They are a private police force in service to the Trump regime & his minions. Fear and compliance in advance and by design.
It has nothing to do with betterment of anything, anything at all. Trump wants to stay in power. Nothing more. He is an interest of one, and only one. The rest are complicit.

Aaron, you are one of my heroes. I was born and raised in Crystal, MN, now an inner ring suburb, but Iโ€™m a Minnesotan by birth & in my bones.

More hopeful than Iโ€™ve been in awhile, simply thinking we are reaching a breaking point.
Republicans need to once again put country over party. One can hope, perhaps.

And only now heโ€™s worried about young children?

Sadly it seems this is more normal than not over our countryโ€™s history. ๐Ÿ˜ข

Yeah, these folks simply need to f*ck all the way off.
Donโ€™t mess with Minneapolis, or even Minnesota. How many norms will they continue to crash through? Oh, and Jake Lang was arrested. Just sayin.

If God is great, they are not good. If God is good they are not great. Just sayin.
I firmly and forever believeโ€™Waiting on Godโ€™ is really, totally, and indeed forever, wasted time.

I was perhaps 10 years old when I marched from the state capitol in St Paul Minnesota to the University in opposition

Please, it is murder, not โ€˜killingโ€™. Please step up. Ten shots, in his back, while he was restrained by so many โ€˜Call of Dutyโ€™ assholes, and you suggest they are deserving of some forgiveness with framing this as anything other than an assassination? Fuck all the way off, and perhaps wake up.

Alex was disarmed, restrained by perhaps six men, and shot 10 times, in his back. Arrest and convict, please oh please. The fact that this is even a question is a basis for fundamental concern.

Yep, this is the power we possess. Onward.

What is the dictionary definition of โ€˜lawlessnessโ€™ I wonder?

I can barely look at this. It brings me to tears. My son is a 37 yr old ICU nurse. Just sayin.
Fuck these entitled assholes.

Why is it not repeated and reported that Alex Pretti was shot 10 times, 10, in the back, while unarmed? โ€˜Are you OKโ€™ were his last words.
