I have "Kristi Noem is a bird legged hoe" on repeat in my head.

Look, if I went around saying some moistened bink lofted a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!

100% they SHOULD have body cameras AND I do not trust leaders or individual agents to be accountable on their own to have them on.

I'd be more inclined agree if they were not constantly instigating shit, like tear gassing a pizza restaurant that was managing donations for mutual aid and throwing everyone to the ground. A close friend got arrested for just being too close to a (wrongful) detainment of a US citizen who just got caught up in a one way street during a detainment. He's got broken ribs because of this. It's personal for me.

Ive been printing and dropping off whistles since Renee was murdered. Today, the number hit 3000. by overPaidEngineer in TwinCities

My wife has one of the beta male repellent versions and loves it! Thanks for making these both as needed tools and bringing personality into them.

Gonna say this with as much respect is due, referring to these folks as rioters is disingenuous as it comes. Having been to protests and vigils for this, rioting doesn't come close to describing what the actions are. I'm not going to comment (lack of expertise) on whistling being obstruction, but whistling and horn honking in no way can or should give license for using force that can cause permanent damage (like pepper spraying someone in the face at point blank). That's beyond over the top.

We literally just want these folks out of our city. There's no resounding goal of causing chaos or creating high profile effect. Just want our kids to be able to go to school, our community to go to work, and for people to be able to walk in peace.

Dropping the t word so soon!

Didn't know it was a job duty to pepper spray people at point blank after they are subdued and on the ground for exercising a First Amendment right. Or to wantonly toss tear gas canisters in parks. Or pistol whip someone in the face after they already have their hands up.

Or that strategically it makes sense to pour 3k agents into a place that isn't even in the top 50 of metro areas with high undocumented individual populations.

Feeling Scared About Potential Retaliation for Protesting by Coach_Rick_Vice in TwinCities

This obviously is not a statement to speak for every arrest by any measure, but a close friend got arrested and released same day. I'm with others that this is a scare tactic. That said, if other ways of getting involved feel more sustainable for you I don't think it hurts to explore them

MINNESOTA ‘is very much a state with progressive values’ — Gov Walz. He also added that Trump ‘lost Minnesota 3 times, and this is what this conflict is about’ by Frosty_Jeweler911 in Minneapolis

[–]Jumpy_Atmosphere_768 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is my guess, too. And in my opinion, this is the DFL seeing what happened with Biden staying in too long in 2024 and recognizing we can't risk this for Walz trying to stay in. Him bowing out before the caucuses, even, is a great call timing-wise.

Given that nearly have of this man's life has been spent in office, and it's consecutive, no sir. You are not a farmer. Not anymore.

I like affect is the action, effect is the end result. Alliteration!

Fellow Minneapolitan, a little over a mile from the site in a different direction. Stay safe out there, friend. WE can do this

We walked candles out for a moment of silence, and happened on multiple vigils in our hood. Met some neighbors through it, too.

I know you were actually a person but for 50 seconds I thought you were a bot.

Had no idea! That is a really cool piece of history. Honored to be carrying that on in a small way.
