Violent mobs did not just “happen” around Alex Pretti; he chose to stand with them, train with their tactics, and help create the chaos that ended in his own death. Agents were trying to do their jobs, and ordinary drivers were just trying to get their kids home, when those violent mobs once again turned public streets into a weaponized stage for confrontation and fear.
Once you strip away the media spin and political excuses, you see the same pattern of violent mobs playing out over and over again—blocking roads, swarming cars, getting in people’s faces, and daring them to react in ways that can ruin lives. This post is about putting responsibility back where it belongs: on Alex Pretti, on the violent mobs he joined, and on the organizers and enablers who keep training people to manufacture these deadly showdowns.
