A resident of St. Paul is a St.Paulite, by the way.

Bill has some video from the Minnesota RollerGirls too. Sorry I missed the finals.

Appreciate the edification, Maz…

For someone that calls the Democratic Party the Democrat party someone should head over you your house and smash in your face for that comment Maz.

Hey, I was talking to my friend about the Republican Convention and how much of a shitshow it’s going to be. He had a good question:
Where do you think they will be detaining everyone who gets arrested? Or do we already know the place?

Bixby,

I think they are just going to put them in cages on floating barges on the river. That would be cost effective. No need to transport them very far. Isolated. They will dock a paddle boat at Harriet Island for processing.

That towing site is strange and hilarious. The term “non-consent towing” is interesting.

Aren’t the people that are being non-consent towed breaking the law?

e.g. not moving a car for snow emergency, parking in a parking lot they’re not supposed to, etc . . .

i am going to drink and watch hippies be arrested. loads of fun.
plus we can stay out till 4. i’m heading down with a camera with full batteries, ready to document this fiasco…

I’m going far away and watching on TV. I have a propensity for going from innocent bystander/observer to victim/arrestee. guilty face, I guess.
