Just-Laid-Off Minneapolis Police Officer Looks On Helplessly As Rioters Burn Down City Council Members’ Homes
Lieutenant Chris Gastelum was laid off yesterday by the Minneapolis Police Department after the city council voted to defund the police. As he was walking home, he saw, by chance, some rioters throwing Molotov cocktails at the homes of several city council members. But, sadly, he was powerless to do anything, as he’d just turned in his gun and badge.
“Help, officer — they’re burning down my house!” screamed a city council member.
“Oh, shoot! Sorry! Would love to help but they couldn’t afford me anymore,” Gastelum said. One rioter paused, worried he would be arrested. “Oh, no, sir, go right ahead,” the former officer said. “I’m not a cop anymore. Feel free to continue with your mostly peaceful protest.”
“Better luck next time!” Gastelum said cheerily to the city council member before skipping on his merry way, a newfound spring in his step.
“It’s a real bummer,” he told reporters later. “I would have loved to help out.” Just then, he turned another corner to see another city council member getting mugged. “Hey, good to see you!” he shouted at her. “Hope everything’s going well for you! Have a great day!”

Sadly, this is what happens when elected leaders don’t care about their oath to uphold and protect the citizens. Don’t care about the people who elected them at all.
Turn them out of office, folks!
Not too bright, these ones.
This is your mind on drugs.
Oops! You beat me to it. lol
Holy *”@@##$ , this guy is good!
The guy is good!
Hopefully a lot of blacks discover him.
The Ferguson Effect.
Obviously they didn’t defund the police enough.
Cut another million dollars from the PD and see if that helps.
“Sadly, this is what happens when elected leaders don’t care about their oath to uphold and protect the citizens.”
Expectedly this is what happens when idiot “citizens” elect morons to office.
No one is that stupid.
They are regretting their choices. Too late.
Equally disturbing is that so many of the republicans aren’t much better.
They are that stupid. No really.
what?! the elitist college mental health counselors didn’t solve the crime problem? that’s a real shame
After a long, deranged bender, the hangover is really nasty.
LOL!
