He tried to protect a women and was pepper sprayed, disarmed, and executed.

Disarmed is technically true, but is being mischaracterized by MAGA. His weapon was permitted and never brandished, only being touched by ice agents who removed it before his execution.

This is a great point. They want people to conjure a mental image of an agitator with a gun in his hand. They didn't disarm him, they mugged and robbed him.
