Here's two NAR Christian Supremacists from the NW. Aaron Winter is a Vineyard pastor in Federal Way and often does things in Portland. Chris Behnke is a weird, spiritual/business coach I guess you could call it associated with Eagle Mountain Church in Bend and does work with Her Voice Movement.

In 2016 MN Police killed a Black man named Philando Castile despite him disclosing he had a legal firearm.
Yesterday MN Police released a white woman named Jenny Boelter despite her car full of cash, firearms, & passports hours after her husband mass murdered people & was on the run from police.

We owe it to our children to mitigate airborne infections and to vaccinate them effectively.
Western countries abandoning kids due to lower PERCEIVED risk and a drive for normalcy is wholly irresponsible.

The accused assassin allegedly used data brokers to track down the Democratic lawmakers he murdered. Congress doesn't need any more proof that selling data to anyone with a credit card is deadly. Every American's safety is at risk until Congress cracks down on data brokers.
The man accused of shooting two Minnesota Dems allegedly found their addresses online. That has prompted some lawmakers to call for tighter oversight on how personal info is shared online.

Seeing a lot of confusion in the comments about why he’s only charged with 2nd degree murder. To clarify, in MN, prosecutors can charge up to 2nd degree right away, then have to ask for grand jury approval to charge 1st degree. That is a separate step that will definitely happen.

Plus someone’s trail cam spotted him.
Local coverage keeps emphasizing that Boelter was hiding in a cornfield but the corn is still pretty low this time of year in Minnesota so that made him easier to spot.

the mayor sure is keeping a low profile these days. Maybe he’ll wait until enough people get upset and then scold everyone for getting upset.
It’s been 28 hours since the assassin was photographed in Minneapolis. It’s been 24 hours since a Bearcat punched into a N Mpls house connected to this man.
Nothing from the mayor in 22 hours. Nothing from the Chief, or Public Safety Commissioner.
