I knew what was going to be in the article before I read it. It didn't take long for them to get to the reason why. Also, no other interviews were reported or given except for Awed.

>“At the end of the day, everybody wants to feel safe, and safety is a priority for all communities,” Awed said. “And we need more officers. Unfortunately, this policy … has really pit neighborhoods against each other.”

>Awed said that the poorer neighborhoods have to find creative ways to feel safe, especially when more diverse neighborhoods are the ones that are seeing the most increase in violence and shootings in the city.

I was going to copy/paste snippets and comment, but there were so many, I didn't have time to do it justice. I'll cut to the chase: repercussions are a bitch.

It wouldn't surprise me one bit if there's many "crowd funding" for patrols also support/ed BLM.

The government should be worried about this because next thing you know, people will do things like crowdfund roads, schools, military and so on completely bypassing the need for government.

People could come to the conclusion that government is totally unnecessary.

They would be better off hiring decent private security considering the state and usefulness of todays woke cops.

Over the past year, the Minneapolis Police Department crime data report reflects that burglaries are up 6%, thefts are up 31% and carjacking are up 14%.

So like 45%, 90%, and 63% and all by diverse doctors and lawyers.

Cedarside Community Council Executive Director AJ Awed joined “Morning in America” to explain why he believes the initiative is being misused and could be redesigned for a greater purpose.

Are off duty cops cheaper than private armed security? I have never hired either.

Am guessing yes as they don't have business overhead that a security firm would.
