Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the hero term lightly. However his last thought and act was to protect a woman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump&#8217;s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He has his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down all while being pepper sprayed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>We are all behind you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Related <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mewetoo.com\/\">Me We Too<\/a><\/em>\u00a0polls:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mewetoo.com\/post\/9369-23279\/ice-should-not-be-wearing-masks-to-hide-their-identity\">ICE should not be wearing masks to hide their identity<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mewetoo.com\/post\/9362-77285\/more-often-than-not-video-is-the-only-thing-standing\">More often than not, video is the only thing standing between a lie and a life being ruined by it.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mewetoo.com\/post\/9414-31093\/believe-your-eyes-not-the-lies-of-the-trump-admin\">Believe your eyes.
