Click on the link to see how the law enforcement establishment caves to the whims of a puny little band while the 99% become imprisoned in traffic. Point goes to: Protestors. Lesson learned: "The cops let us stick to to everyone and we're going to do it again!"

Don’t arrest those crossing the border illegally.

Don’t arrest those obstructing traffic on a freeway.

Don’t arrest those parading naked in gay pride marches.

Don’t arrest those making death threats against the president or our citizens.

I’m seeing a trend here.

My taxes pay for those roads and I have every right to use them. If you are obstructing traffic, you deserve to be arrested. Period.

I’m guessing the majority of folks delayed by these urban protests vote Democrat.

Something has to be done about the welfare culture in this country. Why aren't these people at work like normal people? Are we actually paying them while they waste all our time?

And parents.... if your kid is out on the street partying instead of looking for a job, it's time to use a little tough love. Make them move in with one of their "protesting" friends. Tell them enough freeloading. It's time to grow up.

I guess I broke a rule by posting the article with my own title, which accurately reflected the truth of the situation. The reality of the article is:MN STATE and LOCAL POLICE to FACILITATE LAWLESSNESS

My apologies to the mods for my self-titling faux paus

Somebody should tell the cops the protestors are selling loosie cigarettes. Apparently police have no discretion in those matters and have no choice but to make the arrest.

Law enforcement in effect joins protesters and ensures their safety and the success of their event without any inconvience, except to the rest of the citizenry trying to go about their daily task and work.

Lenin’s old dictum for his Bolshevik troops was “Probe with bayonets. If you encounter steel, withdraw. If you encounter mush, proceed.”

These “officers of the law” are mush, so the communists proceed towards the destruction they always bring.

This might not be as stupid as it seems.

“Protesters” are looking for a fight - it's how they keep themselves on the front page. The MSM wants to kiss up to the protesters but something has to be happening.

Many in the press missed the real civil rights movement - the one that was majestic - the civil rights movement that had NOTHING whatsoever to do with protecting thieves, rapists, and common criminals. The press wants give free coverage but they can't do that if nothing’s happening.

Martin Luther King Jr had his forward movement stopped in Albany Ga during the height of the civil rights movement.

Some local sheriff actually read MLK’s writings - and realized the civil rights movement was based on people being arrested. The Sheriff put out the word that under NO CIRCUMSTANCES was MLK to be arrested - or any of the other protesters. It worked. Things ground to a halt. If memory serves after some time an overzealous deputy arrested some protesters and the Sheriff's strategy failed. King went on to another city and the movement was back on.

Next the cops will be helping them carry their looted 60” flat-screens from Walmart to their cribs. That’s a long walk.

Bull$h!t. They were told not to arrest because the administration agrees with the goals of the protesters.

Just let someone walk near an abortion clinic with a “Jesus” sign and he is arrested on the spot.

I don’t believe anything these people say.

“they made on-the-spot decisions to keep demonstrators safe from traffic...”

Why?

Ok I know the Police are swore to protect all the people,...but.....?
