“Healing our city will require peace and all of us working together.”

Screw you. I don’t give a rat’s ass about your city. YOU let it be destroyed, you leftist POS - so “you broke it, you bought it.” We-the-good-people should not have to fork over a DIME to help you rebuild.

I have a shred of hope that, as a result of this madness...more people will see the light and demand consequences and true law enforcement against the rioting and looting.

Sending in the National Guard is a fool’s errand. Unless the rules of engagement change, the NG will have no effect on the riots. All they will do is observe and report while the riots and destruction continue.

“COMPLETE LIARS in the press and black community causes even more pain and destruction in a Democrat led town, county, and state.”

Same thing that happened in Ferguson, MO. Must have been over a dozen witnesses and many lied about what happened. And of course the larger black community only believed the liars. Forensic evidence proved otherwise.

They’ve figured out that it’s helping President Trump. This is hilarious. Now, he will get credit for restoring law and order.

“Dangerous, unlawful behavior will not be tolerated...”

ONLY because Dem poll numbers are flat lining!

Man, these Socialist Democrats are so evil and dangerous! The time is PRIME for any and all Conservatives with the LEAST amount of experience and motivation to Primary every single Socialist Democrat in ANY office across the land!

So, where is the RNC recruiting and grooming people to contest the Socialist Democrats? Anybody? Anybody?

*CRICKETS CHIRPING*

*SPIT*

So why start now? Everyone in the area isn’t dead, yet.

A token force, to hopefully ensure Felons Against Trump (TM) will still be successful.

500 requested, 150 deployed.

So the Minneapolis mayor and gov are now thanking Trump for sending in the national guard? Are the National Guard allowed to restore order even if it means using live ammo?

My understanding of this is that Trump has nothing to do here. This is the MN gov calling in the MN "national guard", under the control of the MN gov. Probably still weak ROE. And not enough numbers.

“The unrest must stop and healing must start. Destruction will not be tolerated,"

Except that for months now, this idiot’s party has not only tolerated it, they have encouraged, abetted, excused, and praised it.

Sadly, a 17-year-old lad decided to fight back and now he is charged with double first degree murder. We need a whole lot more than a handful of our side to fight back. I hope the election produces a massive Trump and Republican victory. It’s the last chance to avoid a true civil war.
