Minnesota businesses not liking the unrest
Local | January 26, 2026 | From the Deer Stand

Posted on 01/26/2026 8:42:22 AM PST by From The Deer Stand

On local Twin Cities radio this morning a representative of an unnamed business said the liberal upheaval in the state is causing some businesses to rethink expansion in Minnesota. The individual, who did not want to be identified, said businesses and industry are seeing job recruitment as more challenging due to sanctuary city policies and unruly protests. Red states are more attractive.

Businesses that aren’t somali fraudsters should close and leave.

Maybe now they know how the Tesla dealerships felt. We’ve still got A-10s out on the flight line. Those gas masks and tromboners won’t stop 30mm rounds very well.

They’re not liking it but they’re not saying much.

But I thought all businesses were happily shutting down last Friday in solidarity with the “protesters.”

Won’t be long before all the fast food joints will be selling monkey brains burgers or road kill tacos.

So ... I have no sympathy.

The VAST majority of these leaders and employees of these companies have voted for this crap for DECADES.

They have passively let the Communists infiltrate their state.

Now, they own it.

It might be self preservation in some cases

They either pay the ransom of lip service or get torched in the
middle of the night.
The “ protesters “ are dangerous stark staring mad terrorists.

Some were

Most were happy to not have their windows busted out, their customers intimidated or being boycotted for not showing up the proper degree of solidarity with the protesters

There is a level of intimidation and coercion that is not being reported on by the media

After surviving the Summer of Love riots business do not wish to destroyed by current Winter of Discontent

The so called resisters should all be jailed along with their financiers.

Great! What happens when Minneapolis becomes a clone of Compton?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Going back to the days of Reagan could someone explain how Minneapolis became so liberal/leftist?
