Remember, you get what you vote for (unless it's a Presidential election)

In 2020, a Minneapolis police officer killed George Floyd, sparking national outrage and a demand for change. Derek Chauvin was convicted of his murder, and three other former officers are also facing charges, but advocates say that’s not enough. 

On Tuesday, Minneapolis residents will vote on an amendment to the city’s charter. If it passes, that would limit the size and scope of the police department, and incorporate a public health approach. Soledad talks to Minister JaNaĆ© Bates, the Communications Director for Yes 4 Minneapolis, the coalition behind the proposal.

Just watch, they'll vote to limit their PD, then crime, which is already skyrocketing there, will explode and then the 16 remaining law abiding residents will be pleading with their local government to do something about it.

    1. Officer Derek Chauvin was in the general vicinity while saint george floyd completed his inevitable suicide.
      .
      All the video I watched clearly show everybody doing everything in their power to prolong the life of saint george floyd, but he was a determined fellow.

  3. Honestly, at this point? Phuck em, phuck em all.
    The blue cities will never, EVER change. Wall them off and let them slide into the cesspool they are. Shoot anyone that tries to get out! Snake Plissken level shit here.

  5. And then when all of the stores have moved away because the losses from theft erased any profits , and nobody will risk starting a business for fear of civil unrest and looting will happen yet again , then what ? blame the anglo saxons ? Blame the locals who allow and encourage the rot. Anyone with a lick of sense has already made an exit .

    1. The rioters are holding-off further displays of indignation until shelves are re-stocked.

  6. I think it's a great idea.
    I'm setting up a tour:
    San Francisco, Los Angles, Portland, and now Minneapolis.
    Suggestions for other cities gratefully accepted.

    1. Look up the Kensington area in Philly. It’s like a zombie flick with all the druggies shambling about.

    2. Can't forget Chiraq! While you're there, see if you can discharge a few dozen rounds at "Lightn'loafers house ... just to let her/him know that you're in town!
      The cops likely will applaud as you "do the drive by"!

  7. Neutron bombs over every large urban center would yield the lowest cost/benefit ratio.

  8. Been flying to MSP 1 out of every 3 weeks, drive a 100 miles into the farm land. Once out of metro 'Twin Cities' you see support the police yard signs. The entire state is driven by voters in MSP and Duluth. Like many states, those cities will never turn back from violence

  9. "the 16 remaining law abiding residents will be" ... leaving shortly.

    I'm with anonymous at 9:51 AM above. Wall the city off, shoot any escapees. I would only add give everyone an M16 and 100 rounds. Come back in 5 years, see who's left, then kill all of them too.

    There an old adage about making sure to kill a fly: Use an elephant gun.

  11. Look at polls from MPLS and you'll see it's the crackas calling to dismantle the cops. The black folks know better. At least the ones who aren't all BLM and shit. I'm about 40 miles away so I really don't care what they do in that shithole.

  12. There are two terrible things is life: the first is not getting what you want; the second is getting it.
