    Not that I'm in the mood to defend Donald Trump or Republicans these days but this CNN reporter and crew got arrested in a blue state in a bluer city. Which is a sad commentary on its own.

    As heinous as the incident was, it doesn't rise to the level of first-degree murder. The family and protesters are going to have to live with that, unless they want to answer a lynching with a lynching.

    MN is not as blue as in the past.

    It wasn't the mpls pd who arrested the reporter, but look up the head of their union, Bob Kroll.

    Hardcore Trumper, allegations of white supremacy and more.

    I don't know what the bar is set at for first-degree. Second may be a stretch based on the Noor case.

    They will not lower the charges and plea this out.

    Man, that really does not look like someone who wants to show their race.

    Honestly, the Umbrella guy really worries me.

    Knee on the neck is a quick decision. Smashing windows is premeditated Watchmen type bull shit. Cyclops like shit.

    You need a grand jury for first degree in Minnesota.
