The Dan Le Batard Show · Hour 1: Minnesota (feat. Carl E. Douglas) · 26 Jan 2026 podcast

And when there is the kind of rhetoric that we see from Washington blindly supporting whatever they do, however outrageous it is, it emboldens them.

It's in that context where there's already tension, where every moment of their professional lives, they're being the subject of this backlash that emboldens them to be more aggressive.

Alex Pretty, as you and your listeners I'm sure knows, was unarmed when he was shot.

An officer had removed whatever weapons he lawfully carried when he was shot.

Renee Good was trying to get away when she was shot and there were two shots fired in the side of the window of her open driver's side door as she was past the officer and he was no longer in threat.

Officers are not trained to simply fire until they're out of bullets.

They're trained to fire only when they are confronted with an imminent threat.

And in the case of Alex Preti, 10 shots after he was unarmed is clearly excessive.

But when you have ICE officials coming out within minutes of the shooting, calling the victims domestic terrorists, that emboldens the cops.

When you have protesters that are continuing to be vocal, that emboldens the cops and it raises the tension.

So Dan, regrettably,

I hope you have me on your show again.

This is going to happen again.

It may not be in Minneapolis.

It may be in Boston.

It may be in Chicago.

It may be in Detroit.

But when you have marauders who are not uniformed driving common looking SUVs riding six deep

It will continue to foster a circumstance when other lesser trained officers are going to be afraid, frightened, and emboldened, and there will be more citizens killed.

There is no absolute immunity if you use force unreasonably.
