My friend Dennis managed to hang onto our food as we ran. I didn’t know how bad it was until I saw CNN this morning. There was quite a few people on the sidewalk on both sides of the street. Dennis thought it was fireworks. I knew it was gunshots immediately but had no idea it was that bad. Good thing they're defunding the cops.....let the community conflict resolution counselors handle it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought you lived in Wisc anyway? Been down that way a few times. Was a few cool bars that had great bands at times. Hennepin ave is nothing short of a miracle. The place was a crime ridden shithole back in the “70’s and “80’s. A good friend of mine was murdered on the ave in “78. He had his head caved in with a baseball bat. I do live in Wisconsin. My family lives in Minneapolis and surrounding suburbs. I was there for Father’s Day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fine with me. Minneapolis cops are corrupt pieces of shit. That force has been a mess for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racer254 Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 This is just amazing. A defender of BLM, ANTIFA, protests et al. Goes to an upscale white hipster neighborhood and gets scared when the very movement he is defending causes issues. I wonder why the word "karma" hasn't been used yet about that post. LOL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F3600 Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 This one is interesting to me on a couple of fronts. Our own CE angle with a Spin in the middle of the action. Reports now saying 40-50 shots fired potentially. 3 different types of shell casings found, so multiple shooters. Witnesses said they started in the center of the 2900 block sidewalk area, then moved out into the street shooting towards the crowds that were fleeing on both sides of the street. Still zero public reporting on the description of the suspects which seems pretty odd considering the proximity and the fact that street is lite up very well. Also, I don't think its a stretch to say it was a purposeful targeting of an upscale, white gathering area, at 12:37am, close to closing of many of the businesses with patrons moving out onto the streets. But none of the papers or TV reports are asking any of these questions and no comment sections in the papers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have snub 38, a 13 round 9 mil, but now I think I'm gonna; start packin', the S&W mod. 19 Combat Magnum, 6" bbl, factory target trigger, factory target hammer, factory target stocks. 168 gr. federal Hollow-points. Chances are somebody would go down, and it wouldn't be me. Just sayin'. Desperate times demand desperate measures. The USA is imploding. No one is immune from danger, no one. I’d leave that modified smith at home. You carry that in public and use it, and you will go down in court. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are lying by omission because they don't want you to know. If there is no description of the perps it usually means they are non-white...

Both sides of the street were absolutely packed with people. We had rounded the corner when the shooting started. I can’t say that we were right in the middle of it. Like I said, I didn’t know that it involved so many people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not modified. I wouldn't carry it anyway, it's too heavy. However, in a shoot-out, that's the one I wish I had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
