They have announced to the world that blacks should come there and commit whatever crimes they like. Of course most blacks aren’t interested, but the ones who are ... oh boy!

Good grief, the patronizing insanity of white liberals is unbelievable.

As obnoxious as “Welcome refugees” signs of a few years back. It will end the same way.

Not doing drugs and not committing crimes are just too difficult for them.

"vowed to avoid the police to protect people of color"?

Aren't these people stereotyping people of color? "People of color" aren't all alike. Like humans everywhere, some are great humans and great neighbors...and some are scumbags and criminals.

“Rape, rape, police!”

“Oh... I’m sorry, it was dark when you attacked me. Now that I see that you’re black... this one is on the house. Please don’t come back or I’ll have to call the Muslim Community Patrol.”

To paraphrase progressive Dierdre Wilson, who spoke to homeowners in the aftermath of the Oakland Firestorm in 1991: “Experience the guilt, but call the police.”

This is an awesome article. Oh the stupidity. I laughed, I cried. At the end, I found small comfort in the fact that: of all the people you meet in your life, half will be below average.

I’m old enough to remember when committing crimes was against the law

Truth Anecdote:

Man and his mother at a tattoo parlor (lucky 13, richmond). Man gets tattoo. They leave, to go to an ATM (not sure why). They come back in, man is irate. He yells at the first tattoo artist (unfortunately, video’s audio is impossible to hear). He goes behind the country, and walks toward the office space; he is stopped. They talk him down, but at some point he pulls out a gun; the store owner also has a gun. Nobody is shot, no gun is pointed , just held.

At this, clients all scatter and run out of the store. Man is talked down, goes and sits, a black possibly female employee talks to him for a while, it all looks good, but mom starts yelling and gesturing, stirring things up. Man puts gun on table, it looks like.

Cops arrive. They do nothing. Man has put gun back in waistband. Cops take positions around store, still 5 feet or more from man, clearly trying to diffuse situation. Head cop goes off to talk to store owner.

Man pulls out his gun and hides behind his mother. Head cop sees this, pulls his gun, walks quickly over (not running), and tells man to put gun down (we hear him say this is what he did in a different video).

Man eventually puts down gun. 2 more cops arrive, and they move closer. Mother is asked for ID, gives it. Police then move in and ask man to the ground, he complies, and is cuffed and taken outside.

Mother releases video from outside. She talks over part of it, maybe a prayer in a foreign language, that her son might have also been saying, or else she is talking over his conversation with police. Everybody is calm, no excessive force.

Police explain man is going downtown, for brandishing his weapon when police were on scene. He and mom argue the store brandished, police say they will talk to the store owner later about that, but that the brandishing they are arresting him for was during their time, when he pulled a gun while the cops were there.

Note: Armed black man, call to police, pulls weapon while police present — only one officer even pulls out his gun, and he does not point it, and the man is not shot, or even physically assaulted. Contrary to the regular story told.

Woke SJW want to cancel the tattoo parlor for calling police on armed belligerant man, because the man was black, and the police might kill him. Police were never going to kill him, unless he pointed his gun at them, and the SJWs would no doubt say that if he shot a cop, it was because he was threatened.

Anyway, that’s reality today. Try to keep your employees and customers safe by calling cops when you cannot talk talk an angry black man holding a gun in his hand, and YOU are the bad person.

Minneapolis is my hometown. I hate to see what has become of it, and the people in this article is how so many in Minneapolis actually think (or fail to think). It is their bleeding-heart liberalism that has brought creatures like Mayor Cry-baby Frey into office. I remember the first black mayor, Sharon Sayles-Belton whose primary focus was ridding the city of the plague of white cops. It was during her tenure that Minneapolis became known as Murderapolis as gangs and killings spread throughout the city. Many of the people I knew continued to gush about how excited they were that Minneapolis had a black female mayor, even when she showed herself to be corrupt and incompetent.

They aren’t really serious about racial justice until they sell everything they own and give the proceeds to the first black person they meet. Then move to an African nation and live under rule by black people as a laborer for at least 25 years. Then they will be pure. Tweets won’t cut it.
