Philipino gang territory,




Central American family/gang in Minneapolis




Decaying infrastructure (Collapsed Bridge)
Gang?

You're full of crap and obviously racist to boot.

Just think of all the infrastructure America could update if we hadn't been spending ten billion a month in Iraq. And all large American cities have less than eye pleasing areas.

The bridge collapse? You're aware that a Republican got fired over that no?

Everyday is paradise here. And everyday you stay out of here is a cherry on top.

You played the race card.

So sorry to have to slap you in the face with it in return.

You are a waste of my time and are simply trolling.

Enjoy your life in the land of hate and paranoia.

You're so smart.

You should run for office.

MN regularly has the highest voter turnout of any state.

The first open heart surgery and the first bone marrow transplant in the United States were done at the University of Minnesota.

We regularly win awards from all sorts of organizations and magazines for our quality of life.

Only NYC has higher attendance for theater.

Guess where most of the iron ore used to make the ships, tanks and planes during WWII came from?

People from all over the world come to the U of M hospital and the Mayo clinic for treatment.

I could go on for hours. But I won't waste my time with a prejudiced person who has probably never set foot in the state.

If I remember corrrectly, Minnesota leads the U.S. in lakes - but lots of mosquitoes and the largest outlet mall in America.

The mosquitoes are not fun, some years.

90,000 miles of shoreline, more than California, Florida and Hawaii combined.

And while the license plates say 10,000 - there are actually more like 15,000 lakes.

And then there's the North Shore of Lake Superior.

My mother in law was born in Minnesota. It is a beautiful state notwithstanding Michelle Bachmann or politics.

Why wouldn't we want to see who has the American peoples' best interests in mind?
You're insane LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How would you do this in a country that is free? What scale would you use? How big a Senator's flag pin is? How loud they sing the national anthem? Who cares what Anti-American means to you or that quack Congresswoman. You epitomize why republicans have fallen so far..

You can't legislate love of country. It means what it means to each individual.

I've listened to the very intelligent and witty things he has said over the past few years.

Minnesota, elected Michelle Bachman (R) and Norm Coleman (R), so yes, they do make stupid choices, I agree.
