Democrat Gov. Walz Ignored Minneapolis Rioters - Used Violence Against Law-Abiding Citizens

During the George Floyd riots, Democrat Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota had instituted an 8 p.m. curfew. Floyd died on May 25, 2020 and the riots started on May 26, 2020. The Minneapolis mayor asked Walz to send in the National Guard on the 27th, but Walz did not issue the order until after 9 pm on the 28th.

Since National Guard members live all over the state, it took hours for them to arrive and could not be deployed until late into the night. The governor's 19-year-old daughter warned the rioters that it would take hours for the National Guard to arrive. Interesting how she had knowledge of Minnesota government business in real time.

Walz never bothered to talk to the Minneapolis police to get real time information during the riots.

The riots continued through May 29th... 4 long days for the people of Minneapolis.

This video was filmed on the evening of May 30th by a family standing on their front porch. Walz was clearly more determined to use the Minneapolis police and Minnesota National Guard to incite fear in Minneapolis residents living miles from the riot area than in arresting and prosecuting those who carried out the riots. Perhaps he was embarrassed at his failure to immediately put a stop to the riots and was determined to "prove" his toughness.

People died during the riots and over $500 million in damaged and destroyed building was done. More than 4 years later, much of the area has not recovered. Clearly, Walz has no intention of helping the people of Minneapolis recover after his shocking lack of action.

Now you know why Walz is determined to take guns from law-abiding citizens. He has no problem resorting to tyranny to control the people of Minnesota. Over 100 million died around the world in the 1900s as socialism / communism was being implemented in Russia, China, North Korea, Venezuela, Cambodia, Vietnam, Cuba and other countries.

Democrats use the "gun violence" argument to justify their push. However, never forget...

There is no such thing as gun violence. There is ONLY criminal violence. A gun never ever acts all by itself, and everything else can be used as a weapon... knives, vehicles, bombs, poison, manmade manipulated viruses... whatever people can imagine.
