Zackly. Anyone who pushed back against their decision they’ve labeled a “white nationalist.”

Actually, I don’t believe it for a minute that the death threats were from “White Supremacists”

How many people make threats and identify themselves as “White Supremacists?”

It is more likely that they received death threats from BLM and Antifa that they’d be killed if they DIDN’T vote for defunding the police.

That’s a much more likely scenario. They were scared to finger BLM/Antifa’s oppressive/threatening tactics, so they concocted the story about “White Supremacists”

This is a lot like that Rasmussen poll that says people would feel safer with BIDen. 49% Biden 42% Trump not included: 25% GoF Yourself, Pollster (Not included-Really Trump) Roughly safer solitude Trump leads about 60-40

“What private security firm in their right mind would take this contract?”

News of the arrangement surfaced Friday, the same day the council voted 12-0 to abolish the Minneapolis Police Department, initiating steps toward establishing ‘peace officers’ and a new ‘holistic’ approach to public safety. The police force, which is largely white, has failed to regain the city’s trust after the death of Floyd. The new proposal would eliminate the existing police department and instead create a ‘department of community safety and violence prevention’.

Thier elected officials and voters are going to get the biggest Dawrin Award ever offered.

G*d hates idiots, and this is just another gravity test.

Another example of criminal, democratically elected government in action.

“””Where is the proof that these threats are from “white nationalists”?”””


My point as well. Where are the arrest records? Where are the names? Where is the information on the links to ‘white nationalism’?

The Standard Operating Procedure for Leftists is to claim they have been threatened when they do something stupid and the people push back.

“City’s” is the correct singular possessive construction.

It is also “damn,” not “dam.”
