# Minneapolis Mayor Frey’s Blunder: Admitting Not a Domestic Terrorist While ICE Shoots Unarmed Woman
In a jaw-dropping moment on CNN’s *State of the Union*, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey (D) openly declared that Renee Good, the woman shot by an ICE officer during a chaotic protest, was not a domestic terrorist—a statement that’s as revealing as it is politically explosive. Frey’s comment came while defending the optics of the incident, insisting that anybody watching the video could see Good wasn’t some bomb-planting extremist. But let’s peel back the layers: this isn’t just a slip of the tongue; it’s a tacit admission that federal agents gunned down an unarmed protester who, by the mayor’s own words, posed no terrorist threat. Video footage circulating online shows Good approaching officers amid the unrest, only to be dropped by a single shot—sparking outrage from anti-ICE activists and now, awkwardly, validation from the city’s top Democrat. Frey’s pivot from the usual back the blue rhetoric exposes the fault lines in how left-leaning leaders narrate these clashes, especially when the feds are involved.
For the 2A community, Frey’s Freudian slip is a goldmine of irony and ammunition. Here’s the clever twist: while Democrats like Frey routinely demonize law-abiding gun owners as domestic terrorists for merely exercising their Second Amendment rights—think parents at school boards or hunters in the woods—they’re now bending over backward to humanize an anti-ICE agitator caught in a shooting. Good wasn’t toting an AR-15 at a rally; she was just another unarmed face in the crowd, yet Frey rushes to her defense. This double standard screams hypocrisy: if anybody can see Good isn’t a terrorist, why can’t they see the same for the millions of responsible 2A carriers smeared by the same politicized label? It underscores a deeper implication—government overreach thrives on vague terrorist boogeymen, whether it’s justifying ICE’s lethal force or ATF raids on pistol brace owners. The 2A fight isn’t just about guns; it’s about reclaiming the narrative from mayors who cheer federal firepower abroad but clutch pearls when it turns domestic.
The ripple effects? This could supercharge 2A advocacy in urban battlegrounds like Minneapolis, where Frey’s gaffe hands pro-gun voices a viral talking point: if even a blue-city mayor rejects the terrorist tag for protesters, how much more absurd is it for rifle-toting patriots? Expect memes, ads, and op-eds to hammer this home ahead of midterms, reminding voters that self-defense rights aren’t negotiable—regardless of who’s holding the gun or pulling the trigger. Stay vigilant, 2A fam; moments like this are why we curate the truth.
