Minnesota
Related: About this forumSo Proud!
I'm miles away from downtown Minneapolis and due to my health I am forced to watch coverage on television.
Let me say how proud I am of my fellow citizens who have taken to the streets and the airport. Minnesota is a special place. Minnesota "Nice" is a real thing. Our demonstrations show that Minnesota values are important. People are in the streets because our government is not respecting due process. They recognize that ICE is here to intimidate not to act within the law.
To those Minnesotans who are outstate and have "not good" thoughts about Minneapolis and St. Paul, you should know that these wonderful people in Minneapolis would come to your aid too. The Twin Cities have a strong moral compass.
Once again, I'm so proud.
