TWO SHOOTERS. Not just a lone dumbass in a panic, poorly trained, altho a gun expert claims they were running with fingers on triggers, so they are indeed lacking any real law enforcement skills. Taught to gun people down like it’s their Call Of Duty, the video game they gushed on afterwards,

Andy McCarthy lays out why having DHS investigate Alex Pretti's murder is so problematic.
