John Leguizamo warns ICE supporters to steer clear of his shows after agents killed Alex Pretti in Minnesota

John Leguizamo has a message for supporters of ICE: 'Don't come to my shows.'

The 65-year-old actor and comedian shared a video to his Instagram account on Wednesday in which he indicated that he didn't want any fans who were also fans of the actions of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

Leguizamo is the latest star to speak out against ICE amid its crackdown in Minnesota and the shooting deaths of Alex Pretti and Renée Good by ICE agents.

Pretti, a 37-year-old intensive care unit nurse, was shot and killed by ICE agents on January 24 after he apparently attempted to intervene on behalf of a woman who had just been shoved to the ground by ICE agents.

Although DHS and Border Patrol officials initially claimed that Pretti had 'brandished' a firearm before he was killed, bystander video appears to show one agent removing Pretti's handgun — which he was licensed to carry — just moments before two other agents shot him 10 times.

In Leguizamo's video, the actor stared down into the camera with a stony face as he declared: 'If you follow ICE, unfollow me.'

It wasn't just in-person run-ins with ICE supporters at his comedy shows that he was trying to avoid, as the Ice Age voice actor added that he didn't want fans of the agency to take any pleasure from his film work. 

'Don't come to my shows and don't watch my movies,' he added.

Leguizamo captioned his video: 'Abolish ice!' 

The clip, which had just under 300,000 likes after 10 hours, had plenty of supportive comments, including one from Everybody Loves Raymond actor Brad Garrett, who echoed the sentiment.

'Me too!!!! 👏👏👏👏❤️,' he wrote. 

Leguizamo has long been a supporter of liberal causes and a vocal critic of President Donald Trump.

In August, he took the actor Dean Cain to task for a video in which Cain said he had joined ICE, and his Instagram account is currently plastered with anti-ICE and anti-Trump administration reposts.

Cain recently spoke up in support of ICE and declared in an interview with TMZ Live that Alex Pretti 'certainly wasn't just being a peaceful protester' before he was shot and killed.

Leguizamo's video was shared shortly after another star, Natalie Portman, broke down in tears as she discussed the ICE enforcement operations currently taking place. 

The agency has made thousands of arrests since Trump returned to the White House, sparking public protests across the nation. 

Portman, 44, attended the premiere of her new film The Gallerist at the Sundance Film Festival in Utah on Saturday, where she sported an ICE OUT pin while posing for photographers. 

The premiere came after Pretti was shot dead during an altercation with federal agents earlier that day.

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem claimed in a press conference that Pretti had 'reacted violently' amid the altercation and further questioned why he was carrying a legally-held weapon at the time. 

She added that Pretti had 'impeded their law enforcement operations, attacked those officers, had a weapon on him and multiple, dozens of rounds of ammunition.' 

Natalie was emotional over the incident as she began to tear up while speaking with the press on the red carpet. 

'It's such a horrible day, it's been a horrible week. What is happening in our country is just onscene,' she said.

'What Trump and Kristi Noem and ICE are doing to our citizens and undocumented people is outrageous and needs to end. 

'I'm very moved by all the people coming out and supporting each other in community and showing the best of America. It's just too much, it needs to end.'

In another interview at the same event, she said: 'Of course, we're at an unfortunately horrific moment in our country with the federal government attacking civilians in our own cities. 

'I'm so lucky to be here in a joyful, creative community celebrating a movie we're really proud of, but it's impossible to ignore what ICE is doing to our country. 

'I'm very inspired by all the amazing Americans who are coming out and supporting each other and being there in communities, it's beautiful.'

Stars such as Mandy Moore and Ariana Grande shared their outrage following the incident over the weekend. 

Mandy took to her Instagram stories not long after the incident and reposted a New York Times article that had the headline: 'Federal Agents Shoot And Kill A Person In Minneapolis, Officials Say.' 

The actress then added her own message at the bottom, which read, 'We have eyeballs. 

'We've seen the video. They executed someone else. I'm not sure how this ends. This is terrifying territory.' 

Ariana reposted a tweet shared by NYC mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani, who wrote, 'As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today. 

'ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.'    

On Saturday, Pretti's family issued a statement on his death, saying he had been killed 'by murdering and cowardly thugs.' 

'Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital.

'Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not through around the hero term lightly.

'However his last thought and act was to protect a woman.

'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'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.' 

They concluded with, 'Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man.'

While the family accused ICE of the shooting, it was actually carried out by officers from the Department for Homeland Security (DHS).

On Saturday evening, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem echoed claims Pretti 'brandished' a weapon at her agents before his shooting.

But footage taken of the killing appears to dispute her claims.

One agent was seen removing what appeared to be Pretti's legally-owned handgun from his waistband.

Pretti was an avid outdoorsman who enjoyed getting into adventures with Joule, his beloved Catahoula Leopard dog who also recently died.

He had also participated in protests following the January 7 killing of Renee Good by an Immigration and Customs officer.

Pretti was a US citizen, born in Illinois. Like Good, court records showed he had no criminal record and his family said he had never had any interactions with law enforcement beyond a handful of traffic tickets.

In a recent conversation with their son, his parents, who live in Colorado, told him to be careful when protesting.

Family members said Pretti owned a handgun and had a permit to carry a concealed handgun in Minnesota. They said they had never known him to carry it.

The family first learned of the shooting when they were called by a reporter for the Associated Press.
