The site appeared to gain popularity following the fatal Jan. 7 shooting of 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good by an ICE agent in Minneapolis.

The DHS initially alleged that Pretti approached federal agents while armed with a 9mm handgun and “resisted vigorously” when they attempted to disarm him.
An officer was seen pulling a gun from Pretti’s waistband moments before Pretti was shot by Border Patrol agents.
State officials confirmed Pretti had a legal carry permit.
