Michigan DU'ers.

Rumors of unrest in Flint tonite. Relative said store in that area they work at is closing early due to the rumor.

I do not know of any more information, except if you are in that area be very careful and vigilant. Would not surprise me if white supremacists will be involved. Just like MN.

Be safe and careful.

Call themselves Sons Of Liberty. My name is more apt.

Though noting that the original Sons of Liberty worked to destroy the established government also.

The Genesee County sheriff made a smart move and talked and marched with the protestors.

Dialogue, not violence is the answer.
