Last weekend, a group of “anarchists” attacked a pro-Trump rally at the Minnesota State Capitol. \u00a0 \u00a0Thugs wearing helmets and masks sucker-punched and kicked unsuspecting peaceful demonstrators, and in one case sprayed mace into a crowd of people.<\/p>\n

It was not a spontaneous event; they were quite obviously organized, equipped, and had planned for the event.<\/a><\/p>\n

They sprayed what was described as “Bear Mace” into a crowd of unsuspecting people – which can easily be a lethal weapon for people with respiratory conditions. \u00a0 There were six arrests.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The entire fracas was caught on film, in front of dozens of witnesses. \u00a0There is not problem showing the violence, brutality and intent of the event.<\/p>\n

No matter. \u00a0They are aligned with the left against the right. \u00a0And in Saint Paul, that’s license to block streets, clog freeways…<\/p>\n

…and now, to physically attack people with potentially lethal force. \u00a0 Ramsey County has declined to charge the arrested protesters<\/a> – four boys and two girls – with anything.<\/p>\n

Monday, the Ramsey County Attorney\u2019s Office said there were insufficient facts to prove felony-level riot. The attorney\u2019s office said State Patrol has presented the case to the St. Paul City Attorney\u2019s Office for consideration of misdemeanor charges.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

That is bullshit, stacked high and deep.<\/p>\n

If it were a bunch of rednecks from Isanti County who’d maced the “Womens’ March” a couple weeks ago, they’d still be in jail.<\/p>\n

Look at the boys and girls who were arrested. \u00a0Check out the names: \u00a0Anton. \u00a0Isabell. \u00a0Linwood. \u00a0Those are upper-middle-class white kid names. \u00a0Breck School names. \u00a0Names that drive Subarus until they get a Volvo. \u00a0Names like the children of John Choi’s law school classmates and Chris Coleman’s Crocus Hill and Kenwood cronies\u00a0have.<\/p>\n

It’s the special, deluxe, “for progressives only” justice, part of the “progressives only” school, university, public sector union and non-profit parallel universe of power and privilege that the Big Left in Minnesota gets.<\/p>\n

UPDATE: \u00a0I’ve seen reports that Linwood Kaine is the son of Hillary Clinton’s VP candidate.<\/p>\n

Well, I’m gonna guess there were some lawyers involved, huh?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
