So, I guess its another case of "it doesn't matter what the facts are" there is going to be a riot and someone is going to pay.

The good news is that it isn't 70 degrees and sunny outside or Minneapolis would already be burning. I worry for the people who live and work in Minneapolis. I hope there is some leadership on the ground that can keep it all on perspective.

Heard bicycle Betsy weigh in; She doesn't know if she's on foot or horseback. And it sounds like she's still hoping the Feds will get the cops on a civil rights charge. Meanwhile the hood is about to get ransacked

Comments at the end of one of the articles I read this afternoon had basically the same take on it. He said they ought to rename the group FDM, for Facts Don't Matter. If you ask me, he pretty much hit the nail right on the head with that assessment.

Have to pay a little respect to Mike Freeman in all of this. The guy took all the responsibility for the decision on this himself. He decided no grand jury, reviewed all of the facts, and made a decision. Then stood up there in front of a skeptical audience and explained his decision while making no apologies for it.
