Minneapolis mayor booed out of protest after reportedly refusing to defund police

Minneapolis’ Democratic Mayor Jacob Frey was booed out of a protest on Saturday after reportedly refusing to back far-left calls to defund the Minneapolis Police Department -- a week after riots and looting tore through the city in the wake of George Floyd's death in police custody.

“Go home Jacob, go home,” the demonstrators yelled at the mayor, as others booed and chanted “Shame, shame, shame.”

The angry reaction from the crowd came after Frey said he did not back calls to defund the city's police force. He is seen walking away slowly as one protester gives him the middle finger and at least one object was thrown at him.

**SNIP**

But as protesters grow agitated at his answer, the unidentified leader demands a "yes or no" answer, saying: "We don't want no more police."

"I do not support the full abolition of the Minneapolis Police Department," Frey says.

There are only 800 police officers in Minneapolis. Easy to fire 800. Not like 38k in NYC.

Go Home!
Go Home!
Stay!
Stay!

WTF?
= = = = = = = = = =

I got chastised for naming a dog Stay.

Here Stay, Here Stay, Here Stay....

Someone thought I was driving the dog crazy so I had to explain to them that I trained the dog from a pup.

They also didn’t understand my reasoning of moving the ‘Deer Crossing’ signs from the curve to the straightaway so as the deer would be better seen.

Some people you just can’t ‘learn’ anything....

” Minneapolis’ Democratic Mayor Jacob Frey was booed out of a protest on Saturday after reportedly refusing to back far-left calls to defund the Minneapolis Police Department “

.

That was not a protest.

That was a “struggle session” and it is straight out of the Chinese Communist “Cultural Revolution” in the 1960s.

So much for publicly crying at a spectacle called a memorial service... start of it sounded like an ad for a law firm, then they got Al and Jessie, had it indoors while ‘regular’ folks have to wait till the ‘crisis (BEERFLU) is over to have a church service or public burial and this thug is lying in state in 3 different areas.

SURPRISED he wasn’t ‘invited’ to DC for the BLM extravaganza today.

But he was there in ‘spirit’ so send money...

"I do not support the full abolition of the Minneapolis Police Department," Frey says.

I did note the weasel-worded reply here. It could mean anything at all, you know. He could reduce any portion of the force while growing others. It could be 100% S.W.A.T. team, all meter maids, all detectives, or just a team to protect him and his cronies. Or it could be exactly what it is now. Whatever he does, even nothing at all, he didn't lie.

We don't want no more police.

We just want to destroy the city, and we don’t want anyone to stop us.

“We don’t want no more police” is a double negative. The “don’t” cancels out the “no” leaving “We want more police.”

Is he the mayor who was weeping at the Memorial Service?
Some mayor was bawling on John Boehner levels.

= = = = = =

You teach Stay to Stay by using Here.

I had a black cat I named Whitey and a white cat I named Blackie.

So when some one asked I would just point out the Whitey was Black and Blackie was White.

It didn’t really seem to matter to them as long as their meals were on time...

And that was before one could pick their own gender...

You are correct, but Jive doesn’t follow the rules of proper English.

Even that redundant nitwit Palestinian anarchist Sirhan Sirhan would be bright enough to say stop Stay
