Downtown’s Back, Baybee! (Part II)

Close on the news that two of downtown Minneapolis is nicer office towers are going up for auction, to avoid foreclosure?

The Hilton, one of downtown‘s premier hotels, and site of the NARN‘s first big surprise triumph (the 2004 debate party between George Bush and John Kerry, where we expected and planned for 100 attendees, and got more like 700)

Yeah, things are looking up downtown, aren’t they?

  1. Hey, I got an idea to revitalize downtown.

    Why not build bleachers in the Minneapolis City Council chambers and charge tourists to watch the freak show!

  2. A fella, a quick fella might look at Rochester and Duluth and think “Hey, those other cities aren’t crumbling like this…what’s up with Minneapolis?”

    He might look at the leadership and think “Huh…they don’t have a negro tranny in charge, but they’re controlled by low IQ, leftist assholes, too.”

    He might think “Minneapolis has ‘The People’s Stadium’. Those other cities don’t have a People’s Stadium. Why aren’t they empty?”

    Then the fella, being a quick fella, might look at the demographics of those cities and think “Ahh, there it is.”

  3. Hey you guys! Don’t forget my old hometown –St. Paul. They usually take their cues from the city across the river but this time city leaders came up with a bad idea attack all on their own! They want to impose…….. reparations. i can’t wait until the reparations commission (loaded up with Carter’s hommies, natch) or city council starts to actually define what it means to be black!! One drop rule anyone? Fun all around. And just wait until the Hmong, Somalis and other immigrant groups get a load of the fact that they have to pay reparations when they were not even around during the founding of America. I’d get out of there Mitch.

    I’m half Viking and 1/4 lowland Scots white trash.

    I’ve spent a long time here. I was here first.

    I may walk away someday. Damned if I’m gonna run.

    Joe Biden urges you to pull up stakes, leave all your stuff behind, and strategically retreat.

  6. MBerg, why stay where you are not wanted?
    At some point the value you get from living in the Twin Cities is going to be less than the expense. There is a strong tradition of Scandinavian and Scots frugality overcoming Scandinavian and Scots truculence.

  7. mitch built his castle in a swamp called st paul
    it sank into the swamp
    he built another one near a swamp called frogtown
    it sank into the swamp
    he built his third one in a swamp called midway
    three years ago midway burned down fell over and sank into the swamp
    but the fourth one stayed up

    St. Paul City Council approves unusual 2023 city budget, tax levy hike of nearly 15 percent

    The St. Paul City Council also found funding to back a new pool of substitute workers for the short-staffed public library system and hire a staffer for a new historical reparations commission.

    15% lol And mind you, that’s just the city…can’t wait to see what the county and schools want.

    Well, no one said reparations would be cheap. Pay up, White Supremacist!

  9. I read somewhere, yesterday, that California, a state which never had slavery, and whose citizens never owned slaves is fixin’ to pay their blacks, who were never slaves, sweet reparations, too.

    lol…I love that. And I’m sure that their 42% Mexican and 21% Asian populations will love it too!

  10. Gotta wonder with all this sweet reparations cash being floated if there’s going to be a mechanism to prevent multiple dipping. Imagine, just move from state to state to collect your rewards.

  11. Mitch, i am a neanderthal and thus a slow learner but even I came to realize that St. Paul and MN are losing propositions. I mean, how many times can you be beaten down not only by the Dems but the Repubs as well???

  12. It will be interesting to see if this rat bastard gets shown the door. I won’t hold my breath waiting, but if I was paying $40k per year to send my kid to a private school, I’d be in the administration office raising hell. After all, if I wanted my adolescent daughter to learn about perverted sex from perverts, I could send her to public screwels for far less money.

    Emery obviously never served and although Paddywhacker claims he did, I doubt it.

  13. NW, isn’t Marshall’s motto “Dress for less”?

    How much less can it be if it’s shoplifted?

    I detect RAYYYYCISM here. And antisemitism too, probably.
