    Democrats still think being unarmed and asking politely will make Republicans listen. You also dont realize cop demographic also mostly filled with people who voted Republican and want this shit happening.

        Clearly she should’ve shot at them, got their armor, and gotten herself plus her children and anyone else in the building or even behind the building killed.

        Where’s the state national guard? I know they’re on standby, this is when they start taking action. I get that Walz is afraid of where this will lead but that’s on the administration, not him.

            The reason I asked about them was because Walz ordered them in standby after Wednesday, so I’m not sure why they’re still standing by

              To prevent rioting or protests that morph into violent clashes leading to threats to the local population.


              Side note, a helicopter has been I hovering a couple miles north of my house for the last 10 min. Can’t see him but I can hear them…
