I pasted above a lot of reactions so that Minneapolis people can see that there are people I like who are disturbed about this all over the nation. And I also want those people to know that the story checks out here in Minneapolis.
Also, I am "introducing" people to one another.

Police seem to have little problem handcuffing him. The one who kneeled on his neck arrived later.

Organized demonstration was from 5-7 pm: facebook.com/events/s/i-can…?

Thread on violence afterward (first tweet 7:16 pm) until now (past midnight).
