[minneapolis, political violence]
latest #14
I'm in the Cities for a convention today but we are miles from anywhere the spree shooter's manifesto threatened to hit
we are all okay, or at least, as okay as you can feel when someone is murdering politicians in your hometown
no reason to believe a proximate threat to our personal safety exists, anyway
The big protest in St. Paul is still going on, and I'm proud of all these folks for that even if it is more dangerous than it was before.
People are all going "DUDE WAS APPOINTED TO A BOARD BY WALZ HE HIS MAN" and I'm like "you know you can just go to the government website and sign up for whatever fuckin' board you want right"
I mean to be fair most folks don't but that's absolutely the case
Anyway Ellison is still speaking <3
im glad you're safe! jfc what a wild ass situation
... fuck. looked up the assassinated politicians' faces & realized I doorknocked for one of them in 2016
I was working for the Coordinated Campaign, not their campaigns, so that would have been true of dozens of people
Yeah, it's all awful. Thankfully the dumbass clearly didn't think things THAT through because he did it after end of session.
