    So, Minnesota, a very heavy liberal state has racist issues with it's cops and now with it's population. These are all very left\far left liberals running the state and governing the people.

    Home of Ilhan Omar, a woman who married her brother and Al Franken, who fondled a woman on camera as she slept. They imported a whole community of Somali's, one they gave a gun to and he killed an innocent woman who actually called for police protection. Instead, he murdered her. Is he in prison right now?

    Why are people angry with Trump? Barely anybody in the State voted for President Trump.

    Why do these liberal states have such race relation problems? It's not a Republican problem yet so many are directing their anger at President Trump and Republicans.

    What happened to Minnesota? How did they get so far down this rabbit hole?

    Liberal leaders? Importing Somali's? Why do the people living in that State tolerate such behavior?

    Minneapolis is a reflection of its screwed up liberal leadership that promotes and glorifies victimhood, and teaches people that they deserve **** they didn't earn. So, at the drop of a hat they destroy, loot, and burn. The majority probably dont even know why. They just want a new color tv with a five finger discount. No respect for any of these scum.

    It's a one off event triggered by the insanity of a cop killing a black guy on camera.

    Why in the **** the OP chose to bring Trump into it is beyond me.

    The Antichrist already sucks up all of the air in the room as it is.

    And he actually made a statement denouncing it,



    Racist cops - you want to take credit for them as Republicans or Conservatives?

    Agree. They just cannot goevrn properly. They literally promote racism in these states and then wonder why and how they got so racist.

    It's pathetic. Even worse, they blame others for what they foster. These are liberal strongholds that seem to have all of these issues.

    They haven't looted or burned in Bemidji or Grand Rapids or Brainerd or Rochester. I don't think they will.

    What's even funnier, is that the Mayor of Minneapolis or the State of Minnesota didn't even take the initiative to arrest the officer or to actually take action against this Police Office.

    It was President Trump that directed the DOJ and the FBI to go in and investigate this matter.

    Minnesota is helpless.

    I feel like all of these liberal run cities and states are now powder kegs waiting to explode. LA and SFO homeless is out of control and destroying those cities, NY Cuomo kills the elderly with an executive order putting COVID-19 positive patients in nursing homes, Minn. is having huge racial issues and the riots have spread to LA, Denver and NYC.

    These liberal leaders are blaming everybody but themselves, except China is off limits.... and now considered racist to even mention the pandemic started in China... But calling the Federal leadership racist is OK.

    Maybe their policies are causing all of these problems? I think so.

    I'm all for punishing the cops involved if they are found guilty of wrongdoing, absolutely. But what happened does not even remotely justify what these thugs are doing to that city and private busineeses and property. It is inexcusable. Everyone involved should be ashamed of themselves and held accountable for the damage they cause. If I owned a business there I would be sitting out front of it with a few army buddies and assault rifles.

    Democrat leadership which must be crapping in their pants right now because a very large local media station just turned on the Governor and the man child mayor of Minneapolis.

    Minnesota needs to have both the Gov and the Mayor of Minneapolis resign. This is a disgrace.

    Van Jones is a racist idiot. Imagine if a white news person said that about all African Americans.

    The riots will help the economy. Lots of cleanup work, remediation work, rework, refurbishing work, and repair work ahead for skilled and unskilled blue collar in the riot bombed and burned cities.

    But Target is not going to rebuild the store that's a total loss in Minneapolis. Target said fts.

    What is wrong with Minnesota?

    They can’t win a Super Bowl.

    You really need to ask what’s wrong with the Land of 10,000 Lakes? Just look who they voted for.

    In 1984 they voted like this.

    And in 2018 they voted like this.

    Not exactly sure but numbers like these might be fueling some of it....

    "
    More than 2.1 million Americans filed initial unemployment claims last week, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. That brings the total jobless claims since mid-March to a staggering 40.8 million.

    The latest batch of 2.1 million claims are down from the 2.4 million the week prior. While the number of weekly jobless claims has dropped eight consecutive weeks since topping out at 6.9 million in April, it still marks 10 straight weeks with claims topping 2 million"

    https://fortune.com/2020/05/28/us-u...osses-may-28-2020-benefits-claims-job-losses/

    "
    U.S. consumers cut spending by the most on record for the second straight month in April while boosting savings to an all-time high, and the growing frugality reinforced expectations the economy could take years to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic.

    The report from the Commerce Department on Friday also showed an economy highly reliant on the government, with financial aid checks from a historic fiscal package worth nearly $3 trillion driving a record surge in personal income.

    Together with news that monthly exports collapsed, the report left economists anticipating the largest contraction in gross domestic product in the second quarter since the Great Depression. Data has also been dismal this month on the labor market, manufacturing production and homebuilding."

    https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-economy-idUSKBN2352CI

    "As of Tuesday, 4.76 million homeowners were in forbearance plans, including an increase of just 7,000 from the previous week."

    https://www.cnbc.com/2020/05/29/coronavirus-demand-for-mortgage-bailout-slows-to-a-trickle.html

    "
    Back in March, as the unemployment rate started skyrocketing, states started putting eviction moratoriums in place to keep people from becoming homeless in the midst of a global pandemic. The federal government did, too, but only for properties with federally-backed mortgages.

    Now, those moratoriums are starting to expire.

    Already, more than a dozen states, including South Carolina, Virginia, Texas and Wisconsin, have allowed eviction proceedings to resume. By the beginning of June, more than half of states will have no protections in place for renters. By the end of July, almost none will.

    “We are on the precipice of an enormous eviction crisis, a housing crisis that will have societal consequences for the indefinite future unless we intervene immediately,” said Emily Benfer, a visiting professor at Columbia Law School and director of the Health Justice Advocacy Clinic. “These stopgap measures are just that. The moment that they’re lifted, renters who are already hard-pressed will struggle to maintain housing.”

    Makes a lot of sense. Burn down the post office. I wonder how many handout checks from the government were lost?

    They need to treat this like two separate events. The murder of the black by the police was one event.

    The looting and burning is a separate event. The punishment should be handed out independent of each to the other because. the looting and rioting just took advantage of the killing. There are likely a lot of photos of the looting and rioting so many the guilty should be easily identified.

    Well of course they were. Notice that spontaneous -- but mysteriously well organized and professionally directed -- riots occured across this nation just in time to kick off the Dem Party convention process . . . after three and a half years of no particular racial tensions in this nation? It's no coincidence.
