Jail records show most arrested in Minneapolis riots have Minnesota addresses (Fox 9 Minneapolis)

From 1 hour ago:
quote:

MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) - The overwhelming majority of people arrested in connection with the Minneapolis unrest have Minnesota addresses, a search of the online Hennepin County Jail log shows.


Again, I’d wait to draw any conclusions one way or another.

Always wise but I bet it will be that way in every single place. These aren’t protesters for justice. They’re locals using the event as cover to trash and steal stuff.

It's funny watching both sides try to spin this.

The left is saying that violent instigators are actually off-duty cops or proud boys from out of state, and the right is saying it's antifa.

What the hell is the end game of either of those fantasies?

It is kind of funny that neither wants to admit there are a lot of bad actors that actually aren’t driven by any motive other than the fact that they are bad people and care not one bit about politics.

I don’t know, wade.
It sucks.
This whole deal is gutting me.

On a somewhat positive(?) note ... this was captured in Houston this evening:

I was in Columbia today and went down there not knowing what was happening. Unfortunately, I got a little caught up in it and saw some stomping on police cars and f the police stuff. Once I figured out what was going on, I promptly moved my evening plans over to Lexington.

I checked out of my downtown hotel 10 minutes after checking in. Learned later that the hotel had some windows smashed.

Good visit, Columbia. See ya in the fall.

They don’t break into bars and steal all the booze and take all the TVs from Target. They have a very clearly stated political goal of destroying America.

Stay safe. It's hard to process that this is happening in SC. Nobody here showed out like this even with the church massacre in Charleston. It was peaceful demonstrations. I guess I was naive bc I didn't think this would happen here now when it didn't then.

The mayor of St. Paul said 80% of the people arrested last night were from out of state.

Turns out he had it wrong and apologized tonight. 86% of those arrested were locals.
