If only there was some device he could have carried that could even up the odds, that could let the bad guys know that this man could equal out against that group.
There must be something.
Hmmm. Could it be ferals, Somalians, muslims, amigos, gibs-me-dats, aspiring rappers, "youths", "teens" "good boys" and "youngsters turning their life around" ?
Exactly! The same thing is happening in Rochester, NY and the "progressive" MSM and public officials in the Dem-run city are purposely avoiding identifying the perps! They're in denial because their policies have enabled these feral youth.
In regards to a Minneapolis Somalian, the Mogadishu never really goes away. Assimilation is not the kind practiced by the Swedes or German of the past. Subsequent generations are nothing but trouble sucking on welfare,being gangster,going on Jihad trips and turning cities like Minneapolis into another third world American shit hole.
I spit on Obama who threw gasoline on a country already on fire with illegals. These libtards who import and appease these feral third world Koranimals are a clear and present danger to our Republic.
I lived in "The Cities" in the mid 60's while going to the University there (the "U"). Hennepin Ave. was no different back then. It was to be avoided with a date, and never go alone. Washington Ave., "skid row", was bad then, too, with the railroad stations, but the bums riding the rails are gone now.
Downtown Denver 20 years ago. City spent a fortune on the 16th Street Mall and LoDo. The ferals, bums and "crust punks" made things interesting.
Reading this article, however, I suspect it isn't the behavior that has gotten worse, it is the younger millennials' who now live downtown inability to tolerate it.
No. These are homegrown American thugs. They've never seen the inside of a mosque.
Yea that was my second guess..
I needed to identify the elephant. :)
Seattle has an equivalent publication called “The Stranger.” I don’t recall that language used. That language does not belong in a newspaper published weekly and given out at 350 locations throughout the Minneapolis region. I have never seen those words spelled out in any publication I have ever read. I cannot even spell them out on the Free Republic. There are standards. If they want to communicate those words they can write “f**k,” “sh*t,” “bit*h.” I don’t appreciate such descriptions as “woman “with the hot ass,”” “elevating their game from jerks to bastards.” And, “ It’s so f****d (my edit) up I can’t even believe it.”
The “City Pages” needs an editor. The piece is way too long.
I stayed at a hotel right off Hennepin for a work-related conference last fall. Even coming from San Francisco, I was shocked at the scene down there. Mostly it was just the vibe as described in the article, people just aggressively walking around, as if trying to bump into someone who they would then beat into a pulp for the hell of it. Scary place.
Well then, Fargo N.Dak, up the Interstate 4 hours will be next. The ratio of muslim immagrants there is even higher. Have taken over the area around West Acres Mall, Sams/Walmart in West Fargo is a virtual no-go zone after 11:00 pm
I thought the article was just fine and the language didn't bother me in the slightest.
It’s a blue city that depends on giving away free stuff to the multicult and now it can’t afford to pay them to be nice anymore.
They will do what the Left trained them to do when they aren’t happy with their free stuff. You reap what you sow, Progs.
As farms have gotten bigger and less farms are needed; all the wholesome farmkids have moved to MSP.
Right?
While I'm no fan of GWB's legacy of importing tens of thousands of Somalis to America, in this case I doubt they have much to do with the crime in Minneapolis.
There was black crime in MSP long before the Somalis showed up and if the city is anything like Denver, I'd bet it was far worse during the 1990s than it is today.
It’s a shame. I remember Minneapolis as jewel of a city with beautiful lakes, parks, the Mississippi River and Minnehaha Falls.
Years ago it was thriving business city and had mayors who came from the GOP moderate wind of the party. The city was vibrant and upscale.
Now the city has gone the way of all liberal cities with envy of capitalism the driving force for them voting for ever more liberal leaders.
Somalis. No doubt the great vetting let in those who shot at and killed our men in Mogadishu. The West is turning third world. Most of them offer nothing because Democrats are seeking worst of the worst to put them in power.
Ding, Ding, Ding, we have a winner!
