St Paul Polilce going after protesters NOW!
My brother called me from over near the Capital (which is not far from Xcel) he mentioned tear gas and wasn't too sure about rubber bullets.

Nothing being mentioned on local channels.

There are some threads over in the Minnesota forum about this.

2. Holy shit.
I hope your brother stays safe. If this had happened at the DNC it would have been on television 24/7 for the entire week.

It's weird, I feel just like I did watching New Orleans drown. It's frightening.
