Alex Pretti, the man fatally shot by Border Patrol Saturday, was a local intensive care nurse dedicated to caring for veterans.

“Alex wanted to make a difference in this world,” Pretti’s family said in a statement shared with The Post.

The so-called ' ethical standards ' of many MSM Journo's, from my experience of the deaths of the Liverpool Fans @Hillsbrough Tragedy, are largely a mere fig-leaf for the Press Magnates, including Digger Murdochs coterie, greed and rapaciousness.

They don't offer any way out for the UK. You can still feel the arrogant pride in this article.

Time to admit the truth: Brexit has been an unmitigated economic failure
Leaving the EU has reduced Britain’s GDP by up to 8pc, according to a devastating US study
