With the popular resistance movement having pushed the out of control ICE secret army out (Trump backed down/failed/retreated) we truly have now... a Better Minneapolis! Write on.
It seems this post gets more socialistic each week. Why would the Feds pay us money for displacement? We created our own law by declaring ourselves a "sanctuary", something we did not have the legal right to do. "Sanctuary" is a powerful word and means more to those with limited language and education. It was a carefully chosen word meant to make us look good and maybe put us on the map as a destination as a caregiver. As for "fascism" maybe we should be looking at our response to the Feds, "watchers", "observers", be sure to only record the enemy for an accurate record of history. How about the doxing of federal officers and their families, it's extremely brazen, agressive and is an extremely dangerous precedent for any future government worker or elected politician. Some of the paid outside agitators activities are not helping anything either, the whistles, instructional pamphlets and classes have created a perfect storm for chaos, damage and injury. Yet we only see the other side as childish and even evil, often times the evil is closer than most want to admit. The base anger and hate directed at Trump that everyone wakes up with these days is tainting everything and hate always does. We are so angry that we forget to stop, access and reevaluate if necessary. We are so sure we are right that we no longer listen, yet we believe wholeheartedly that we are the considerate and caring party.
