Minnesota proud.
Abolish and prosecute ICE.

it’s fun to remind the youth of today who were too young to remember it unfolding in real time about how the minute Obama became a viable presidential contender, the brains of every individual on the entire American right simply turned into scrambled eggs and they have never even partially recovered

Before speaking with two armed men at the Pretti vigil last night, a man approached & asked if I was going to tell the truth. I said yes. He told me how frustrated he was at the media & the harm it’s causing to his community.
I asked if he wanted to share words for the media on camera, & he did:

Republican politicians who think that Minneapolis is a political problem are missing the point. It is a moral problem. But they are in so deep that they cannot see just how morally bankrupt they have become. They do not understand that we are as revulsed by their complicity as by Trump's cruelty.

It’s -2000 degrees below zero. You just flashbanged yourself twenty feet from the front desk. Three hours sleep cause locals who hate you bang garbage cans outside your room all night. The Home2Suits has fallen and you’re not getting that signing bonus for another 4.5 years. Ass. It’s all ass, dude.
Minneapolis, MN -
Very developing situation here. FPS agents ran into the hotel. Tear gas deployed. Hotel patrons forced to put their hands up. One agent’s nose bloodied.

Let’s have more straight talk.

What a relief that they’re calling for a general de-escalation of tensions, since it’s hard to tell who’s at fault, the people murdering people or the people who aren’t doing the murdering.

Klobuchar: "Somehow 50,000 peaceful protesters in 10 below weather were able to march without any problems, and then the next day half a dozen ICE and CBP agents couldn't handle a guy with a cell phone taking video of them and shot him. I think it's pretty obvious what's going on here."

For some reason today, seeing Alex Pretti beaten, disarmed, then executed, I remembered how calmly cops took Dylann Roof and then went out and got him Burger King.

By the way, Nazi Bovino, if Mayor Frey and Gov Walz wanted to say ICE are assholes who never got hugged, they have a goddamn FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHT to say it and you still don’t have any right to shoot and kill people who support those leaders. Fuck off. Fuck all the way off. Fuck off forever.

ICE is distinguishable by their rotundity, their stature, their slobby half-civilian uniforms, their visible lack of physical conditioning, and their total lack of training.
Border Patrol is distinguishable because they’re always equipped like they’re about to ship out for Fallujah.
