Now the Narrative of Minnesota Riots Being the Result of Out-Of-State Agitators is Unravelling
 [RedState] For some time now we have been getting fed the regular message that these violent riots we are witnessing in Minneapolis, and abroad, are not what they appear. The leaders and experts, eager to transfer blame, have been making the statements that the bad agents who are provoking violence are from outside their area. The attempt to avoid responsibility for the unraveling protests and how leadership allowed destruction, even the overthrow of a police precinct, is now facing an uncomfortable reality.It is appearing that most of the perpetrators are actually locals. As the looting and violence that had erupted this week on the streets of Minneapolis spread out to dozens of cities across the country the local politicians struggled to both make sense of things and sound competent. There is an effort to push the narrative of oppression while at the same time excusing responsibility from the very leadership trying to show support. They want to claim institutional racism while refusing to look into their very institutions provoking the strife. The aftermath in Minnesota has the local politicians desperate to explain away how they lost control of their communities by claiming they were overrun by outside professional anarchy groups. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey made this claim: We are now confronting white supremacists, members of organized crime, out of state instigators, and possibly even foreign actors to destroy and destabilize our city and our region. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz gave a press conference yesterday where he explained his delayed call for National Guard support was that he recently suspected that the riots were being provoked by white supremacists and drug cartels from out of state. Partner Mayor Melvin Carter, from the city of Saint Paul declared that ’’Every single person we arrested last night, I’m told, was from out of state.’’ State Attorney General Keith Ellison has also echoed this storyline. These are your brownshirts. You can't hide it anymore. These are what the left has been pushing for since at least 1996. Posted by: DarthVader 2020-06-01 |
