Minneapolis Police are adding patrols to the northside to prevent looting.

Broadway Liquor Outlet lost thousands of dollars in inventory because of looters right after the storm hit Sunday. Police say they've had a few reports of looting at homes and businesses.

A county cop rolls through my town maybe once a week.

Hardly any reports of looting in the horrible AL and MI massive tornadoes, and the same for the one in Joplin, MO. Having such low down scum that would steal from storm victims is a blot on the reputation of Minneapolis. Looters should be shot.

“Looters should be shot.”

Well, not in the sanctuary city that is Minneapolis (and St.Paul)...

However....

We have a different set of rules, south of the river.....

I wonder if certain local am radio hosts still oppose “Castle Doctrine” in light of daylight looters?

Wow. The Minneapolis PD is right on top of things. The tornado was Sunday and it only took until Thursday for them to actually show up to prevent looting.

Good show, Minneapolis PD. Good show.

Nothing left to steal. Makes the PD’s job easy.

Will they be patrolling heavily in the Amish, Mennonite and Hasidic neighborhoods?

I have relatives scattered in MN. Twenty years ago they were all atwitter about the new immigrants (Africans, Hmong, Mexicans) and how they just LOVED the diversification of their formerly traditional American communities. LU-U-UVED it! They don’t talk about loving it anymore—sore subject. People who refuse to assimilate must emigrate, otherwise a nation loses its identity.
