On Wednesday, a federal court gave approval to a plan by the city of Minneapolis, Minnesota to reward 12 Black Lives Matter rioters with a collective total of $600,000 over injuries they sustained during said riots.
The Daily Caller reports that the court’s decision settled a lawsuit originally filed by the far-left American Civil Liberties Union of Minnesota (ACLU-MN) on behalf of the rioters, and subsequently forbids the city of Minneapolis from using force to suppress violent riots. The injunction by the Minnesota U.S. District Court also forces all Minneapolis police officers who are deployed to riots to wear body-cameras, and limits the police force’s use of chemical agents for dispelling riots.
“Tear gas, foam bullets and pepper spray became weapons for intimidating and hurting protesters, making it dangerous for people to exercise their First Amendment rights,” ACLU-MN Legal Director Teresa Nelson falsely declared. “We hope this settlement sends a message to law enforcement across Minnesota that this violation of our constitutional rights will not be tolerated.”

ROTFLMAO. Well, the new American is not the sharpest knife in the draw. Most of them can’t even speak English.
I am afraid we will have to rebuild society starting at the anarchy phase of the cycle.
While the peaceful Trump supporters rot in jail. Anyone investigate Ashli Babbitt?
liberal rioters get PAID! conservative protestors get JAIL for INSURRECTION!!!!
If it were conservatives doing the rioting, tho outcome would be much different...
Why? Just think of how many people still send their kids to public school. They teach that humans are evil and the planet is dying. That America is the most evil of all and that every degeneracy is good. The public schools around me are full. Why would such people care about giving criminals money?
Time for the people to take back the country...
No wonder it's a shiitehole.
More theft by government.
I agree
Here’s a tip....if you own property there...sell it now. Get out before property values collapse.
Or maybe it's just those we allow to run the train... (spit)
They could have hurt their backs carrying off stolen goods or carrying bricks.
“forbids the city of Minneapolis from using force to suppress violent riots. “
Would that mean otherwise regular citizens can beat the crap out of rioters without having to fear police action, as long as the riot is brought to the regular citizens forcing them to be involved in the riot? I bet it doesn’t.
Put them in a room and throw in the money let them fight it out
Destroy tens of millions in property. Create a situation endangering the public. Loot. Attack police.
Then get paid?
Insanity.
These cases never go to trial. I’d award ZERO to these fools or anyone fighting with a police officer. Resist arrest? Dying can result. Sorry but you chose poorly. ZERO.
Why are people getting paid to destroy their communities?
We’ve really gone off the rails in this country.
Drones were there taking high res footage of all of the riots and captured the Rittenhouse self defense shootings. High res drones operated by the feds.
So why were none of the rioters - ON VIDEO breaking the law - charged?
The Antifa and BLM are now the brownshirt thug enforcers for the DNC and used by Deep State to ‘soften up’ the public. All of these riots were meant to create a desire for things to ‘get back to normal’ (Deep State running the country) in the average voter.
That didn’t work though so they still had to steal it.
We need more Elon Musk-type dumping of what’s been taking place. That’s why Assange was set up and is still a fugitive because leaking - shining a light on the darkness - works.
For the Lefties, this is simply the cost of doing business. And it is proof that justice is dying under their "rule" in places like Minneapolis.
Illegal for police to intervene? Where is this place?
It will be up to the people to accept it or put a stop to it themselves.
Reading my copy of the US Constitution, I fail to see the article where looting, firebombing and killing are classified as “Free Speech.”
But I’m sure this latest gesture by Minneapolis will go a long way to prevent riots in the future ... NOT
