St. Paul police arrested at least 46 people Tuesday near the Governor’s Residence on Summit Avenue in a day marked by tense standoffs and groups of protesters being driven to jail in buses.

The location has been the focal point of protests for 20 days, beginning just after a St. Anthony police officer fatally shot Philando Castile in Falcon Heights the night of July 6. Police shut down Summit Avenue in front of the residence for about a week and a half and then reopened it, but protesters closed it down again Sunday night.

On Tuesday morning police made an attempt to re-open the avenue.

Mayor Chris Coleman said it started out peacefully but some protesters became uncooperative.

This is good. I suspect they are bugging Governor Mark Dayton, who did a full on Obama when the story broke, claiming racism before any facts were known.

I hope he like living with these protestors.

He is likely taking the time to “travel”.

I haven’t kept up with this. Was it a good shoot?

This whole protest has just been another lie.

Philandro Castille was killed by a Mexican, not a white cop.

Since the black guy wasn’t killed by a white cop, the death means less than nothing to me and doesn’t matter at all except to grifters and criminals in the demokrat party and their media.

I would gas them all like in the end to The Shape Of Things To Come, then shovel them as depicted in Soylent Green,

Then I’d bill them for the service.

Minnesota’s National Guard has been instructed by Gov. Dayton to take Cub Scouts out into the woods near Camp Ripley and instruct the kids in “diversity”.

If normal people don’t like it, Gov. Dayton says the bigots who don’t like muslim welfare culture and pederasty need to get out.

Probably. Still under investigation.

Beautiful house on a lovely street. I remember traveling from Los Angeles to St. Paul and walking down Summit Avenue. Felt like paradise: old grand homes, lush yards and super wholesome people. And the cathedral at the end of the avenue is better than any church in California. So sad to see the evil filth approach Summit Ave.

Facts are meaningless; it is just a convenient excuse to demand more free sh!t (and actually stealing it if the opportunity presents itself).

In my younger days I thought status was tied to money and titles at work; today it seems that status is measured in how few unassimilated minorities one has to encounter in the course of a workday.
