Minnesota Police Group Withdraws Democrat Endorsements After Video of Union Chief Beaten in Effigy
Breitbart ^ | 9/11/20 | Joshua Caplan

Posted on 09/12/2020 4:19:37 AM PDT by Mozilla

The Minnesota Police and Peace Officers Association board has switched its endorsements of Democrat candidates to Republican after one Democrat candidate was purportedly caught on video beating a piñata with the likeness of top police union official Bob Kroll.

Brian Peters, who serves as executive director of the police association, expressed concern over DFL caucus’ support of Thompson after he was identified as beating the Kroll effigy.

“The endorsements that we rescinded, my issue was those candidates did not stand up to their leadership and put pressure on and ask why are we supporting a candidate who did this in Hugo,” Peters said.

“If this is the future of the Democratic Party, my organization is going to support elsewhere,” he added.

Peters did not identify which Republicans were endorsed by the police group.

The development comes in the wake of President Donald Trump scoring two high profile endorsements from police unions: The Fraternal Order of Police and the Police Benevolent Association of the City of New York (PBA).

If they had ANY sense or scruples or values, the RINO’s that jumped ship would do the same.

Set up thugs/mobs/countries to destroy OUR civilization. Enemies foreign, enemies domestic (harder to control on 09-12-2020).

They will ruin lives, innocent lives, as many innocent lives as they want to ruin. SUPEREVIL. No “law” can stop them. FF could not have anticipated what goes on in the head of SUBHUMANS. They saw some of it but didn’t understand the thought processes. It was not addressed in our founding.

Bill Gates
George Soros
Joe Biden
Kamala Harris
Hillary Clinton
Barack Obama
Anthony Fauci
Mark Zuckerberg
Nancy Pelosi
Andrew Cuomo
Gavin Newsom
Gretchen Whitmer
Lori Lightfoot
Jeffrey Epstein
Harvey Weinstein
Ghislaine Maxwell
Anthony Weiner
AOC
Marxine
etc., etc., etc.

These are just some of the American SUBHUMAN SUPEREVIL. There are many, many others in this republic and around the world.

The SUBHUMAN SUPEREVIL take great delight in DESTROYING the positive characteristics of human beings.

Oh...and that SUBHUMAN PSYCHOPATH Bill Clinton was so great at “compartmentalizing” wasn’t he?

Department of SELECTIVE justice/injustice will be right on it...right Billy Bagpipes & Hairface Durham?

The enemy within and the international enemies (Steele dossier/Wuhan lab, etc., etc., etc.) have teamed up for the overthrow of the U.S.A. Asymmetric WAR. We’ve never experienced such on OUR OWN SOIL.

POPCON prima donnas, along with Bill Gates & Anthony Fauci and other governors/representatives/agency heads/MIC feeders, calling for L3 & L4 lab shutdowns around the world until people are held accountable for the damage done to their dear citizens and states in 4...3...2...1....0 seconds, minutes, hours, days, week, years, light years.

330 MILLION vs. ????? (in America)

But this is amazing to me. That they endorsed them in the first place seeing the treatment towards law enforcement and the military all across the country. Unbelievable that it took this incident to withdraw support. But at least they did.

What did they expect? It should have been obvious that democrats hate the police and intend to eliminate them so their voters can help themselves to anything they want and kill people.

HOORAY police in the cars, doing the grunt work.

I coached many of these fine young men in baseball when they were little guys...from patrolmen to local undercover men, to sheriffs to CBP to SS to armed forces. All GREAT kids and GREAT men. I conversed with many of their GREAT parents and family members. (no special forces that I can recall)

HOORAY armed forces. Against all enemies, foreign & DOMESTIC.

3 of my buddies from my youth, never came home from Vietnam...and my assistant coaches 2 older brothers never came home.

War is a terrible thing. Being a slave is worse.

Its because at the State level, the Democrats having been buying the police, fireman and teachers votes with local tax dollars for years... and letting the unions run amok with crazy contracts..

Not amazing really, the police and other public unions vote their paychecks till they can’t... the moment the left commies move a toe towards the center, the public employee unions will be back under the Demoncrats umbrella.

Why? Union officials all over the country, Cops included, are part of the Democratic Machine. Doesn’t matter whats good for the rank and file members.

Politics and money. Unions will endorse anyone in position to help the union (bosses).

The Democrats however stepped over a line that even corrupt union bosses could not tolerate (de-funding the police).

This had nothing to do with the effigy, that was just the excuse they needed.

After thinking about it, yes it is an obvious truth. Unions were always under this party’s control. Coming back to bite them in this case.

Hope that’s the case. I suspect that scores of individual law enforcement across country will just vote accordingly.

When you see what Democrats stand for and support you have to be insane to vote for them.
