There’s an old saying that when the cat’s away, the mice will play. But in Minnesota, even when the adults are standing right there cheering them on, the mice still can’t help themselves.
The Land of Ten Thousand Lakes has become ground zero for progressive hysteria over federal immigration enforcement. Schools shuttered for days. Attorney General Keith Ellison filing lawsuits against the feds. Parents forming human shields outside school buildings like we’re living in some kind of war zone. The entire state apparatus has been mobilized against ICE agents who are simply doing their jobs. And for what? For enforcing laws that have been on the books for decades? I’d laugh if it weren’t so exhausting.
Minnesota’s leadership spent weeks painting immigration enforcement as an existential threat, whipping students and families into a frenzy of fear. So when high schoolers organized a walkout this week—marching from their classrooms to the State Capitol in St. Paul to demand ICE leave Minnesota—the adults practically threw a parade. These brave young activists, we were told, were standing up for vulnerable communities. One student organizer declared they were out there because ICE is “terrorizing our neighborhoods and putting our safety on the line.” Ellison himself addressed the crowd, calling a woman killed during an ICE encounter a “martyr” and praising the students for their courage.
Inspiring stuff, right? Real profiles in courage. Just wait.
Then the protesters started beating each other up.
From Human Events:
High school ICE OUT protest ends early as students begin brawling inside the state capital. Police have begun detaining the assailants.
A fight broke out between high schoolers who walked out of school in Minnesota to protest ICE..

Let that sink in for a moment. The demonstration against law enforcement had to be shut down early—not by police in riot gear, not by counter-protesters, not by the big bad ICE agents they’d been warned about. No, these young activists managed to shut themselves down by descending into violence against each other. Video footage shows absolute chaos erupting inside the Capitol as students throw punches and grapple with one another while others scramble to escape. And who had to step in and restore order? The same police these kids were out there protesting.
You truly cannot make this stuff up. I’ve tried. Reality keeps outpacing my imagination.
The community “marshals” who showed up specifically to protect students from the supposed threat of immigration officers? Couldn’t protect them from each other. The young activists demanding safety for their community? Created the very danger they claimed to fear. Is anyone else seeing the irony here, or is it just me?
Here’s the thing—I’ve watched a lot of protests over the years, and they tend to reveal character. Not the character people want to project, but who they actually are when the cameras are rolling and emotions run hot. When your movement can’t hold itself together long enough to finish your chants, when the internal dysfunction spills out onto the Capitol floor before you’ve made your point, maybe it’s time for some self-reflection. Maybe the problem isn’t the people enforcing the law. Maybe it’s the people who never learned to follow it.
Minnesota’s progressive leadership has spent weeks teaching these kids that law enforcement is the enemy, that rules are optional when your cause feels righteous enough, that chaos is acceptable collateral damage in the pursuit of social justice. Well, congratulations. They got the chaos. The justice part remains elusive.
There’s a reason civilization requires order. There’s a reason we have laws and people willing to enforce them. It’s not because authority figures are power-hungry tyrants—it’s because people, left to their own devices, sometimes can’t govern themselves. Minnesota just demonstrated that truth on camera, in their own State Capitol, at their own protest. They didn’t even need ICE to prove the point. They did it all by themselves.

Deport them.

Bwahahaha. The usual suspects.
Tyreese and Takesha cannot ever get together without some tribal nonsense breaking out. Even if they are there to protest something completely unrelated to themselves.
Animals belong in a zoo, not in a school.
They leared that in daycare.
What’s with all the face diapers?
I thought that taking over a capitol building was “bad”. But still the young Stalinists do it to the applause of their teachers. And then beat up some young Trotskyists.

Are you sure she’s the state bird instead of the state fossil?

Hopefully not for long.
Bussing in exuberant youth that have no clue, under the premise of expressing hate, hate, hate... just what did they think was going to happen?
Thought students would show up but Savages showed up instead ,LOL
It’s a cultural thing. They wear them to disguise their identities when, those that commit crimes, and the others wear them in solidarity with the ones that commit crimes. It’s a very effective form of disguise: mask, hoodie, dark glasses. Add safety in numbers and you can have a flash mob and virtually no way to identify a single one of them.

Somalis be takin’ the bruthas’ re’prashuns.
Do you know what per cent of the state bird population was hatched in state and how many migrated from other states?
Just street apes fighting for territory with a rival troop.
