Gun control activist David Hogg suggested during a Sunday morning MS NOW appearance that merely arguing Renee Good may have been in the wrong when she was allegedly fatally shot by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent amounts to “dangerous” rhetoric.
The ousted Democratic National Committee (DNC) vice chair repeatedly used the word “dangerous” to refer to Vice President JD Vance and other Trump administration officials making the case the ICE agent shot Good in self-defense Wednesday in Minneapolis. On the day of the shooting, Assistant Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said Good was “attempting to run over our law enforcement officers” and the agent fired the fatal shot “fearing for his life.” DHS Secretary Kristi Noem likewise likened Good’s last actions to “domestic terrorism.”
“I just think about how incredibly dangerous this rhetoric is, regardless of what she wants to say about this person, they were calling her a domestic terrorist before her body was cold,” Hogg, 25, told “The Weekend” co-host Eugene Daniels on Sunday. “That is so dangerous for the government to be doing that. Across the board, we all should be agreeing that there needs to be an investigation here, before we have anybody in the Executive Branch coming and saying, ‘Well, this is exactly who she [Good] was.’”
