A Minneapolis manufacturing company has decided to leave the city, with the company’s owner saying he can’t trust public officials who allowed his plant to burn during the recent riots. The move will cost the city about 50 jobs.

“They don’t care about my business,” said Kris Wyrobek, president and owner of 7-Sigma Inc., which has operated since 1987 at 2843 26th Av. in south Minneapolis. “They didn’t protect our people. We were all on our own.”

It will get worse when there are no real cops.

Who will take the place of the police?
Social workers LOL LOL!!! Where will those Social Workers come from?

How about Black Panthers and Muslims empowered by Sharia Law and our constitution abandoned in garbage cans across Minneapolistan and then Minnesotastan!

They will introduce Sharia law as the law of Minneapolistan and later of Minnesotastan!

Sharia Police. The Muslim sectors are ready for this. The city council will fund them as “Community Mental Health” organizations. (thanks to flamberge for this insight!)

Black Panthers have worked so well in the past in Oakland and _________________.

Minneapolistan citizens, choose from:

1) Pay the dhimmi and you will be protected by the Sharia Patrols or Black Panthers.
2) Special 80% off deal if you convert
3) Lifetime supply of Bricks, free deliver

The first of many to leave.

Minneapolis has been ASKING for it!!!! After they abolish the police, the movement of businesses and jobs will be an unstoppable flood!!!!

And that city will end up worst than Detroit at its low point!!!!

So much for enterprise zones in Minneapolis. We would be better off spending the money to relocate hard working, God fearing blacks to another town where they could have a decent life and decent educations for their kids.

The next Detroit

It's been turning into that for quite some time. Detroit stands as a sad real-life example of what WILL happen as a result of unrest and incompetent leaders. But nobody seems to get the lesson.

Thank you sir.
In my ideal world every single worthwhile business will hightail it the heck out of Minneapolis ASAP.
Even with the police in businesses they couldn’t get protection. They defund the police and forget it. You might as well have a business in Mogadishu.

This is just the beginning as the police department is de-funded and de-fanged.

If I still had family there, I’d tell them to get out now. The crime rate is going to go through the roof...

(as it did in Baltimore after it was de-policed).

Which will make absolutely no difference.
They don’t work for the NFL.

That ought to go over "good" with the gay population - which I understand is large in Minneapolis.

I’ll have to politely disagree.

Yes, let the exodus begin ... as long as they can prove that they DIDN’T do any of the following: vote for Omar, vote for the current Mayor, vote for any on the city council that wants to defund the police(which I don’t think they’ll have to worry about as so many will start to leave), vote the Governor, vote for Klobuchar. Let them reap what they’ve sown.

If they did any of the following and move, they just bring those same ideologies with them to the next place and ruin it. Locusts....that’s all they are.

And then they should have to prove that they SUPPORT: low taxes, less government, and support the 2nd Amendment ... we can work on some of the other things later, like military involvements, IRS, etc etc etc

The area where the business is located is also home to a big homeless camp. It seems to me they were going to relocate them last year but I doubt they did.

The company will have a much better employee base if they move to the American part of the state. I am glad to see them escape occupied territory.

Personally..I wouldn't have said a thing to anyone in the media about leaving...

Just give my employee's...the heads up.
