Minnesota is a national embarrassment.

From today’s MN outdoor news in the “cuffs and collars” section where game wardens report on their weekly activities. Looks like a couple game wardens from where my land is got called down to the cities for protests.. embarrassing they are using game warden resources for such BS. Really doubt it’s to support ICE. Note the two my fingers are on and the one above the top finger.. I didn't read the metro warden ones, i'll have to check that too. Be pretty jacked up if they are taking resources from outstate but not the local wardens. "Rocks and Cows" comes to mind.

Doesn't make a lot of sense but nothing does anymore.

I travel for a living, 200-250 days a year in a different city every night.
Let tell you…. I have not seen 1/4 the vacant buildings in any downtown as I saw a couple weeks ago in MSP. I’ve been doing this for 13 years, and MSP’s downtown businesses are DYING. Even the west coast, with homeless encampments on the sidewalk and open drug use, doesn’t have the rapid loss of business I keep seeing every time I overnight in MSP.

Have you been to Portland lately?
Ten years ago it was a great place to visit, now it’s a cesspool where you can’t even walk a kid in a stroller down the sidewalk middle of the day.
Businesses downtown all closed up, city and federal buildings boarded up with high fence around them from riots four or five years ago.
All the decent businesses, restaurants and stores moved across the river to Vancouver WA.
 
Shitties are gonna explode today
 
Like to see the cluseup. Dude probably grabbed for a gun or something. Dont resist. Easy enough.

Gonna take allot to get me to visit anywhere in Minneapolis now. Travel thru the airport....and that is it for me. I'm not sure I would take free tickets to a Vikings playoff game. Screw Minneapolis. Gotta get rid of all that financial support given to the "Somolia Community". Quit subsidizing those bastards. Get them out of here. They are stealing our children's futures.....slowly and surely. The whole sanctuary city concept is wrong and corruption thrives.
 
South Minneapolis has been a zone of transition as long as I can remember. I grew up 100 miles to the South West.....but, Between High School, the Army, College, and early work life, I lived and often worked within a few blocks of Lake Street in South Minneapolis, It has always been a hot-spot for young people, mixed races, low cost apartments, drug and alcohol abuse, house parties, and university life, etc. Lots of chaos in this area....always. In short, it's always been "where the action is".

I think you can take a 15 mile stretch (?) of Lake street from lake Calhoun to St Paul and a two mile stretch North and South from Lake street....and it's in this area you are going to find 80% of the crime and turmoil taking place. This area includes the downtown, Cedars / Riverside, Little Somalia (aka Little Mogadishu), the tent communities that spring up, Target Center, US Bank Stadium, the George Floyd debacle, BLM Headquarters, the warehouse district, 7 Corners, the bulk of the light rail (which was to re-vitialize the downtown and connects downtown to the Mall of America), Dinky town, "UP-Town", The U of M, and the third precinct which was burned to the ground. This area has something for everyone that thrives on Chaos.

All of these known areas are just a stones throw from one to the next....and some overlap. In general it's called South Minneapolis. Yes, there are some other pockets of chaos too.....but none are so connected as this general area.

Few people with the financial means will stay living in this area. It's always been an area to find trouble. But the corruption and subsidies only added fuel to the fire. Then, the sanctuary status, and the importation of the Somali community put it over the edge. Very fragmented interests with special needs / motives.

Not sure what to do with this area......but if the Lord wanted to give the world an anemia......this is where he would insert the tube.

From what I can see, it looked like Alex (dude who got shot) was trying to protect another protester from pepper spray or get between her(?) and ICE with back to ICE. ICE starts beating on him, he turtles, covers head, ICE guy pulls Alex's pistol off back of his hip, and other agent starts dumping bullets into him.

I'm open to new info/considerations but from what i've seen it's real hard to defend ICE actions on this one. This is ugly!
 
Agent disarming him

Agent with gun after disarming, immediately before getting shot.

100% avoidable just like the lady who was shot.

If you are armed and fight with cops, you might get shot. If you drive a car at a cop, you might get shot. If you let the cops do their job, you won’t get shot.

Where's the fighting part? He's trying to block a woman and move her out of the way. Gets sprayed in the face, and turtles on the ground as he gets it from every angle before being shot.
 
With some of these takes, i sure hope you guys dont ever carry concealed around a cop..
 
Tim Walz just said ICE is not law enforcement? He’s encouraged locals to resist ICE.

It’s so upsetting, South Dakota or Iowa … I just can’t wait to change my residency! If I was retired I’d be building a shouse as fast as I can.

Love my Minnesota rural lakes area, but I don’t see leadership ever changing in Minnesota. Minneapolis controls us, what a mess !
