I find it hilarious that the state denied them funding.


Any outside agency head and that includes the National Guard, that sends officers to this goatrope should be immediately fired for incompetence.

So when the riots start all over America the white house will have to remain silent?
Put Joe Chi Minh in front of America taking questions in real time?...not likely.

On the other hand riots probably won't get any coverage on blue state run TV anyway.

I'm fairly positive that agencies statewide will be sending officers and the NG will be activated and on site at the order of Tyrant Timmy Walz, but the denial of funding puts the responsibility on Hennepin County and Minneapolis to pay for it, rather than all the taxpayers of the state.

You guys are crazy.   Nothing will happen during or after the trial, even if he gets exonerated.   BLM and Antifa will hold a peaceful rally where they hold hands and sings hymns and quietly remind us how great America is that the justice system works.

There have also been BLM protests at the mall in the past. Some local Bloomington high school idiots and some brought in on the light rail trains.

When you get into town, identify 24th Ave (east side of the mall). Heading south on that road it turns into Old Shakopee Rd and turns west. That's you best egress route that doesn't involve freeways.
If you get in a pickle, IM me and I'll guide you in to a "safe" neighborhood with some like minded neighbors.

Based on what I've seen, the cops are guilty of not recognizing the type of distress Floyd was having. Their actions didn't contribute to his death, and I'm not sure they could have prevented it.

The trial will be interesting watching what gets presented and if the verdict appears to be based on politics or the trial evidence.

I forgot about those protests. So, if the weather is too cold or stormy, the protests could move indoors to MOA.

The Chauvin murder trial begins March 8th but here locally, plans are being made by both local government and activists in the weeks leading up to it. Tensions will be extremely high in and around downtown Minneapolis in the days leading up to the trial and during the trial itself.

Chauvin has been massively overcharged by our Antifa sympathizing state Attorney General Keith Ellison. The charges Chauvin is being tried for are 2nd degree murder and 2nd degree manslaughter. Originally, Chauvin was charged with 3rd degree murder and 2nd degree manslaughter by the Hennepin Country Attorney but Ellison took over the case and upgraded the murder charge to 2nd degree, ostensibly for a higher penalty. Recently, prosecution attorneys under Ellison tried to have the 3rd degree murder charge reinstated but a judge denied their request, leaving questions as to whether Ellison can prove his 2nd degree murder case.

https://www.kare11.com/article/news/local/minnesota-court-of-appeals-to-hear-3rd-degree-murder-appeal-derek-chauvin/89-b995abca-0761-4fb2-9088-02ebcb9c251b

The Hennepin County Government Center is preparing fences, razor wire and plywood in an effort to ward off attacks on the Center. Activists are extremely angry because they apparently think 1st Amendment rights extend to trashing buildings (no surprise). The County and City are also preparing "1st Amendment zones" on two sides of the building where activists can vent their frustrations.

Quote from an activist from the below article:
"We are not here to prohibit justice from happening," Myers said. "We are not here to hinder justice we are here to deliver justice."

The state of Minnesota, which is the only state in the nation with a divided legislature, denied a bill to provide money for added security during the trial, leaving the costs to Hennepin County and the City of Minneapolis. The state House is Democrat but the state Senate is Republican by a slim margin and the Senate denied the bill that would provide $35 million in funds for security.

https://www.fox9.com/news/minn-lawmakers-hit-roadblock-chauvin-trial-security-funding-in-question

Police officers and National Guard from all over the state will be converging on Minneapolis in the days leading up to the trial.

https://www.fox9.com/news/officials-announce-operation-safety-net-for-chauvin-trial-were-not-going-to-tolerate-disorder

TL/DR: Chauvin trial begins soon. Activists are riling themselves up. Chauvin was likely overcharged. State is not providing funds for security. What's left of Minneapolis is fucked, regardless of the trial outcome.

That's about where I'm at too.

Anything within the zone comprising Minneapolis, St Paul and the first ring or two of suburbs will be under threat of attack at anytime from anywhere.

All the burning and looting will be spined by the MSM into "Activists exercising free speech, which justifies the means of burning/looting/violence"

The left will unfortunately.  They live such empty lives with no real productive meaning, no direction, no motivation.  Their only motivation is to steal from those who create, destroy what they cannot steal, and make everyone else lives as miserable as their own under the guise of "social justice."

Not sure that you could even get 3rd degree murder to stick. Cops can't just allow someone high on drugs to go around hurting other people.

I don't know. With Biden in charge, they can't afford to make the party look weak so I think they're going to minimize coverage as much as possible.

The jury will buy their safety by finding him guilty of manslaughter.  Of course the mob will be pissed he didn’t get convicted of murder, but he’ll get ten years and that should prevent the jury and their family from being hunted the rest of their lives.
