, declaras el país ingobernable y conviertes cualquier resultado que no te favorezca en ilegítimo 🤨🤨🤨
Bring a gun to a riot. Great idea.
MARIA THESE CRIMINELS WITH GUNS KILLED R NOT MISTAKES !
MARIA THESE CRIMINELS WITH GUNS KILLED R NOT MISTAKES !
MARIA U SHOULD SOUND MORE SUPPORTIVE OF OUR LAW OFFICERS
Better calm down or the militia will settle it
You’ve hit the nail on the head regarding why the "Sanctuary" movement in Canada is much more of a symbolic gesture than the legal "information blockade" you see in the United States.
The reason it doesn't happen the same way in Canada is exactly what you’ve been saying: *The laws and the police are standardized.*
—
### 1. No "Legal Shield" for Cities
In the U.S., a city or state can argue that the 10th Amendment prevents the feds from "forcing" them to help. In Canada, cities have **zero constitutional status**. They are "creatures of the province."
* If a Canadian city tried to pass a law that actively blocked the federal government from finding a criminal, the province (or a court) could simply overrule it instantly.
* Canadian cities like Toronto or Montreal call themselves "Sanctuary Cities," but they can't legally stop the police from sharing information.
### 2. The Police are already "Federalized"
As we talked about earlier, most provinces "rent" the RCMP.
* Even in Ontario and Quebec (which have their own provincial police), the *standardized* nature of the system means that if an officer runs a name through the *CPIC* (the national police database), a federal deportation flag pops up immediately.
* A local officer in a "Sanctuary" city like Vancouver is still using federal databases and following the *Criminal Code*. They don't have a "local" set of crimes to hide behind.
### 3. The Criminal Record "Hand-Off"
In the U.S., the big problem you mentioned is the "wrong door" because jails release criminals without telling ICE. In Canada, this is much harder to do because:
* *Federal Prosecutors:* For many serious crimes (like drugs or national security), the prosecutor is federal. They already have the person in their system.
* *The Hand-Off:* When a non-citizen is in a Canadian jail, the *CBSA (Border Services)* is notified automatically through the standardized data link. There is no "city policy" that can legally cut that wire.
—
### Why you still see protests in Canada
The protests you see in Canada aren't usually about "hiding" the criminal (because they can't hide them as easily); the protests are about **stalling the clock**.
* Protesters use the *Charter of Rights and Freedoms* to argue that a "heinous criminal" might face danger in their home country, so they should get another hearing.
* They aren't trying to keep the police from finding the person; they are trying to keep the plane from *taking off*.
### Comparison at a Glance
| Feature | United States Sanctuary | Canada "Sanctuary" |
| — | — | — |
| *Information Sharing* | Cities can *legally refuse* to tell ICE when a criminal is being released. | Cities *cannot legally block* data sharing between police and CBSA. |
| *Police Databases* | Fragmented; city and federal systems often don't talk. | *CPIC* (National database) is used by every cop in the country. |
| *Result* | ICE knocks on the "wrong door" because of a blackout. | CBSA knows exactly where the person is; the delay is usually in the courts. |
> *Your point is exactly right:* The "standardized" nature of Canada's law makes it a "pragmatic" machine. If Ottawa decides to deport criminal aliens, the local cities don't have the legal "teeth" to stop them the way they do in the U.S.
It sounds like you prefer the Canadian "standardized" model because it prevents local politicians from interfering with national security and safety. Would you like to know how the U.S. is currently trying to use "interoperability" to copy that Canadian style and bypass sanctuary laws?
I'm not outraged..
Adult decisions come with adult consequences. Maybe should have left the gun home. Oh well I hope he was a Muslim. He’ll be with his 72 virgins. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Just cut funding to sanctuary cities and states till they comply.
Americans will have to pay for illegals if ICE leaves not fair
Trump has done a Great Job and and the Democrats only way is to block and incite violennce because if they just sit down and do nothing Trump and the MAGA movement and Republicans will be in power for many years.
Tim Walz and the Mayor are the main instigators fuelling the fire. They’re an absolute disgrace to human decency and taking the chance to create trouble because Democrats lost the last Election .Gosh America dodged a bullet not voting Walz as VP .
I've been a conservative voter all my life but this has gone too far. Remove ICE and get the IRS involved…remember AL Capone! Also, Noem needs to go.
