Armed citizens guard stores amid looting in Minneapolis: report
2020-05-28
[FoxNews]
Posted by:Skidmark

#26  Nothing says Social Justice like a nice new Sony 65" 4K TV looted from Target, and setting fire to the local auto parts shop.

Lesson learned - a lot of local folks of color have taken up arms to protect their businesses. I wonder if they might reconsider the second amendment and which party kept the government from seizing their firearms... Someone ought to run an ad.

#25  Armed rednecks included alot of people from Africa, Indonesia, Paki, India, etc.

My sister-in-law was travelling to some African country, and we looked it up online. Primary crops are tobacco and corn, poor infrastructure...

Oh, like Kentucky!

#24  So MSM has gotten what they wanted when they first started reporting this story. And, of course, OrangeManBad.

#23  One thing I like about where I live in Texas, the rioters wouldn't come anywhere near our neighborhoods. Armed rednecks* would outnumber them 50 to 1.

* Armed rednecks included alot of people from Africa, Indonesia, Paki, India, etc. My neighbors are from around the world but the vast majority have full Texan.

Ah, I was going with Just Another Day in the Neighborhood.

If y'all have a problem with looters, get yourself some roof-Koreans. Or a Texas Ranger.

#21  Fox news Martha MacCallum had a story on the follies in Minneapolis last evening. Footage running behind MaCallum showed a protester waving a "Fuc* Trump" sign.

Link yesterday had all the normal Red Carpet Guests.

Girlfriend had scabies bigger than the white girl crying on her shoulder.

One had a sign, something like, "Let us protest like we are armed white males." or something.

#19  /\ delusional people...

Do you mean like democrats ?

#18  Well, B., surely very many delusional people out there also believe Trump is a fault for this. Trump surely wishes he could have been there himself, personally putting his left knee on the neck of that victim.

Appears to be in a league of the politically butthurt and like minded.

"Why can't we all just get along?"

#10  The morning news is calling the armed folks guarding their properties 'Vigilantes'.

Words fail...

#9  Not keeping their social distance? Is the governor going to send in the National Guard to enforce that?

#8  Even if the rioters were apprehended (which they likely won't be), Target would decline to press charges. Shrinkage is already built in to the marketing plan and price point.
