    Minneapolis Mayor Betsy Hodges shouted down by protesters during Harteau presser

    The video tells it all.

    There are people in our country who, while they have righteous anger, lose any respect from me when they gather like a lynch mob to take over our city streets, political officials' offices, and public meetings inanact of anarchy and chaos.

    Maybe these folks had a good reason for taking on the mayor, but they are OUT OF ORDER when they do what they did on this evening. I would probably be an ardent supporter of these causes, but doing what they did tonight is not respectful, but rather anarchy in its infancy stages.

    What do you think about their article and the chaotic way these people shut down a public meeting? Is this what America is becoming? A country of loud mouth, foul speaking,disrespectful ANARCHISTS?

    There are established ways to clean up corruption in city hall. There are Constitutionally established procedures that allow us to drain the swamp,.and it is called ELECTIONS. Do you agree?

    I cannot find anything anywhere in your link that would indicate that the protesters were Paid Anarchists. Adding a bit of spin, eh?

    Since the victim was white and the shooter was black I thought there wasn't supposed to be any violent protests.

    RD2, with the Castillo killing and this one, the people of Minneapolis have good reason to be ticked off by officials who want to carry on business as usual.

    Not seeing anything about a paid anarchist. Police chiefs are not elected in Minneapolis.

    This may have been a rainbow coalition thing--the police chief was having an identity crisis--she got canned. The plot thickens.

    Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

    They are indeed paid anarchists (from an anonymous source - its our turn now to make this claim).

    In reality this has nothing to do with politics this is part of the marxist strategy to overthrow the existing government. They are the traitors, they are committing treason.

    My opinion of course.

    Repeat. Everyone is entitled to my opinion.

    Serious question. You are joking, right? I only ask because if not, I would really like to see who is reporting that.

    A handful of protesters disrupt a press conference by the mayor of Minneapolis for 5 minutes and you claim these are paid Marxist traitors bent on overthrowing the government!

    Could you get any dafter?

    Interesting that you think Donald Trump Jr. meeting with a Russian spy looking for dirt on Hillary is not treason but protesters delaying a press conference is treason.

    I think the history of disruption during the campaign of 2016 leads me to think this could also be a paid bunch setting about to disrupt the process again. Starting over in small government now that the national issue has been decided and Trump is president.
    Soros was found to have funded Occupy Wall street as well as Black Lives Matter. He even paid people to disrupt Trump campaign rallies.
    There's a movement in place now that even Hillary Clinton said she was proud to be member of; the resistance. (to Trump's presidency). It isn't impossible angry protests at political rallies could be funded by agenda driven persons.
    It's America. Freedom of speech. Freedom to be a knucklehead screeching. :X3

    It was a small vocal group of leftists that were angry their lesbian chief of police was asked to resign. Nothing more.

    These are cut from the same cloth as the commie black uniformed/masked thugs who riot everywhere else - Berkeley...

    Could you get any more like an Alinsky clone?

    Interesting that you consistently side with the progressive leftist.

    Interesting that when I point out hypocrisy on the right I am called a leftist.

    Seems like you thought I insulted you. (?) I assure you that I did not. I asked if you were joking and concluded, because of your answer, that you were.

    Let history show that the overthrowing of the US government to communism began at a small protest of a mayoral press conference in Minneapolis on July 21, 2017.
