Walz justifies rioting, says violent community 'rightfully angry' at 'system'
This post is from the World Net Daily Website. Tim Waltz explains why it is reasonable to allow the rioters to burn down several blocks of stores in Minneapolis. Waltz also cleared out the police station in the area and since there was not a strong force to stop the rioters, they just went wild and burned the place down. The area remains a blight to this day. Did this act of violence help the mothers who shopped for food, clothes, and essentials needed to keep the family going? A resounding no!!! So why did Waltz allow this to go on?
'And I want to hold those two truths at the same time. The folks you see out there at Brooklyn Center are in trauma and they're rightfully angry at a system that does not serve them and puts black youth and people of color at risk.'
Those rioters that hit and destroyed entire city blocks in Minnesota cities – and other cities around the nation? Those who turned to vandalism, arson, and worse?
They were "rightfully angry," according to Tim Walz, now Kamala Harris' pick to be vice president.
It was an in interview with WCCO that Walz was asked if the state was going to be ok if businesses were "going to go down."
It was at a time when rioters were destroying literally everything in their path.
"I would tell Minnesotans that we are doing everything in our power to do that," he said.
"And I want to hold those two truths at the same time. The folks you see out there at Brooklyn Center are in trauma and they're rightfully angry at a system that does not serve them and puts black youth and people of color at risk."
He said, "That is all absolutely true. We also know from experience in May that there are those that will exploit that."
The Brooklyn center area of the Minneapolis-St. Paul Twin Cities as been wracked by violence multiple times, including when a George Floyd, a black, died at the hands of a white police officer who was restraining him. Those responsible for his death later were convicted and sentenced.
There have been other times in that community where violence has erupted over other incidents, too.
It happened when Floyd was killed, it happened again the next year when there was a shooting at a traffic stop and looting and rioting erupted again.
Both times businesses were "completely destroyed," according to reports. 1.
