Not guilty! Also, she writes for College Fix. Highly doubt she votes Dimm.
One of our FReepers just bailed last week IIRC. Never to return.
College student at Gustavus Adolphus College, about 60-70 miles SW of downtown.
She writes for The College Fix, so probably very conservative.

Where Demonrats govern there is a $hithole
Probably not for long after this was published.
I have no doubt, by the way, regarding how the historical Gustavus Adolphus would have handled this situation. The gallows would have strained to take the weight.
signs on the state lines of Minnesota, Michigan, and Wisconsin reads: Middle Eastern Muslims Welcome! /s
All because they hated Bush and Trump.
This is what voting for Democrats brings every time.
I grew up in and attended high school in a good first ring suburb of Minneapolis.
Moved o Minneapolis after graduating in high school. It was always left of center but, with the exception of a few areas, it was decent. I lived in a respectable area in southwest Minneapolis and worked in downtown Minneapolis.
As the years went by, my neighborhood got a bit seedier. Finally in 2014, I left for good. It wasn’t just the deterioration of my neighborhood. Other factors played into it as well - marriage, etc.
There are still some decent parts of Minneapolis - but they are overwhelmingly under the sway of neighborhood control freaks, SJW’s, Karen’s, etc. There are more BLM yard signs in upscale white areas of Minneapolis than there are in poorer minority areas of the city.
Crime is increasing. The always iffy roads are getting no better. Downtown is getting less safe. If you’ve been on Hennepin or Nicollet Avenues, you’ll know exactly what I mean.
Will things change?
NO. The Dems have always had firm control of the city - especially since the 1970’s. But today’s Democrats and their followers are a new breed of crazy, politically and intellectually. Many of the city council are dim bulbs, elected only because of their social justice activism and/or skin color and/or gender.
They recently re-elected Ilhan Omar to Congress. Before that, it was Keith Ellison. The members of the Hennepin County Board of Commissioners whose districts are in Minneapolis are no better. During the riots last year, you saw the complete deer in the headlights look of the mayor, Jacob Frey.
I hate to engage in hyperbole - but if you live in Minneapolis, GET OUT! And no, don’t think moving to Bloomington or Plymouth will solve things either. Those areas have gotten bad too. Go further out into the 3rd ring ‘burbs or even exurbs.
Things will only get worse in Minneapolis.
Everything in this opinion piece is correct, as far as it goes. My wife was afraid to go outdoors, even into our backyard. She called me at work one day to say she was barricaded in the basement with my revolver, which is way too big for her, because there was a guy wandering around outside waving a handgun.
We could list a litany of other real issues in my neighborhood...as far as it goes.
The author didn't go far enough on blaming politicians. Yes, there were the racists, Maxine Waters and Al Sharpton. She neglected to say the burning of the city was encouraged by the mayor, Jacob Frey. She didn't say the mayhem above the covid imprisonment can be credited to our tyrant governor, Tim Walz.
She didn't say 20% of the police department had left with more sensible cops leaving every day, and no one in his right mind would work as a Mpls cop for any price. They get no support from the city or the state.
It was the city, with state approval, that allowed a lynching of a Mpls cop on national television over the last month. That kind of treatment is what any aspiring Mpls cop would be signing up for.
My biggest problem now is I still have friends and family in Mpls. One of the friends is a cop. He may have more than 20 years in now. If so he may soon be among the gone.
Minneapolis has become just another city run into the ground by Democrats. Democrats can be counted on to destroy any and everything they touch.
I worked for the opposition party since the early 1990's. You could say the rest got what they voted for. I'm not even sure that is true. Minnesota has had as much voter fraud as Chicago since, at least, the mid-1970s.
Anyone who has watched Mike Lindell's documentary about the 2020 election understands none of us are safe if that isn't fixed. In fact, if not fixed, the nation is finished. Mpls is already beyond redemption.
If she wants a good place to move to, she should try Knoxville, TN.
The next state to lose congressional representation in 2030.
They were primed to be attacked and used as an optic for the rest of the country.
No-go zone. Could just renamed it to Minneapolis Township to commemorate the excitement that happened in the “townships” of South Africa after Apartheid was halted.
