The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

What kind of mentally-ill person gets a rib broken because he is fighting with LEO's

If he had assaulted the officers, there would be a criminal complaint against him on file.

Seems that the officers attacked him.

Pretti’s earlier encounter with federal officers unfolded after he saw ICE agents chasing what he described as a family on foot. He stopped his car and began shouting and blowing his whistle, the source said.

Pretti, an ICU nurse at a Veterans Affairs hospital, told one of CNN’s sources that five agents tackled him. During the altercation, one of the agents leaned on his back, leaving him with a broken rib. Pretti was released at the scene.

Typical of the rousting we see from the storm troopers: rough people up, then walk away.

That's just the weapon they knew about.

As suggested before, because you can't tell if someone is carrying, or not, legally, or not, just kill all the civilians in sight, to "keep the LEOs safe", right?
