Here We Go Again (Minneapolis, MN)

[Gil Dobie]

Hearing that the Minnesota Twins are offering some really good deals on tickets. Is it because the Twins suck this year or because nobody wants to go to Minneapolis to a game (or maybe both). A lot of people around here will go to Twins games but all the ones I've talked to have said not this year.

Both, but some nasty stuff going on in downtown Minneapolis. Workers don't want to go back to work with robberies and reported daylight rapes happening downtown.

Yep. That "Defunding the Police" is working out exactly as planned....

Daylight rapes. JFC! Minneapolis FTW over Baltimore in a category for once.

Was at a work event today in which this topic came up with three other individuals. Two of which used to live in the twin cities and said they are glad they got out as the place is a mess. Yet all three I am pretty sure lean left and none realize what lead up to the mess down there and the fact that it is only going to get worse since law enforcement has taken an unofficial hands off approach due to the circumstances in the cities.

It’s that exact lack of self awareness, no understanding of cause/affect, that scares me about all the people leaving NY and CA in droves. They’ll move somewhere and vote the EXACT. SAME. WAY. That caused all those issues in the first fucking place.

Yep.

More rioting and looting in MSP because police shot a suspect who alledgedly pulled a gun on the police during an attempted arrest.

Well he does make frequent trips to the Columbia River gorge and he lives on a houseboat (down by the river). I’m not saying those are convenient places to “disappear” things...but the timing of his arrival....

The Columbia River gorge.....known around those parts as “the train station”....

I spend a few days "hiking" in Central Oregon and come back to spurious allegations. What's wrong with me trying to follow in the footsteps of my idol, 89?

Winston Smith? The dude from 1984?

Chauvin gets 22.5 years. That seems a bit odd to me. I would have thought either life or execution. I suppose those don't fit the charge, but more what he SHOULD have been charged with. That video looked like flat out murder to me....

Every murder is flat-out murder. Rarely do they get the death penalty.

Almost double the min of 12 years.

And now we have erected statues (with more to come) of a convicted felon, with the House donks passing a justice reform bill (without a single conk vote) named after a convicted felon..

[andy7171]

Reverse the engines!!!!

The republicans are for defunding the police! WTF!?!

If this is true, she should not be VP. Helping rioters and looters get out of jail.

What do you mean IF? It was a story back then. Sometimes I wonder if I a the only person with a memory of over 8 months.

What cornfield have you been standing in?

She wasn't the only one doing it, either.

Kind of agree with Andy, this was front and center when it happened and she had plenty of company on the left. This wasn't a secret or anything.
