It all comes down to the rats
Sure does. Their evil socialistic, atheistic, meaningless, irrational worldview where Slavery is Freedom and Vice is Virtue will destroy anything.
That’s the latest news from Lake Dough-be-Gone. The taxpayer’s dough be gone
What is the ‘other’ common-thread of America’s troubled cities?
Rejoice in the destruction. They’re “fighting for you”, remember?
I live next to the city and I have seen its’ decline. Cedar Riverside is Somalia Part 2. So much of the rest isn’t worth going to.
I think this is a little overstated. Yes, Minneapolis is a debt-lover’s paradise. Yes, it is a welfare haven where the deadbeats prey on the productive. And yes, it’s a pretentious Potemkin village that tries too hard to be taken seriously.
But it is not a crime-ridden hellhole, a sort of frozen Beirut. It is as corrupt as any Dem-run city always is, with gold-plated sports stadiums being built over taxpayer objections, bridges collapsing because of mysterious construction shortcuts, and streets that mountain goats refuse to travel. And most of these ills would be relieved if a conservative ran the place.
But you can walk around downtown at night without worrying about getting shot or mugged. And the Twin Cities are mostly suburbs anyway; the white flight out of the urban center started decades ago.
By the way, Peter Collier is another reformed radical, a close associate of David Horowitz, for those who don’t know.
Subsidize it to get more of it.
but, do the smelly street people still congregate in Burger King?
The last time I visited the Twin Cities, I was stunned at the number of women in long gowns. They greet you in hotels, in the grocery stores and department stores.
We left in 2001.
Pittsburgh is next.
The current Mayor is an in-the-closet leftist activist kook. And he’s building his base of equally radical supporters within city limits.
Urban areas simply attract a lot of people who have an inborn aversion to conservative principles like freedom, self-reliance, small government, etc.
"I'll tell you why we came to Minnesota. It was when we found out you only had 15,000 blacks here. Black people don't go to ballgames, but they'll fill up a rassling ring and put up such a chant it'll scare you to death. We came here because you've got good, hardworking white people here."
Time to move the team to Vermont, I guess. LOL.
Give a rat a cookie...
Now it’s the Skyway.
If by “long gowns” you mean those tablecloths raghead women wear, yeah, it’s freaky. I don’t think an uglier group of people exist on earth.
“But you can walk around downtown at night without worrying about getting shot or mugged.”
Uh...your post & the entire article make no mention of the Muslim problem in Minneapolis, or of Somalis in the state in general, or the muzzie-loving mayor who wants even more of them to come on in. J.S.
I usually stay at the Holiday Inn at Burnsville but never again...
