Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) defended the “Constitutionally protected God-given right” to carry a firearm after a Minneapolis protester carrying a handgun was shot by a Border Patrol agent on Saturday.

The Trump administration is defending federal law enforcement after a shooting left Alex Pretti, 37, dead, with video showing he was disarmed before being shot multiple times. Pretti was helping another protester who had been shoved to the ground when an agent began pepper-spraying him from behind and wrestled him to the ground with the help of several other agents. During the struggle, an agent was seen carrying what appeared to be Pretti’s gun away, with the fatal shots being fired seconds later.
