  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

If you look at the pictures in the CBS story, and the wide-angle shots in the OP's story, it wasn't a roadblock exactly. It was set up in the middle of an intersection with enough space to get around it on all sides.

You're right that the Minneapolis police are in a difficult position. The right blames them for not responding, but in fact they have responded in the various situations I've seen described in CF threads, and so the left is upset that they're supporting ICE.

The police chief has been trying to build up a force that the citizens can trust. This is making i really hard.
It almost seems like this operation has been designed to cause as much trouble for Minneapolis and the state of Minnesota as possible.

MOD HAT ON

This thread has had a cleanup to remove some flaming and profanity.

It also got a bit off topic. Back to ICE.

Whenever they have to bring back a character who was written out of a previous series you know the show is on the rocks.
