JONATHAN FAHEY (FORMER ACTING ICE DIRECTOR): Well, that was the first time I saw that, but it does look like this person just from that glimpse, is he's resisting, and if he's armed and they knew he was armed, it was imperative for them to take him down to keep them safe. And, you know, all of this talk about what's happened, and we don't know -- the facts need to come out, I agree with that -- but these officers very well could have prevented a major mass shooting of multiple officers today. And, you know, they are putting themselves in harm's way. And it's unfortunate when somebody dies but, again, people like Governor Walz and Jacob Frey, you would hope instead of tamping down the rhetoric, they come back out swinging trying to sort of fire people up again, it's really shameful.

JON SCOTT (ANCHOR): So he talked, Jonathan, about peaceful protests. But if you're going to a protest, you might take a sign, but why do you have to the take a semiautomatic handgun and a couple of high capacity magazines?
