Minneapolis Is Less Than A Month From Voting To Abolish Traditional Policing

Minneapolis’ future rides on a charter amendment that the city will vote on come November 2nd. This Amendment would do away with existing law enforcement and replace it with a new (yet to be full defined) system of a whole lot more social workers and a lot fewer “peace officers.” Here

Things in Minneapolis have gotten so bad this year that long time peace activist, K.G. Wilson has turning his back on the community he has tried to serve for nearly 20 years. The final straw for Wilson, the murder of his six-year-old granddaughter and the unwillingness of anyone from the neighborhood to cooperate with police in their effort to track down the killer(s). Here

Meanwhile, in St. Paul last night (the twin city to Minneapolis) things got out of hand at a local tavern.

At 12:15 a.m. at the Seventh Street Truck Park bar, police found a “chaotic scene” with 15 people with gunshot wounds. After securing the area, officers worked with good Samaritans to aid the wounded before St. Paul fire medics were able to enter the scene safely, according to police. 

“There were gunshot wound victims lying in the street outside the bar,” Steve Linders, public information officer for the St. Paul Police Department, said. “There were gunshot wound victims lying on the sidewalk outside the bar. There were gunshot wound victims lying on the floor inside the bar.”

  1. “911. What’s your emergency?”

    “Three men armed with shotguns are kicking in my front door!”

    “Sir, shelter in place. We are dispatching a counselor. She should arrive within an hour.”

  2. Just wait until their property insurance bills come in, if the policies aren’t canceled altogether.

    Maybe that cow from the fire department will go rushing in when there aren’t any armed police to secure the scene first.

  3. Liberals destroy EVERYTHING they touch.

    Sadly, their supporters are TOO STUPID to see the destruction.

    It’s really difficult to point the right direction to someone that is blind.

  4. Bless their heart.

    Nobody, and I mean nobody, literally nobody who would even consider voting for this is deserving of even a modicum of respect. I sincerely mean this, anyone who votes for this deserves every damn bit of suffering they realize as a result.

  5. I notice something going on not many are talking about. Geographical lines are starting to form based on whether your a Conservative or a Communist. Locally, here in Communist occupied Cali, they’ve done studies on exactly who is participating in the mass exodus. They’re all conservatives. So you Texicans can chill. Conservatives will relocate out of Minneapolis to red states. By the time 2024 rolls around we will be a very segregated nation based on political beliefs. Now all we have to do is figure out how to keep our federal tax dollars used to support people like Gavin “Dumb Fuck” Newsom. Who’s signing very important legislation this week. Like outlawing gas powered lawn and garden tools. And demanding a Gender Neutral isle in all toy stores. Fuck me what an idiot.

  6. Brad, when the wind stops blowing how long is your electric generator going to keep your meat cold? Electric generators are one of the most retarded things for emergency use and numbnuts is going to make that your only option.

  7. No one has asked the most important questions about this fracas: Did the bar enforce social distancing and masking orders, and what is the vaccination status of those present?

    All the victims were outside the bar, so the shooter(s) had the courtesy to gun down their targets where they weren’t required to wear their mask. It probably made it easier to identify the “mutual combatants” in the crowd before opening fire. – Dr. Tar

  8. My bet – the people will overwhelmingly vote it down. Well not 90/10, but 60-70% to keep the police.
    And then the city council will (illegally) overrule. Because they know better than us.

    You’re kinda freaking me out with your interest in mu meat. LOL. But you bring up an excellent point. PG&E was “Mandated”, I’m really starting to hat that word, to invest into green energy. Wind mills, solar, and whatnot. By the PUC. Who sits on the PUC. Libtard politicians. They had PG&E spending so much money on this shit they couldn’t maintain aging power lines/power distribution. And those same Libtards now want to criminally charge PG&E management for wrongful death. It’s fucking amazing. Just now, PG&E is pissed and fighting back. Having said all that, I’m no fan of PG&E.

  10. I’m sorry. Maybe it’s just me.
    But I feel like there is a full court press on against me under Obama Biden.

    The marxists feel empowered. The vaccine mandates. The mask directives. The criminalization of parents who wish to be heard at school board meetings, labeling those who stand up to marxist racist training as domestic terrorists. Ignore the obvious skyrocketing prices at the pump and the meat counter.

    Sit down. Shut up. Do what you’re told.

    I got a belly full of go fuck yourselves.

  11. Brad, 14,894,912 automobiles in cali. 40kW to charge a car. 595,796,480 kW just to charge cars. That’s equivalent to just under 50,000 wind turbines. No single wind turbine ever in the history of wind turbines has ever generated more power than it took to build and install a wind turbine. They have a lifecycle and several dozen will need to be town down replaced every single day, the blades are not recyclable and need to be landfilled. This is just for cars. Now add on all the garden tools, electric generators, houses, trains, buildings, etc. Where is the state going to put them all? I’m guessing every square mile off the coast is going to be littered with them. Hey, at least it’ll keep someone employed lol. fucking nuts. Plus it actually takes power to start a turbine spinning. If the power is out, they don’t start. Worst invention ever.

    I’m always concerned about meat, it needs to stay cold.

    You’re exactly right on the electric car bull shit. Can’t be done. Study after study has been thrown in these morons face at the state level. They don’t care. After all, they prefer us stationary.

    “they prefer us stationary”
    They want a good share dead, so that is pretty stationary.
    If you live in the new Royalty Zones, you will always have power. If your an outlander, maybe, when we feel like it, if you behave.

    There’s already Afgan refugees checking at wall mart, can’t speak english.

    At least the Vikings beat the Lions by two points. The Lions are now 0-5 on the season, so the Viking’s win is nothing for Minnesota to brag about.

    Minnesota, formerly the land of strong Scandinavian miners, farmers, and lumbermen, is now the sorriest state in the union. But it it being challenged by NY and California.

    It’s all been going downhill since Ted Fucking Kennedy got his immigration bill passed in 1965.

  15. Since Caesar’s day, at least, politicians don’t listen carefully to what their “constituents” are saying.

    Lots of Romans did not want a King or Emperor. They wanted to retain the Roman Republic. The result: Caesar suffered 22 stab wounds on the steps of the Senate on 3/15/44 BC.

    The Roman Empire happened anyway. The lesson for us is not just to rid ourselves the top leader, but to rid ourselves of an entire cultural and political attitude as promoted by liberals. Only Civil War has a chance of doing that.

  16. Yes on the electric car BS in Calif. I was just on a Monterey county project to install car chargers in a 50+ y.o. wood building. existing 100 amp panel with ancient aluminum wires. Each 220 volt car charger needs a 50 amp service. And that sucker draws 40 amps ALL night. for each car. PG&E now has to replace the aging pole transformer, run new wires, and a new 250 amp panel. What a joke. What insane expense, just to make a massive fire hazard.

  17. I am going to refrain from expressing the differences between your, you’re….. perhaps people should not utilize conjunctions…
    And you’s mamerjamers better git wit da program..

  18. I still go back to a statement I made years ago when the Hildabeast was threatening to bankrupt the coal industry: If there is energy in the ground, somebody is going to dig it up and use it! If its in OUR ground it might as well be US!
    What that means is the Communists are trying to get us weaned off of fossil fuels, not because they care about pollution (God know they’re the worst polluters on the planet), but because they want to weaken America any way possible and want OUR energy for themselves!
