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.

It would be,obviously,in the interests of "social distancing".

Note to self: Born to Conserve is unlikely to give up his wallet willingly.
Do they still have police in Minneapolis?
Come to think of it, maybe it's not such a stretch.
Yes, I note that it's cleverly worded. Non-judgmental.
In fact, it really doesn't say anything the City Council could take issue with. Obey and submit.
Looked and could not find any major website or news media carrying this story.
I think I got a better idea. Why don’t we just shoot the bastards?
So the women of this community should just shut up and take it when their boyfriends beat them up?
This is beyond disgusting.
MN is going red.
Count on it.
Is this some kind of sick joke?
this happens b/c people can’t believe it would happen.
Who here ever thought these wild filthy animals would be thisclose to running the country? I certainly did not.
Do it.
Things are only going to get worse with these stupid defunding/dismantling efforts of LE, we're turning back into the wild west. It's coming...
The beatdowns of citizens will continue until morale improves. < /sarc >
BE PREPARED to be UNCIVILIZED toward the UNCIVIL.
CIVILIZATION
Civilization is the progress toward a society of privacy. The savage’s whole existence is public, ruled by the laws of his tribe. Civilization is the process of setting man free from men.
The precondition of a civilized society is the barring of physical force from social relationships—thus establishing the principle that if men wish to deal with one another, they may do so only by means of reason: by discussion, persuasion and voluntary, uncoerced agreement.
The necessary consequence of man’s right to life is his right to self-defense. In a civilized society, force may be used only in retaliation and only against those who initiate its use.

Bang. Yhats my response.
A police force of cucks and crooks is why vigilance committees are formed. Minneapolis PD is definitely led by crooked cucks.
