Minnesotans have lost their minds. I wonder if Canada would give us some fresh walleye for Minnesota?

Brave Sir Robin ran away.
(”No!”)
Bravely ran away away.
(”I didn’t!”)
When danger reared it’s ugly head,
He bravely turned his tail and fled.
(”I never!”)

Protest are not mostly peaceful when buildings are burned and stores are looted.

That’s called a riot.

If Obama and Holder destroy every city then Chicago won’t look so bad.

The politicians make decisions in matters where they are not qualified. Let the police do their job.

the spineless LE in charge should have refused a unlawful order and mounted a counter assault against the rioters and called in back up.

The image is that the police retreated. The leftists literally made the police abandon their post and left citizens unprotected.

America is lost. Trump will lose the Senate because he just does not realized that most of the Republicans in that body are weak cowards and they are closely associated to communist Democrats.

Total b.s. All these "protesters are looking to agitate and incite.

This was required by their officers and politicians. The children of those who wasted our blood in Vietnam. Democrats got us in. Democrats turned their backs. And Republicans got bad press. The a.c nswer my friend is Repent. Honor the founding documents of this Republic. Repent and pray for this country or lose it.

Protesters do not destroy property, trespass and yell threats and scream at people (St. Louis).

I guess the mayor was hungry for some barbecued pork and cooked bacon.
