Images of rioters setting fire to the 3rd Police Precinct were beamed around the world Friday, symbolizing a city out of control.

Several people were pictured inside the building, roaming through its corridors with baseball bats, axes and torches while scrawling graffiti on the walls.

Isn’t ‘hand to hand’ the result when you run out of ammo? The police ran out of ammo??

The governor, mayor, and police chief all came to the microphone with platitudes and nothing but cowardice.

They claimed to be in charge but did NOTHING and used no resources at their disposal to protect the people and their property.

Typical democrats: Cowards.

Does the mayor know he is not wearing a mask?

Doesn’t he care about everyone around him dying of the KungFlu anymore?

If there was an attempt to burn down the mayor’s residence you can be sure the perpetrators would be shot dead faster than a rabbit has sexual intercourse.

That wouldn’t happen of course, since the mayor is helping to direct this whole charade.

Curse that Trump and his inflammatory rhetoric for causing all this! /s

They must be the white supremacist instigators the liberal apologists have been talking about.

Shouldn't have to be any hand to hand. Bean bag guns, rubber bullets, water cannons, dogs.
And what ever happened to the microwave Active Denial System? Haven't seen it deployed anywhere.

Bottom line is the rioters are getting more and more emboldened and will start shooting. Then many of them will die.

Meanwhile, not a single word from any Minnesotan calling out this loser of a mayor for allowing his city to burn.

If you people in Minnetonka or Lakeville think you are immune from damage maybe you should rethink this situation a bit. It’s only a matter of time before those Twin Cities issues come to your neighborhood

Liberals always start (allow) fires that they become the target of and cannot put out.

Then they - the Liberals - try to deflect the blame to others, while all the time they had been in control the cause of the fire was building and they did nothing.

The cop being blamed (regardless of his guilt) had so many prior claims against him it begs the question of why he was still on the force. In fact, there were criminal charges against him in the past, as a cop, that Amy Klobuchar - when she had the chance - did not prosecute him on.
