This is what real leadership looks like. Take notes. You took an oath to uphold the Constitution. Do your job!

@mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social @governorwalz.mn.gov imagine how much community trust could be built if LEOs acted like this instead of only showing up with armored vehicles and riot gear. Imagine how much stronger we would be if the community could trust local law enforcement.

@mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social @governorwalz.mn.gov If state & regional LEOs had been activated earlier to protect your people it would have gone a long way to rebuild community trust & their arrival today would have been met w/ cheers. Instead, the only time they show up is to act against your people

@mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social

"We have requested mutual aid from the Minnesota State patrol & from all our local & county regional partners."

So you actually did have the capacity to act to protect your people but chose to wait until somebody got killed?

"We must all fear evil men. But there is another kind of evil that we must fear most, and that is the indifference of good men"

@governorwalz.mn.gov @mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social You asked your citizens to film. Now they're getting shot for filming.

Just so we know, what's the magic number of constituents killed before you do something?

@mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social "How many more lives need to be lost..."

That's what we've been asking this whole time! Is there some magic number of constituents murdered before you decide to actually act? Because strongly worded statements obviously aren't working.

@mayorher.bsky.social @mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social @governorwalz.mn.gov When can we expect a response to the rampant lawlessness affecting your constituents? The courts have confirmed what we already knew. Is this what you've been waiting for? Will we see some action now?

@governorwalz.mn.gov So uh, I know you're busy but when you get a moment could you do something about this occupation? If your hands are tied or if you're working on a plan, share that with your people. Because your constituents need you & the feeling on the ground is that you're not doing anything.

@mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social @governorwalz.mn.gov @mayorher.bsky.social Where are our LEOs? Not to engage ice, but body cams, riot shields, & gas masks should be standing before legal prosters. This will support future lawsuits, counteract the narrative that we are violent, & rebuild community trust.

@minneapolismn.gov @mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social @governorwalz.mn.gov Just so we know, how bad does it have to get before you actually do something? Like is there some magic number of your citizens killed or children put in the hospital that you're waiting for?

@mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social @governorwalz.mn.gov Cops with riot gear could be doing some protecting & serving about now. Not even asking them to engage, just form a protective line & do their job. Thousands of cops deployed against us after they killed Floyd, where are they now when actually needed?

@governorwalz.mn.gov @mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social If you protected your people you wouldn't need to protect your buildings. When your citizens are being attacked the resources of MN should be protecting them. Send those cops w/ riot shields and gas masks to stand with your people, not against them.
