1月27日(路透社)- 美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周二表示,在明尼阿波利斯对峙中被联邦特工开枪打死的男子亚历克斯·普雷蒂本不该携带枪支或满装弹药的弹夹。这一言论使他与拥枪权利团体及部分共和党人产生分歧。

当被问及是否同意政府官员将普雷蒂描述为国内恐怖分子时,特朗普称:“我没听说过这一点,但他肯定不应该携带枪支。”

特朗普在爱荷华州一家餐厅对记者发表上述言论后补充道:“他当时持有枪支。我不喜欢这样。他还有两个装满弹药的弹夹。这都是些很糟糕的东西。尽管如此,我还是认为……这非常不幸。”

普雷蒂是持证隐蔽携枪者,周六在明尼阿波利斯的一次移民执法行动中被联邦特工击毙。这起枪击事件遭到广泛批评,并促使白宫下令进行领导层调整。

包括有影响力的美国全国步枪协会(NRA)和美国枪支所有者协会在内的拥枪权利团体表示,普雷蒂合法携带隐蔽枪支。普雷蒂被杀的旁观者视频被广泛传播,显示他在被枪击前从未碰过枪,这与特朗普政府官员最初声称他对执法人员构成威胁的说法相矛盾。

美国枪支所有者协会(Gun Owners of America)发言人路易斯·巴尔德斯称:“你完全可以带着枪支四处走动,也完全可以在持枪的情况下和平抗议。这是美国一直以来的历史传统,可追溯到波士顿倾茶事件。”

“对于特朗普的最新言论,我们并不满意。”巴尔德斯表示。

拥枪权利团体是共和党最忠实的投票集团之一。特朗普及其他政府官员的此类言论在11月中期选举前造成了裂痕。

特朗普在爱荷华州一家餐厅向支持者致意时发表上述评论,随后他原计划发表关于经济的演讲。他表示,他的边境问题特别顾问汤姆·霍曼(Tom Homan)已会见明尼苏达州州长蒂姆·瓦尔兹(Tim Walz),并预计周二晚些时候将与明尼阿波利斯市市长雅各布·弗雷(Jacob Frey)会面。

Jan 27 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday said Alex Pretti, the man fatally shot by a federal agent during a confrontation in Minneapolis, should not have been carrying a gun or fully loaded magazines, comments that put him at odds with gun rights groups and some Republicans.

Asked whether he agreed with administration officials who described Pretti as a domestic terrorist, Trump said: “I haven’t heard that, but certainly shouldn’t have been carrying a gun.”

Trump, speaking to reporters at an Iowa restaurant, later added: “He had a gun. I don’t like that. He had two fully loaded magazines. That’s a lot of bad stuff. And despite that, I’d say that’s…very unfortunate.”

Pretti, a licensed concealed-weapons holder, was killed on Saturday by federal agents during an immigration enforcement operation in Minneapolis. The shooting drew broad criticism and prompted a White House-ordered leadership shakeup.

Gun rights groups, including the influential National Rifle Association and Gun Owners of America, said Pretti was legally carrying a concealed gun. Bystander video of Pretti’s killing was widely shared, showing he never touched his gun before being shot and contradicting some Trump officials’ initial claims that he posed a threat to law enforcement.

“You absolutely can walk around with a gun, and you absolutely can peacefully protest while armed,” said Luis Valdes, a spokesman for the Gun Owners of America, a gun rights lobbying group. “It’s an American historical tradition that dates all the way back to the Boston Tea Party.”

“We are not happy,” Valdes said of Trump’s latest comments.

Gun rights groups are one of the Republican Party’s most loyal voting blocs. Such statements by Trump and other administration officials have opened a rift ahead of midterm elections in November.

Trump made his comments while greeting supporters at an Iowa restaurant before a scheduled speech on the economy. He said his border czar, Tom Homan, had met Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and was expected to meet Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey later on Tuesday.
