I’m not in the big cities, but they are protesting about 15 miles from me. Members Airspyder, Inge, and CBWho are near the worst of it. My brother, his wife and baby came down this evening to stay at my grandmas because they heard a bunch of gunshots near them last night. They are also warning to be careful when driving under bridges as they are throwing bricks and rocks at windshields.

Yep, I work in St Paul we had to leave work early yesterday. Protesting was only a few blocks away.
Sad times.

Take care all.

Nick, my son who was in St Paul before was supposed to be there now, he's only not there because of COVID thankfully, we would have been so worried if he was.

I live about 10 miles south of the incident, in the city of Eagan. I did a grocery and Menards run yesterday and saw no protest's or gathering's of any sort. I think while there are protests nationwide, the riots seem to be in the larger core cities. What I do worry about is all the college and high school students, as well as the 40 million people out of work sitting at home with nothing to do and getting frustrated and bored. If they join the protests, it could be a long summer.

Nick, I am near St. Louis , Missouri. I have seen first hand several recent riots of similar caliber. The Ferguson riots being the most notable one that made national news and were used to advance the “agenda’’ of the rioters. Some of the “protesters’ justifiably want American justice to take its course ,but  some gangstas & thugs seek advantage to steal and create mayhem , and some agitators are well funded and organized politically and seek nothing short of the beginnings of a revolution. In St. louis the after effects are still festering today with huge amounts of crime, record homicides, and layering lectures of political correctness and repetitive MSM media excuses. I lived in the most violent of cities in the USA , and just this weekend over 22 people were shot and 4 dead. Drive-by shootins every week, many teens and children shot. Carjacking rampant. Hardly a peep in the local news its so commonplace.
My point is that what happened to that black man by those cops that lead to his death needs to have the highest level of examination and if there is guilt it should be trialed & punished ASAP in accordance with the LAW.
.But these riots have been strategically planned for a long time and are just awaiting the coordinators to light a revolutionary fuse. Be on guard for you and your family... it is going to be a very long and trying summer. The agitators will use this for years to come. They have put out a call to send “organizers” from St. Louis to go to Minn.

Sadly, many of these “protestors” are anarchist who show up for these events. And many come from great distances for the action.

Thankful for the second amendment. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

So far, no serious protests in Dallas.

But, I have my friends Mr. Heckler & Mr. Koch; Mr. Benelli; and Mr. Colt at my side.  Hopefully, none of that is necessary, but we are prepared.

Stay Safe and Sane everyone!

I forgot about you too being so close. Jeez, with so many of us within an hour or so of eachother, we could sure put on a great meet-up if everything wasn't going on right now. By the way, how was your trip to Menards? I've been re-doing a shed and my barn and have found I cannot go to Menards on Thursday or Friday (forget the weekend too!) and have to be in and out before 9am in Rochester Mon-Wed, otherwise it's like Black Friday  :o  I was there a couple Fridays ago, leaving at about 10 am and the line waiting to get in was wrapped around the store  :o

My brother's house is in Robbinsdale (Lowry avenue) and my wife was watching all the videos tonight through Snapchat and seen some stuff happening within a few blocks of his house that he is trying to sell, so he's now worried he won't get his house sold because of all this.

We just heard that there is supposed to be 70,000 protestors coming from Chicago to Minneapolis tomorrow

Nick, I was at the Menards in Burnsville at about 9:30 am on Friday and while it was busy i did not have to wait to get in. I"m within 7 or 8 miles from 3 Menards, 4 Home Depots, a couple of Harbor Freights, a Northern Tool and three Ace hardware stores. While they are all busy, with so many in the area none get overly crowded. One of the benefits of living in a city I guess.

Nick , the rumors will start to spread via Twitter and the fake news media will twist incidents to mitigate their chosen political parties. Confusion will reign for days. We had to guard our homes from rooftops when roving gangs of ‘youths” randomly fired gunshots  and others crept down the streets with life threatening firebombs, or stupid fireworks.
In the darkness its hard to tell if your home is about to be attacked, or if the mobs are just passing by to ransack some cellphone store or beauty supply. It took about 2 days for the agitators to spread further out to random suburbs and small towns. They didn't riot there, but used bullhorns to intimidate those unsuspecting and they chained off byways and some bridges while the cameras rolled.
Stay in direct contact with your family and friends.
The agitators have plans on how to gather their minions via Twitter and cellphones. They have been practicing and they know they likely will not be punished.  When its all over, just like the ringleaders of  Ferguson riots, many will get jobs in TV and internet news as spokespersons for the “resistance” and awokeness. Our social upheaval was heavily subsidized by George Soros.
We saw more accurate reporting  from Breitbart News and The GatewayPundit than the bias on either Fox or CNN.
Look at the 2017 killing of that poor innocent Australian woman Justine Damond by Minneapolis policeman Mohamed Noor to contrast the “agenda” of the rioters.
Blessed are the peacemakers, we all need them so much more each and every day.

Charlie, we have “common” friends; but better be ready & equipped to extinguish fire bombs hitting home after shooting the first shot. We in our neighborhood, decided to have coordinated armed protection neighborhood teams to stop the vandalizing arsonist looting groups from approaching our homes.

Hope you and your families are all ok. What we're seeing on the news doesn't look very good.

Stay safe all.

They must think you need more "protesters" in Minnesota.


Stores in NYC and many other places are getting robbed and completely stripped to bare shelves.
The Rolex store in NYC was broken into and destroyed. The looters got NOTHING. The owner was smart and removed his entire inventory in advance. All they were able to do was break glass display cases and windows.


In South Philadelphia, a neighborhood group of about 50 stood in front of their local Target store. They drew a "line in the sand" and told the looters they were not going to touch their store and they successfully defended it through the night.     
You would think the Minneapolis police would have done the same for their own police station. This goes for the LAPD as well and any other PD that let these low-lives destroy their own station. They all have less than lethal weapons available yet would not use them.

They're too scared that if they use any force they will be the "bad guys" and that is what is wrong with this country. If one of these rioters gets shot or killed, can you imagine how much more anger there would be towards the police. We had one tanker truck drive into a crowd blocking off the road yesterday, unfortunately he slowed down and got beat up and later arrested. I have never been so annoyed than trying to drive down the road only to be stuck parked because of abunch of idiots standing in the middle of the road. MN has been having a curfew the last few nights and it took them more than an hour past curfew to even begin arresting the protestors. A cousin of mine had the dumpster lit on fire at his apartment Saturday night. There's a reason I avoid the Twin cities area as much as possible. Gotta say I had no problem with Trump's tweet "When the looting starts, the shooting starts"
