One thought on “The tragic Minneapolis shooting

  1. Glad to have a fast forward to zip past most of this self doubting and hyper cautious narration – but a couple things, like isn’t the Mayor who begins the clip just the most repulsive guy? Remember him during Floyd’s funeral?

    ””””’‘Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey paused before George Floyd’s casket at the memorial. He dropped to one knee and began sobbing, and appeared to say something.”””””

    I mean come on….. (you need to watch it on youtube! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Vph7pc0vFA ) just – well – amazing….

    Anyway – really I think ‘The Salty Cracker’ did much better coverage than this because he is not just about fear of getting canceled like the film here, because the real story is the social pathology, you know what, first of all.

    (, FOMO… we need a new one, FOGC (fear of getting canceled) and as a plus it is cool to pronounce, sounds like the act)

    But – for all the tears – very deserved tears, but I fear most are crocodile ones – but what about the horrific and monstrous genocide in Gaza? I go on about the genocide every chance I get – I shoe horn it into anything I can – but this Mayor and his rage and sobs – by goodness, I would like to see a cream pie hit that goofball hypocrite.
