Well it Doesn’t take a astrophysicist to see the writing on wall. This is all well documented in histories well-thumbed pages.

Covid, riots, new police agenda , all of the liberal politicians. Yeah, it’s Gonna change and not for the better. unless -here’s a crazy idea: Go Vote with Your brain not your heart. Might just be the thing that saves Minneapolis from the unrelenting blue haired , thick framed glasses wearing, hate spewing , anti white , communist asshats.

Actually I kinda do, but I don’t. I do because you get what you vote for and the only way to back to sanity is a long windy road through hell. I don’t because I’m gonna miss going to restaurants, sport , museums, etc. etc.

I haVe family coming up for the 4th and they want nothing to do with Minneapolis -don’t even wanna drive through it. This is a shame. All the negative media attention lately (deserved IMO) coupled with defunding the police will only accelerate Losses to business /conventions /city traffic.

Is your city council/mayor totally blind to the fact that the whole country, INCLUDING out-state Minnesota is watching their charade? Do they actually think their actions (or inactions) aren't going to dramatically affect the inflow of business and tourism to Minneapolis? Do they even care?

I believe this city is at a crossroads, and the path they're choosing will be a disaster.

He doesn’t live in Minneapolis. He lives in a suburb near Lake Minnetonka.

Wait...Jacob Frey doesn't live in Minneapolis?


Wow. I'm a little surprised by that. I hear people say they think police should live in the cities they work, and I think there may be some merit to that, but I am actually surprised that the mayor of Minneapolis doesn't live in Minneapolis. It sounds kind of like the governor of Minnesota not living in Minnesota.


On the other hand, maybe he knows that protesters would be outside his door whenever he made a decision the mob didn't agree with, like Mike Freeman?

I was referring to the poster. Someone said “your city council/ mayor” to a poster who lives in the burbs. I can see now it wasn’t clear who “he” was. Of course the mayor lives in Minneapolis.

You’re in a nice area. I lived in Minnetonka for 20 years.
