I pray that your optimism is warranted, regarding how this will backfire on the left. Hope it gives POTUS a little ‘68 Nixon boost from the silent majority. These modern day blackshirts make me sick.

Because some people just want to watch the world burn.

And some of us who live here in the twin cities need to know what is happening where so we can stay out of harm’s way, and off highways that are blocked.

My son and his family are near the 3rd precinct, and I am in one of the ‘burbs that the protesters have threatened next.

We are sick about what is happening and hear that the authorities are turning off the scanners, leaving us in the dark. We need to know what is going on, so we can assess our individual risks.

Not knowing just increases our anxiety.

F the Minneapolis Democrats. That's what most of the rest of Minnesota says too.

They’re trying to achieve critical mass.

Reminds me of high school: “How many points for a protester?”

I do heartily advise you to relocate as soon as you can. I know that’s easier said than done, but I assure you, I am following my own advice. I have lived in Los Angeles for 16 years. In three weeks, I am packing up and pulling out. I might even do it sooner if things keep heating up. Living among liberals has finally become just too nerve-wracking for me.

I so wish I could. I am pushing 80, and need to be near my Son and Daughter in law. I am in senior living, “reduced” circumstances, and depend on them for transportation to medical appointments, etc.

They are both employed here, and can’t pick up and move.

I admire you for doing it, and I am going to spend a lot of time thinking about how to get the heck out of here. Minnesota is being ruined by these brain-dead liberals.

Oh, I am sorry to hear that. I’m lucky; my parents are very conservative and live in a remote area, so being near family means moving away from the Blue Rubble Zones.

Whaddya think would happen if they threatened to loot the Art Institute, or burn the Guthrie? Imagine a riot at say, Lake Minnetonka...the mayor would be calling in air strikes on the protesters.

Burning down a Target, AutoZone, and Cub Foods, meh, they’ll just get new stores by the end of the year. Worst thing so far is threatening the bistros in Uptown that the hipsters like, that won’t be allowed to go on. Let ‘em burn da hood...

Aren’t they supposed to be “sheltering in place?”

I guess every city is now open for business!

There are sympathizers with rioters here on Free Republic???

Of course there are. But if these protesters burn down a Planned Parenthood I won't shed a tear.
