(98,883 posts)1. I assume you are referring to Minneapolis. This should not be a surprise since the Governor made it
clear they would not tolerate a violation of the curfew
I think the violent protesters are not only hurting it for the peaceful protesters, but potentially f**king it up for the general election
I wonder how many of those violent protesters are going to vote

...on the Brooklyn Bridge, Church & Bedford near Prospect Park.
Carroll Gardens should be safe.
