Turning the military on citizens.

Attempting to rig elections.

Toying with the idea of declaring martial law.

Attacking political enemies and punishing those who speak out.

If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

Someone started a fire in the parking lot dumpster area of Anchor Fish & Chips this weekend (near by in Ward 3). Glad you are organizing education and response in Ward 1.

Dayne St. Clair posts 12 saves tonight for #mnufc, coming up big on several occasions in a 3-1 win at San Diego.

Unfortunate to lose the clean sheet just before full-time, but St. Clair clears double-digits for the second time in two years.
