Police have endured a wave of assaults from criminal suspects in recent weeks, with at least seven violent encounters occurring in a 15-hour span last weekend across the Twin Cities and many more incidents elsewhere in Minnesota this month.

Law enforcement agencies say that in 18 assaults in the state since May 5 their officers have been hit with objects, bitten, spat upon, kicked, put in a headlock, Maced, scratched and bruised by defiant suspects, some of whom are backing up their actions with verbal threats of serious injury or death.

One leading advocate for peace officers across the state sees a connection between the conviction of fired Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin last month in the death of George Floyd, a killing the world saw unfold in a bystander’s viral video.

“The people out there doing crimes right now know law enforcement is a little more apprehensive when doing their jobs,” said Jim Mortenson, executive director of Law Enforcement Labor Services, Minnesota’s largest public safety labor union. “They don’t want to be the next YouTube sensation. They don’t want to be prosecuted and sent to prison.”

    We've lost almost an officer a day this year. Sad and crazy.

    Clear solution is to send in highly trained and empathetic social workers. Otherwise, if they resist arrest, just stop and call LeBron for his advice.

    You have a thing for 6'5" blondes with broad shoulders? Go ahead and just send him a PM. That's where the rest of us conduct our homoerotic affairs. Just quit doing it in the middle of the store.

    Dems and the high character individuals and some suburban housewives thought that black lives matter was worth voting for. Apparently they were wrong.

    Also in Chicago: Gun violence in Chicago sharply up from last year as 48 people are shot over the weekend, at least 6 of them fatally.

    Chicago’s last Republican mayor left office in 1931.

    Bob, bad shit has always happened and that will always continue. People can be evil. People fight back against cops. It’s not always political and isn’t new, but if the media picks something up, it’s always a big problem to you.

    The big problem is that now they don't want the cops to fight back.

    Yella left Gaybob all red-assed and mad, that's for sure. Gaybob is like a scorned woman, calling out for Yella over and over and over. What a fucking freak.

    "I'm not going to be IGNORED, YellowSnow" cries Gaybob!

    lol

    Bad shit doesn't always happen. Rudy cleaned up NYC. Even Bloomberg let the police do police work and didn't phuck it up. The bad shit that always happen doesn't have to happen. But when you elect a leftard like de Blasio then bad shit does always happen. Take a look at Venezuela and Cuba.
