Minneapolis police tell residents to obey criminals and ‘be prepared’ to be robbed

The Minneapolis Police Department (MPD) told residents they should “be prepared” to hand over their phones, wallets, and purses to robbers.

The MPD has reported a 46 percent increase in carjackings and a 36 percent increase in robberies compared to this same time last year, according to WCCO.

Police in the city’s Third Precinct alone have received more than 100 reports of robberies and 20 reports of carjackings in just the last month.

Officials are now telling residents to be ready and willing to comply with the demands of criminals in an email sent to Third Precinct residents.

“Be prepared to give up your cell phone and purse/wallet,” the police said in their email, a copy of which was obtained by Alpha News. The email said citizens should listen to criminals and “do as they say.”

The message warned that “some victims have been maced, dragged, assaulted, and some threatened with a gun.”

Minneapolis Police Chief Medaria Arradondo said his department has “redeployed internal resources and intelligence gathering” to combat what he calls an “uptick” in crime, Bring Me The News reported.

Despite this, innocent people have been affected by the recent rash of crime. After several men tried to rob a woman in broad daylight, police said a Good Samaritan rushed to intervene and was shot in the process.

A 99-year-old woman was also assaulted in her home by a man who broke in and wrapped her head in a blanket. Despite her age and the directions to comply with the criminal’s demands, Evelyn Johnson boldly warded off her attacker.

“He thought he was just going to cover my mouth and smother me, but that didn’t happen. I fought him. We wrestled for quite a while, according to all my bruises,” she told KTSP.

They need to hire more social justice warriors to de-escalate these situation. Maybe a special line Dial 811 and someone will give those robbers a stern talking too.

How much of this could be the police giving notice to the mayor and city council that they aren't going to take this defunding crap lying down.

Telling the citizens to be prepared to be robbed is telling them that their city government needs new leadership....

Attention Mogadishu/Minneapolistan citizens on the Mississippi!

your new BLM police force is here to help you. Don't call 911, we will find you!

City Councils across America have voted unanimously to approve a resolution intended to abolish the existing police force and replace it with something else.

At least as safe as Mogadishu.

What exactly that is hasn’t been spelled out yet.

Can anyone spell “Sharia”, Sharia Islamic law, or redundantly Sharia law is a religious law forming part of the Islamic tradition. It is derived from the religious precepts of Islam. Christians, Jews and atheists might consider leaving ASAP!!

Attention citizens of: MinneapoliStan, Chazistan, San FranciscoStan, SeattleStan, LAStan, NYCStan, and ChicagoStan!

Your new BLM/Sharia/Antifa non police force is here to help you!

Don't call 911!

We will find you!

Have your weekly public safety donation, in cash or Bitcoin, handy in a sealed brown paper lunch bag!

Thank you!

ma'a as-salaama!!!

Remember, don't call us, we will find you when we want to.

Below are pics of some of Obama’s Civilian National Security Force, aka your new

BLM/Sharia/Antifa non police force!

At least as safe as Mogadishu on the Mississippi!

Vote for Mogadishu, get Mogadishu on the Mississippi!

Thanks to DCBryan1 for the photo above!

“Hello, alt-911? A gang is trying to break into my house!!!”

“We know. We’re already there.”

Coming soon to any/all blue cities controlled by insane liberals, who hate cops, your new BLM/Sharia/Antifa non police force!

Mogadishu/Minneapolistan on the Mississippi!

Real or not, it’s pretty much in line with what they’d say.

Too bad that Minneapolis Residents don’t tell the police to bring a body bag when they come to clean up after attempted robberies.

Wasn’t it the (moslem) Mayor of London who once said that terrorist attacks are just part of living in a major city? So now giving up your wallet is just part of living in Minneapolis.

Hopefully by November 3rd this will all sink in. But, with these geniuses that keep voting these clowns back in office, I ain’t putting a whole lot of money on it.

I wonder if the Minneapolis police were told to surrender their firearms and keys to the squad car if they are accosted by esteemed members of BLM? Guns and cars can be replaced, you know. DOH!
