A Minneapolis rally to support Trayvon Martin in the not guilty verdict of George Zimmerman is slated for Monday night with help from a group that supports Uptown shooting victim Terrance Franklin.

MN Neighborhoods Organizing for Change calls it the #HoodiesUp for Trayvon Rally which is set to begin at 6 p.m. at the Hennepin County Government Center in downtown Minneapolis. The Justice 4 Terrance Franklin Committee is also helping organize the event, among others.

SNIP

Terrance Franklin, 22, was fatally shot by Minneapolis police in Uptown on May 10 after allegedly shooting two cops.

According to the Minneapolis Police Department, officers struggled with Franklin in the basement of a home he had broken into at 27th and Bryant Avenue South after he fled police in a car and then on foot.

Because from the day they are born this is the horse dung they are taught.

Even worse a lot of young whites are emulating them, because that’s what it takes to get laid by so many white girls.

The Black culture is totally fugged up and they are destroying our culture.

The Justice 4 Terrance Franklin Committee...

TF breaks into someone’s basement. Tries to shoot some cops while he’s in there, and he’s shot dead. Yet, he is somehow portrayed as the poor black victim.


so true

That’s why i loved MOM taking on the media, and hope he exposes a lot more during the suit against NBC.

Agree. In a fight, they can take you down with a sharp tug.

he reached for an officer’s MP5 machine pistol and squeezed the trigger as the officer held the gun

Is the MP5 the standard sidearm now? Maybe it should have been safed. Who knows.

Creative journalism. I’m sure it had a collapsing stock. But yes, they keep one in the trunk of the squad at all times.

Combining a rally for Traytable with a rally for a wannabe cop killer sounds appropriate.

Early evening temps in MN are supposed to be in the 80s. Not quite the heat wave like here in Jersey, but pretty darn hot to be wearing hoodies!

Currently 88 degress with a 64 degree dewpoint. I’m sure some bleeding-heart organization will be providing tons of free bottled water...

I lost all respect for Kare11 when they had his family on belly aching about BS. They were all whipped up by their community organizer.

Hoodies are used to hide one’s identity while they commit crimes.

At one time, the hood had a legitimate use. Now it is used as a tool for anonymity by the FUY’s (feral urban youths)

These people are still pushing the delusion that Trayvon Martin was shot for wearing a hoody.

They are so wrong!

TM was shot for “singing in the rain”, just singing in the rain?

how many of these ‘hoodies’ have jobs and work for a living, how many contribute to the taxes the Federal Government requires?

I think they are all obama munchers..

and all this is doing is taking obama out of the news as he continues his crimes...wake up Americans
