    That bovine idiot in charge thinks he can speak away our rights and kill a few to do prove it. I’m no where near Minnesota and I often question the actual benefit of just supporting someones efforts with nothing more than words. For what its worth you have all my support and I hope the ICE/proud boi’s don’t decide to murder more of you thinking you are all cowards like them.
