When the riots started, my sympathy for the protesters dissolved. I still feel really horrible about George Floyd’s death and condolences to his grieving family.

Minnesota Freedom Fund also fundraises to bail out illegal immigrants. Their staff includes:

Tonja Honsey, Executive Director
Greg Lewin, Board President
Jeff Strier
Michael Friedman, Board Member
Steve Boland, Treasurer
Simon Cecil, Founder
Octavia Smith, Emeritus Board President

Honsey, a meth dealer with a record as a check forger and thief, also founded a group called We Rise! for incarcerated mothers. Smith is linked to an organization called Voices for Racial Justice, led by a Somali Muslim advocate named Mustafa Jumale.

They are not protestors at this point, they are rioters / looters / arsonists. Any legitimate protestors should have gone home.

If one is merely “protesting”, why are they being arrested? these scumbags are largely raising money for rioters.

RE:”Officers are severely outnumbered.”

Well DUHHH, they shouldn't be there.

They should be home safe practicing social distancing.

NO good will come of forcing police to stop this HISTORIC civil rights protest.

Watching CNN now.

CNN headquarters still standing unlike the Targets Stores in MN

Does anyone have a burner phone? Call that number saying you need bailed out, and gather intelligence.
