I also usually defend the police, but not the Minneapolis Police Department. Having lived in the area, I have found them to be the most unprofessional law enforcement organization I have run into. One of their chiefs, William McManus, took the top job at the San Antonio Police Department, and he has turn out to be a total cluster****.
Other police departments in the Twin Cities area are also some real turkeys.
Shave about 1/2 sec off the yell0w lights and it should be alright in a year or so.
Prohibition must end. Meth heads deserve help not incarceration.
Seriously they are pitiful. Everybody knows that crap is poison/walking death, yet they are addicted full well knowing the reaper is running them down at full speed.
The least we can do is make it legal, and cheap so they won't murder us in our sleep to get a fix of who knows what.
Take your pick, either the crack heads, or the Po Po will kick down your door. Prohibition has got to go.
As it turned out, the house the police broke into wasn't hers: so that try at framing the victim didn't work too well.
LOL! Thanks! Now if I could only figure out which prohibited activity they were engaged in. Hmmmm...
Meth heads probably need locked up. Then, they need to be checked out by a dentist before they start choking to death on teeth that fall out during sleep.
All of the above?
Let them choose,
more meth=death,
less meth=path to freedom.
A lot of em are gonna croak. It's their choice.
The drug war is over. It was over before it started.
The drug war is simply a money making machine for all involved except the end user of the drugs. You can support it and continue the growth of the police state at the expense of the freedom of the rest of us.
I’ll take the risk of protecting myself and family from meth-heads rather than giving up my personal freedoms for your drug war.
One of my first-cousin's daughters was murdered by a meth head who then committed suicide. He blew her head off with a shotgun.
I'm not sure meth addicts are human beings.
I’m sure that and the cops could add a few on of their own.
In this country, just about anything you can imagine is now illegal. We're all criminals due to one law or another. Someday we'll start acting like it.
Probably breathing without a license.

“...but not the Minneapolis Police Department. Having lived in the area, I have found them to be the most unprofessional law enforcement organization I have run into.”
I live right in the city of Minneapolis - albeit in the city’s relatively crime-free southwest side.
The Minneapolis Police Dept scares me - literally and figuratively. They are thugs with badges.
Their umbrella policies aren’t in force if they intentionally break the law. Look it up.
You might be right on that since the EPA considers CO2 a pollutant!
If I remember correctly (guys help me out), wasn’t the lefty Bouza Chief of Police of Minneapolis (and his wife was some kind of other leftist nut (back in the 70’s or 80’s.
He was a Kumbaya type of cop and a total failure. Then he went to California or some other liberal cesspool to make sure they stayed that way.
Max, you are 100% correct.
He was police chief from 1980-1989. His wife (Erica) was arrested several times for being involved in protests against Honeywell.
He was an East Coast know-it-all with an equally abrasive personality.
