Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him.

The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/

We are not the first people, or the first country, to suffer under a tyrannical government that does not respect our lives, or our rights.

There is a method for how to effectively resist, and eventually topple, such a regime. We can learn from others who came before us.

This is my favorite guide.

McSweeney's Labour are much, much more comfortable with some neonazi loyal to Farage in Parliament than with anyone even slightly associated with the left.

After all, they destroyed their own campaign in Clacton in order to let Farage win.

Watch the video. You can clearly see the man is not holding a gun in his hand, he's holding his phone and videotaping ICE agents. Another video shows him on the ground getting punched, multiple agents are on him. One agent retrieved a gun and runs off. Then you hear gun shots! They killed him.

Already, narrative is that the murder victim was brandishing a gun. Sure looks like a cell phone to me.

All it needs is the players to say no to attending any of the USA games. FIFA can huff and puff all they like but without players they don't have a world cup.

I do believe it was reported many people are asking for refunds of their tickets for games here in the US and others are deciding not to purchase any. Like you said, It's nothing but madness what were living through. Why visit a place like that.

It's not safe here. We're not safe here. Do not come here. Matter of fact and principle, boycott the fuck out of us in every way. It's Trumps greed of money and power that's strangling us. Let us fail, cast us out. The poor of us, we know how to survive. Do it. Please?

Donald Trump really hasn't thought this though. The consequenses for him and his family WILL BE DIRE.

As they will for the WHOLE of his administration. They thought they would be protected. Fuck that.
