Minneapolis City Council members are expected to vote today on changes they plan on incorporating pertaining to the police department in the aftermath of George Floyd’s death.

Today, officials are set to vote on a temporary injunction to immediately halt some MPD practices during an emergency meeting called by Mayor Jacob Frey.

(For a flavor of this see UK TV series “City of Vice”!) Today to not have police, wouldn’t be discovering lost libertarian principles but displaying political cowardice, intellectual & moral laziness and practicing true racism. Racism where the liberal politician is basically admitting that a certain demographic is incapable of obeying the law so we won’t require them to.
If they do this, who will confiscate the guns they want to ban?
The morgue guys can scoop ‘em up when collecting all the stiffs each day. Of course only the most trash version guns will be left on the scenes.
