She should be arrested for Sedition
This is absolutely INSANE that you have DEMOCRATIC LAWMAKERS like the state AG putting this out on the wire...
Critics have suggested Kris Mayes effectively put on a 'legal seminar' for how to retroactively justify killing ICE agents.
Republican lawmakers, the Arizona Police Association, and the Trump administration castigated Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes (D) this week over her suggestion that it may be reasonable to shoot masked U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.
Mayes made no secret of her contempt for ICE in her interview with KPNX-TV's Brahm Resnik, suggesting, for instance, that ICE officers are engaged in "thuggish, brutish behavior" and causing chaos, confusion, and anxiety in Minneapolis.
'How do you know they are a peace officer?' (ohhh I dunno... Maybe the unforms or badges? 🤷)...
"It's a combustible situation, let's be clear about that," said Mayes. "It's a combustible situation being caused by ICE right now, wearing masks."
After noting that she was "outraged and sickened" to see ICE agents outside her building and claiming that "real cops don't wear masks," the Democrat AG— who is seeking re-election — made a point of stressing that Arizona is a "stand your ground state."
"We also have a lot of guns in Arizona," she said with a smile.
"You know, it's kind of a recipe for disaster because you have these masked federal officers with very little identification, sometimes no identification, wearing plain clothes and masks, and we have a stand your ground law that says that if you reasonably believe that your life is in danger and you are in your house or your car or on your property, that you can defend yourself with lethal force."
Resnik pumped the brakes and said, "I want to be careful with that and understand what you are saying because you know how that could be interpreted."
"But it's the fact," said Mayes.
While Mayes clarified that you still cannot gun down peace officers in the Grand Canyon State and that she was not giving anyone license to start doing so, she appeared to give would-be killers an excuse, stating, "How do you know they're a peace officer?"
"If there's a situation where somebody pulls out their gun because they know Arizona is a stand your ground state, then it becomes 'did they reasonably know that they were a peace officer?'" said Arizona's top law enforcement officer.
When Resnik once more pressed her for clarification that she was not "telling folks you have license if you are threatened," Mayes said, "Well," and smirked...😮😠🤬
