This is the type of stupid up there with the celebs singing that we’re all in this together to the tune of John Lennon’s “Imagine” and burning down their own neighborhoods post-George “Fentanyl” Floyd
‘Enough Is Enough’: Hundreds of Minnesota Businesses Take Stand Against ICE
A temperature of around minus 10 degrees on Friday did little to slow protests around the Twin Cities, with businesses closing, workers and students staying home, and demonstrators demanding that federal immigration agents depart.
The general strike across many businesses and industries was the most widespread protest since federal immigration agents arrived more than six weeks ago to conduct sweeps that have been cheered by some and sparked outrage in others.
“It’s tense and emotional, and folks are hurting,” said Bishop Dwayne Royster, the executive director of Faith in Action, which helped organize the effort. Minnesotans, he said, are demonstrating “deep resilience and willingness to stand together in ways I haven’t seen folks do in a very long time.”
It wasn’t just Minnesotans, however, on Friday who came out. Hundreds demonstrated at the Minneapolis-St. Paul Airport, some from as far away as New York, flitting in and out of one of its terminals, trying to stay warm.
How are folks hurting? Does arresting illegal alien rapists, murderers, and child molesters hurt them?
In neighborhoods around Minneapolis, many businesses and shops sat empty, with some posting signs in their windows expressing solidarity,
In St. Paul, Roots Roasting had an orange sign announcing their closure. “General strike,” it read. “No work, no school, no shopping, ICE out.”
Down the street, Spyhouse Coffee, part of a local chain, had a handwritten sign announcing its closure to “stand in solidarity with our community and other businesses.” The same was true for just about every coffee mainstay in the Twin Cities.
So, let me get this straight: the dipshits are protesting in favor of illegal aliens by not working, closing their own business, stopping commerce in a very liberal city? Who do they think they’re hurting? Do they understand they’re screwing themselves?
100 clergy arrested at airport protest as Minnesotans strike against ICE
Roughly 100 clergy were arrested without incident during a protest against deportation flights at Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport on Friday, as an economic protest of the Trump administration’s immigration operations in Minnesota shuttered hundreds of businesses in the Twin Cities.
Organizers of the action, dubbed ICE Out of Minnesota: Day of Truth and Freedom, have called for residents to boycott work, school and shopping. The goal, said Ruth Kashmark, who closed her bar Friday to participate, is to demonstrate that “this is what the world’s going to look like if you take our hardworking neighbors away.”
These same clergy who are protecting illegal alien criminals certainly do not seem to stand up for Christian principles much. Would they do this to denounce abortion on demand?
In the USA abortion polls show 60% of women want legal abortion, versus 40% men.
Israel has legal abortion usually covered by their national dingle payer health plan
In the Bible abortion is considered a minor transgression, with a trifling fine of 2 shekels paid to the father.
The Torah teaches that a fetus is in fact not a human with a soul, that only occurs when the first breathe is taken outside of the mother. This was traditionally called “the Quickening”
Islam abhors abortion.
Wacko climate change deniers say this cold snap is in fact proof of no global warming. cult Leader Trump claims to be much smarter than “scientists”
Johnny-they aren’t saying no global warming, they’re saying there’s no verifiable evidence this cold snap was caused by global warming.
And Johnny-no one denies that the climate is changing, so please explain the “wacko” label
Jill,
Teach calls all those he disagrees with as Wackos.
Except in this case there’s really no disagreement, because as said, no one denies the climate is changing
Not haha funny but so predictable.
Coordinated effort to control the narrative. Every communist activist knows they need to do this. When Yugoslavia fell apart, each faction rolled to seize mass media first.
The perfesser thrives on conspiracies.
BTW, what faction is securing control of the media today? Da billionaires!!
Bezos WaPo, Ellison CBS/CNN, Murdoch (FOX et al), Zuck (Meta etc), Musk (twitter etc), trump (“truth” Social)…
In a plutocracy, the super-wealthy control the levers of government, elections (hello Citizens United!) AND the media.
Let’s hope our plutocrats are kind.
BTW, WHO is paying the thousands of Minnesota protesters?
We taxpayers are paying ICE/DHS to abuse 5 yr old kids, nurses, gardeners and teachers.
But who pays the protesters? Just another conspiracy tale.
Don’t like the facts! Invent “alternative facts”!!
People who believe in magic, miracles, gods, spirits and demons feel anything is possible!!!
Except men getting pregnant…
