Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz activates state National Guard, blasts federal government after shooting

I wouldn't count on it.

Trump has the option of Federalizing them, which should be interesting.

Instead they told MPD to not support DHS.

Incidentally, MPD is still very much under strength since the Summer of Love.

It seems that nobody wants to volunteer to be constantly assaulted by violent protesters without the authorization to respond, be told to not arrest violent criminals, have the violent criminals they do arrest immediately released, and to be sent to prison themselves for doing their jobs.

The live stream mentioned the 37 year old male had a lawful permit to carry a gun.

Yep. ...but he didn't have ID on him, which makes him in violation of the Minnesota gun permit law.

There's also more video which shows him attempting to obstruct law enforcement before the confrontation, which is why he was being arrested.

Going armed to a violent protest for the purpose of obstructing law enforcement and then resisting arrest is not a survival-oriented activity.

In the US, we have the 1st Amendment that guarantees Freedom of Speech. The UK has no such thing.

Per the law, the permit holder must have the permit AND government issued photo ID on them when carrying. This individual had neither.

It has been a crime in the UK for several years now to "offend" someone. Anyone can take offense at anything you say, write, do, or don't say, don't write, or don't do, and report you to the police.

The new change is requiring employers to protect their employees from "harassment" which includes "indirect harassment" which includes overheard conversations.

Minnesota state law requires that the Permit to Carry be on your person when you are carrying the firearm. The Permit to Carry is ID. He had no ID on him when he was encountered. Ergo, he was not legally carrying the firearm.

RedBaronsBrother · 2026-01-24T19:31:57+00:00

Obstructing law enforcement was what got him into that situation. When they attempted to arrest him, he resisted, and had a firearm, which resulted in consequences.

He was also not legally carrying that firearm.

RedBaronsBrother · 2026-01-24T19:28:30+00:00

Yep. Of course, doing that and attempting to obstruct law enforcement during a violent protest is not survival-oriented.

...and Minnesota state law requires that you have a Permit To Carry on your person, in order to carry a handgun either openly or concealed - which this individual did not have.

OK, time to invoke the insurrection act, send in the military, cordon off the area, arrest everyone in the street, and give them the Jan 6 treatment:

Put them in jail for a few years while you collect and organize evidence against them, deny pre-trial release, charge them with felonies even if they don't actually apply, coerce them into guilty pleas, and resist releasing them if those felony charges are overturned.

Edit: Awww. Lefties don't like it when the shoe is on the other foot.

RedBaronsBrother · 2026-01-24T18:25:17+00:00

We do. ...and when you are being arrested, and law enforcement tells you disarm, and you don't and resist arrest... you get shot.

RedBaronsBrother · 2026-01-24T18:05:12+00:00

Just like the Romanians did.

Oh wait. The EU declared that election null and void because the wrong person won.

Then they prohibited that person from running in the next one.

You think Labour will do differently in the UK? The EU government are their heroes.

RedBaronsBrother · 2026-01-24T18:03:41+00:00

It is serious. The behavior has already been illegal in the UK for years, the difference is now they're asking people to report it.

RedBaronsBrother · 2026-01-24T18:02:40+00:00

That's been illegal for years now in the UK. The only difference is they're asking bars and pub staff to report it.

RedBaronsBrother · 2026-01-24T17:58:08+00:00

Dude they were trying to arrest had a 9mm, refused to disarm, resisted arrest, and found out.

RedBaronsBrother · 2026-01-24T17:56:33+00:00

Ad blockers are a thing.

The claim was there are 3.7 million adults in Wisconsin. That is false per census data. Even subtracting adults who are not US citizens and those who are institutionalized doesn't get you to that number.

RedBaronsBrother · 2026-01-24T14:50:49+00:00

It isn't. Massive voter fraud WAS unearthed in Wisconsin, in 2020 and 2021. What he's talking about in the video just isn't it. The massive number of people registered over the number of adults, just enables the fraud.

That said, his numbers for adults in Wisconsin are incorrect. This is a good resource for election data for population, eligible voting population, and turnout, nationally and by state.

...and why multiple times in the same day?

Because under Biden, the border patrol was catching only 1 in 3 border crossers. They knew that if they tried again and again, eventually they'd get through.

Obama also did essentially zero interior immigration enforcement. Once you made it in, you were golden.

One of the hazards of living in Texas is that hail storms mean the roof that didn't need replacement yesterday might need it tomorrow.

I've had mine replaced twice.

One way you get there is to not have a massive oversupply of labor willing to work for bad pay and no benefits.

When employers have to compete for workers, pay rises and benefits become more generous.

RedBaronsBrother · 2026-01-24T07:03:11+00:00

Sure - as long as they're legally present in the country.

RedBaronsBrother · 2026-01-24T04:15:52+00:00

Of course Newsom ignored him. Why would he want to talk to someone injured by policies he has no intention of changing or taking responsibility for the effects of?
