I can think of 2 movies that could be predicting the future. Idiocracy and The Purge.

There is just no way to sugar coat what they want to do to us.

Truthfully, I'm not a fan of organized religion anyway, but Islam is an evil ideology that really has no place in my world. Just my .02..

Cops - now mostly millenials - don't realize the power they have. The decent people in the communities will not allow pols to push cops beyond their limit. The Blue Flu would only be necessary for about 3-4 days before they would be begging the cops to come back. Who else would police the community while the cops are recuperating and all hell is breaking loose.


The SWAT cops in Buffalo all resigned from that assignment after two cops are about to be sacrificed for community appeasement.

The new recruits for the "Rebuilt" police force have reported for duty.

Well their city council voted to disband the police for today and move to community policing or some shit. No more traffic stops just use cameras is one point of theirs.
It is veto proof from Mayor it said and they want it gone completely so cannot be rebuilt by next council.
If you have property in Minneapolis you might want to get out now.

Sounds like a new social experiment. Will they wear brown shirts?

We live in the Twin Cities burbs ... have avoided downtown MPLS for awhile ... used to be a great destination for bars and restaurants - no longer - you are taking your life in your hands.

Shouldn't be a problem, just make sure and leave the Vette at home and only drive your technical into Minneapolis, even better in a formation with a few other technicals, Rat Patrol style. Go in hard, get your business done, and withdraw rapidly.

The only way to reduce arrests is for there to be less crime.
Or, is the city council going to redefine what is considered a crime or not

All I can say is the end result will be less of certain things... businesses and Law Abiding Citizens hanging around there.

Minneapolis will become the next Baltimore.

What? It's diverse and diversity is strength! Perhaps you need to check your white privilege? Now put your mask back on, get in your car and drive to downtown MPLS, leave the doors unlocked because courtesy, and kneel before your betters.

Who the fuq thinks this is even a plausible idea ? I see all the , nah screw it. Their chickens will come home to roost soon enough if they get their way. Fuggers will be begging for someone to save them.

I see a big dose of Karma coming to them very soon and it will be well deserved. Bonus points for it happening to the group that voted to do this.

Are crime rates based on calls to the police and reports made by the police? I think I see the method in their madness. No police, translates to a zero crime rate.

Well, if there are no police, who will arrest anyone?



They want to get rid of the police. Stop paying property taxes. There won't be any police to come arrest you or try to get the money. Why would any business want to stay where there is no Law Enforcement?
