Minnesota GOP hire off-duty police officers for State Fair protection
If we had a strong AG, we'd have an AG telling "alleged members of Somali gangs" what the penalties would be if they harassed people visiting the GOP Fair Booth or any other booth. Ron Schutz, the GOP nominee for attorney general, issued a statement saying "Sheriff Bob Fletcher, State Fair police, and law enforcement officers are using every tool available to protect Minnesota families. They deserve our gratitude and support. They should never have been forced into this position by political leaders who have spent years undermining police and failing to hold violent criminals accountable. Keith Ellison has spent years cozying up to fraudsters. Now his office is negotiating the terms under which alleged gang members may attend the State Fair. As attorney general, I will prosecute criminals—not negotiate the rules under which they can threaten public safety. I have spent my career winning in the courtroom for victims. I will bring that same fight to the attorney general’s office and win prosecutions for the people of Minnesota. Violent gang members do not belong at the State Fair. They belong behind bars."
There isn't a need to negotiate with gang members when the laws are enforced. The Twin Cities is famous for not standing with law enforcement. While it's true that St. Paul is better at it than Minneapolis, that's more of a backhanded compliment than compliment. Check this report out:
It's time to stop letting gangs of all sorts run wild. PERIOD!
