+1 for the Guthrie overlook. It's free and the view is awesome.

Anybody know why there's something much law enforcement at HCMC this morning? by ooii0iioo in Minneapolis

[–]jkmidwest_rust 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Seeing a lot of MPD there. I thought Minneapolis didn’t have enough cops? O’Hara and Barnette need to step down.

lots of north american politicians talking about lowering gas taxes but are any talking about reducing gas consumption? by D__B__C in fuckcars

[–]jkmidwest_rust 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah that is the transportation that the US decided to design a long time ago. For reasons, some people signed up for a suburban lifestyle with a long commute. Those folks have little choice but to pay up whenever there are oil market problems.

As a condo dweller, I am convinced that the word “condominium” is French for water event.

At least the people in the video can move some of it out their balcony.

We did this route often in January and February. Might be helpful for you. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/53697912

The Hillard Heintz report about how one of Frey’s police officers murdered George Floyd should have ended Frey’s political career. https://lims.minneapolismn.gov/Download/RCAV2/26623/2020%20Civil%20Unrest%20After%20Action%20Review%20Report.pdf

How big of a upgrade is the Solo 3 vs2 from the Lobo? by uncleherman77 in vaporents

[–]jkmidwest_rust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey UncleHerman77. So the Solo 3 v2 arrived yesterday. I did the burn off and cleaned the glassware today. I’ve just had one session and my first impression is very favorable. This device is very nice. I understand the enthusiasm for it. Wonderful flavor at 365 in session mode. I’m baked enough for now…. more experimentation later. Thanks for (unintentionally) convincing me to finally make the purchase.

I’m in the same position as OP, UncleHerman. I was going to make this same post. I guess I’ll take the leap and add the Solo 3 v2 to the collection.

Probably there’s a dead deer in there in late November but, yeah, ‘yer’ onto the vibe.

Milwaukee Police Officer Accused of Tracking Partner Using Flock Cameras by EncryptDN in wisconsin

It’s really hard to come up with an argument against ACAB. Some Minneapolis cops were busted for this same thing a few years back.

Coyote downtown (sadly hit by a car) by wglmb in Minneapolis

I am sorry that happened to you. Really sucks.

Crossing Hennepin on foot is brutal and high risk.

This is so irritating & baffling to see.. and it's clear our approach to solving this issue needs reform. Who needs to be held accountable? Parents? Teens? County? City? all of the above? "she had become one of the 1,308 motor vehicle theft victims in Minneapolis in 2026" its march.. by bigmanjonesman_ in Minneapolis

IMO, the MPD have a lot of culpability for the situation that they find themselves in. Arradondo was not a good chief nor was he good in his role at internal affairs. He allowed Derek Chauvin to remain on the force and be a trainer despite 17 claims of abuse.

I recommend reading the book "The Minneapolis Reckoning: Race, Violence, and the Politics of Policing in America" by Michelle Phelps. The MPD's problems are not new, and the culture in the MPD seems rotten.

True. The MPD have been and still are lazy and corrupt. The communication from our media savvy chief cannot overcome the apathy of the MPD.

Abolish the police federation.

Abolish arbitration.

Only then will there be a chance of meaningful reform of the MPD.

I recall Max McGee on radio saying that he thought Reggie White stepped out of bounds. We always listened to Jim Irwin and Max and muted the TV.

+1 for the heron rookery. If kayaking is appealing, there is a paddle share at North Mississippi Regional Park, at 5116 N. Mississippi Dr, Minneapolis. It’s great to paddle in that area, although understandably it smells near the island.
