Twenty-one officers from various Minnesota law enforcement agencies were injured and more than 102 protestors were arrested as a demonstration on the I-94 freeway in St. Paul turned violent Saturday night, with protestors hurling rocks, bottles, fireworks and bricks at law enforcement officers on the scene.

Hundreds of demonstrators began protesting at the Governor’s Residence in St. Paul Saturday night over the police-involved shooting death of Philando Castile earlier in the week before heading onto the I-94 freeway around 8 p.m., local Fox affiliate KMSP reported.

The interstate was shut down in both directions for more than five hours and the protests eventually turned violent, with demonstrators hurling bricks, fireworks and at least one Molotov cocktail at officers, according to the St. Paul Police Department.

Take away their Welfare checks...that will shut them up!

Arresting ‘protestors’ is the right short term answer.

Another one of those “extremely peaceful protests” like the one in Dallas where BLM preaches for the murder of white people.

I put the blame for this on President Obama and Governor Dayton.

The Jarrett/Soros/Obama practice of the Alinsky formula is showing signs of succeeding isn’t it?

But, like with the moose limbs, it had nothing to do with a certain organization. Right? JV squad, lone wolf thingy.

Toss job applications in their directions and watch them scatter

It would be wrong to post a picture of Charlton Heston being pelted with apples, right?

Good. The Democratic Gov who shot off his mouth has his residence invaded by his wild-eyed friends. Hope he had a nice weekend.

Anyone who hurls a homemade firebomb should be stopped with whatever force necessary so that he doesn’t do it again.

Twenty-one officers from various Minnesota law enforcement agencies were injured and more than 102 protestors were arrested as a demonstration on the I-94 freeway in St. Paul turned violent Saturday night . . . with protestors hurling rocks, bottles, fireworks and bricks at law enforcement officers on the scene.

Police should have video that zooms in on the faces of every single thug at these riots, so they can later identify the criminals who initiate violence. This was assault with a deadly weapon and battery. The violent rioters should be locked up for at least a decade each for their crimes.
