    State law enforcement here in Minnesota has told protesters not to come. All politicians who were scheduled to speak will not be showing up.

    Wanna bet that a curfew is next?

      I’ll take that bet. Of course state law enforcement and Governor Walz will say that. They have multiple unidentified, as far as we know, people running from law enforcement who have shown no compunction with using deadly force and seem to have intentions that run contrary to the protests.

      Do you actually think any of us are really going to stay home? That’s not who we are. The Minnesotans that would be going in the first place represent what true Minnesotans are and won’t be dissuaded by this.

      Other article said all 201 members of the state legislature are in protective custody. I have been wondering what that exactly means.
