Guilty admission
I go to a site that has a ton of RWNJ....but I love the site because it covers all sorts of topics that I love to read about or engage in. Not all are nut jobs....but most are. I went there tonight and there is not one thread about the hearings other than a general thread that people were posting in that were watching. Kind of like we get here. You could hear a pin drop in there. They are freaked out.

Some office workers in downtown Minneapolis have already been told not to come to work during the weekslong trial because of heavy security. The National Guard will be deployed, transforming the city center into a military zone, with Humvees and armed soldiers monitoring checkpoints. In his recent budget proposal, Gov. Tim Walz included a special $4.2 million item for security during the trial, as well as a $35 million fund to reimburse local law enforcement agencies that may be called upon to quell unrest.
This is the most famous police brutality prosecution in the history of the United States, said Paul Butler, a former prosecutor who is a professor at Georgetown University and an authority on police brutality.
