These are not protesters. These are mob rioters. They - also tried to attack the 3rd Peecinct Posted: May 28th, 2020 - 12:26 pm In Reply to: Sure. You keep telling yourself that - Stay comfy
police station.
And for your info, just a quick geographical clarification from someone who lives in the Twin Cities...
The riots are not happening in parts of downtown Minneapolis. They are happening in a specific neighborhood of south Minneapolis - about two miles south and southeast of downtown Minneapolis.
There also was some property damage in the Hennepin-Lake area of Minneapolis. That area is westerly on the other side of Minneapolis from the riots and mayhem. The targets were (no surprise) a liquor store, a jewelry store and a Verizon store. They also attempted to break into an Apple Store but were fended off by two armed security officers.
The area in question is heavily minority, black, Somali and Hispanic. There have been efforts to gentrify it by building new housing - some of which was torched by the rioters last night.
These little monsters are destroying people's livelihood. There is nothing that quite manifests a heartfelt cry for justice like a mob looting major retailers and making off with TVs, top-brand athletic shoes, and portable appliances and household goods. (sarc)
