For years, Minneapolis wanted to be a big city in the worst way.
Well, it got its wish.
It is now a big city, and in exactly the worst way, run by a cabal of progressive socialists experimenting with its citizens' very lives. We have watched this tragic truth unfold before our eyes once again.
Justine Damond, an Australian woman, was shot by Mohamed Noor, the policeman she had summoned to a possible crime scene. He is a rookie with questionable experience. Police Chief Janee Harteau, who filed discrimination lawsuits against the city in the past, has resigned while the Mayor, Betsy Hodges, refuses to.
The dead woman may have died from a gunshot, but make no mistake about it; she was killed by political correctness.

This socialist-run hell hole of political correctness is responsible for there being a young, progressive female mayor and a lesbian police chief who selected a Somali for the police force simply because he fit the ethnic and cultural profile she wanted in an attempt to demonstrate the inclusiveness their failed social experiment calls for.
Now Mayor Hodges wants to appoint a new chief, saying he "knows how to communicate," as if a lack of communication was responsible for the woman's death.
Noor was no more qualified to be a policeman than a mayor who thinks communicating with criminals is going to stop them. Officer Noor claimed that he was startled by a loud noise just before he shot Damond. If that's how well unqualified candidates are trained, remind me to never call the Minneapolis police during a thunderstorm.
How many more American cities must the progressive socialists destroy?
