Why are Republicans defending the killing of Alex Pretti?

One of my old school conservative friends on Facebook (not a Trump supporter) commented the above question. It seems clear to me that Pretti cooperated with ICE and was executed.

What’s the heart of the matter?

The same reason why back when I needed help and to talk about the oppression I was facing as an ex muslim, I often had to deal with democrats trying to silence me.

People do not like nuances that challenge their narratives. They want to cling to delusional certainties and binary thinking.
