What are we going to do about it?

I can hardly contain my anger and outrage about the killing of an innocent woman in Minneapolis by government officers.

If you have ever been to Minneapolis you know that it is a peaceful, clean and healthy city, a good place to raise a family. ICE had no business even being there. Their stated rationalization for their invasion of this fair city is a sham. They are there because the man in the white house hates โ€œblueโ€ states that voted against him, and Tim Waltz in particular.

This was a murder no matter how you spin it.

Hereโ€™s the thing! If you think this canโ€™t happen here, you are mistaken. One could argue that this was bound to happen. Think about it. If you arm a bunch of untrained random men, tell them they are on a mission to go after โ€œanimals and rapists” and tell them that anyone who gets in their way is the enemy. This shooting is a direct and predictable result.

Ok, now what are we going to do about it?
