I have spent my entire adult life being lectured by Republican politicians and conservative legal movement types about how important it is to preserve the sacred constitutional right to self-defense of *specifically this person* and then secret police murdered him in the street
Minneapolis police chief Brian O'Hara says that the victim was a 37-year-old white man and US citizen with no criminal record and that he was a legally permitted gun owner.

can we just quickly clear up an often repeated idea that Minneapolis is a “small city of 500k” or the “47th largest city in the US”?
it is directly connected to st. paul, a city of 400,000. with the suburbs, the metro area is over 3.5 million people.
your city won’t be safer because it is bigger.

Also just the entire idea that you can reduce the systematic disappearing of your non-white neighbors by a bunch of lawless masked federal paramilitaries armed to the teeth to bait is so insulting to its core. We are standing up against and bearing witness to an ethnic cleansing.

So, among the the things I got to help with in law school at UMN was putting together questions for a Minneapolis Mayoral Candidate forum in 2017. We made sure to have a question about sanctuary cities, and guess what Jacob Frey said?

It's worth reminding each other every couple days that every delay you create, every horrible opportunity you deter means someone gets home to their family, might even mean someones actual life is saved. All of it is worth it.

ICE totaled this car, abducted a woman, and then left it in the middle of Snelling Avenue, one of the busiest streets in the Twin Cities.
This isn’t law and order, this state sanctioned terrorism. It’s fucking disgusting.
