I only know what I hear. So we all sift through what we’ve heard to get to what we know. Which we may never know.
I just wish we could focus on the three still not charged. That would be some of the Justice folks could start to feel. The longer they go uncharged the worse the fever.

Walking back my earlier post: the Minneapolis Police Chief was wrong. [View all] nolabear May 2020 OP

I saw something saying it was about 20% Minneapolis folks and 80% outsiders Thomas Hurt May 2020 #1

I thought is was the majority. Jamastiene May 2020 #2

Most of the protesters are from Minnesota. LisaL May 2020 #8

It's not "all" but apparently it's 80%. LisaM May 2020 #3

Not all, and not 80 % either. LisaL May 2020 #6

I thought I heard 80% of those ARRESTED were from outside. 🤷🏼‍♀️ LakeArenal May 2020 #4

Only it's not accurate. LisaL May 2020 #5

Yes that's what he got wrong. Said his info was incorrect. nolabear May 2020 #9

Sounds like some wanted to portray it as being an outside event when it wasn't. LisaL May 2020 #10

Maybe. Or just trying to get info out so fast you believe rumors. nolabear May 2020 #12

It just seems to me folks are mixing up protestors with those arrested. LakeArenal May 2020 #14

that's what i heard from a presser earlier this morning n/t orleans May 2020 #16

DAng, we can't rely on info about the virus or arrested protestors. Who woulda thunk? abqtommy May 2020 #11

Wonder if all those who posted it as fact are going to admit they were wrong too MichMan May 2020 #13

I hope the DA or police chief brings in the other 2 cops and arrest FloridaBlues May 2020 #15
