Minneapolis is Burning...?

He’s been charged with 3rd degree murder and with manslaughter. More charges may be filed later. The other three police are still under investigation.

County Attorney Freeman seemed pissed he didn’t get an attaboy for (according to him) filing charges so fast.

That is weird. Why was he carrying an umbrella?

Ha! If you think this place is a “far left echo chamber” then you have no idea what the far or even middling left is like.

I’m careful about rushing to judgment based on a viral video. That guy could have been anyone from an anarchist, to a college dropout-turned- shit disturber, to a member of the Republican party trying to start a Reichstag Fire, to a white nationalist trying to start a race war. Could have been someone just bored and wanting some attention. No way to know at this point.

It’s a similar mask but not the same. The state trooper masks has one black filter cartridge, the man who broke the window has two pink filter cartridges.

To give himself additional shield from public view? This guy may or may not be political - could be just a pot-smoking dropout from the burbs.

It’s a tactic used by the Hong Kong protesters. It helps to deter facial recognition. Though with the mask, I’m not sure facial recognition would work, anyway.

Just a couple of points: The Attorney General of Minnesota is Keith Ellison, former Congressman. He is also a Muslim. I don’t think he’s going to be sweeping anything under the rug.

Another point is that Target is a major figure in Minnesota. Not just as an employer, but it’s a political figure, as well. They have, in the past, given contributions to right wing politicians (including one who was running against Mark Dayton, scion of the founding family of Target), but they have backed off on that funding in recent years.

For many shitheads, the term “far left” means “Anyone who does not call Dear Leader Trump the greatest, or scream SOCIALISM with spittle flying out of their mouths”

More relentless than a speeding bullet. More old school than a locomotive. Look, stuck in traffic… :wink:

I’m glad you and your business is safe and hope that remains so.

Cite a single post that condones looting.

Alsothat Target specifically is involved with testing and setting up police surveillance technology and such.

For those of you whinging about the destruction of property etc during a riot, please read this:
Jim Wright >Stonekettle Station

They were co-workers??? That guy smashing the AutoZone windows???

This whole this is getting fishier than a Sushi Bar.

Can you use your words to explain what you mean? Because your page says:
“This page isn’t available
The link you followed may be broken, or the page may have been removed.”

Where are you getting this?

The link took me to a Facebook page, but I have no idea what slumtrimpet thought should be read on the page. Plus, if I understand Facebook correctly, what is displayed on a page like that changes depending on who is viewing it and how Facebook’s algo interprets their habits/likes/etc.

So, yeah: could you just quote the part you think we should read, please?

Probably this guy Jim Wright and/or this post?

FWIW, plugging the exact phrase “Jim Wright >Stonekettle Station” into Google returned this.

No, no, no.
George Floyd and Deric Chauvin had been co-workers (bouncers) at a local restaurant for many years. Nothing to do with the guy smashing windows.

This is the part that really hits it: “Let’s be real goddamn clear about this: The racist murdering cop would STILL BE ON THE FORCE RIGHT NOW, if people hadn’t taken to the streets and burned the fucking city down.”
