Strib article today, "Minneapolis now focus of racial profiling efforts." http://startribune.com/viewers/qview/cgi/qview.cgi?&slug=race22 Senator Jane Ranum: "I think the questions of why it's not happening in Minneapolis are very important questions for citizens to be asking....There's something very, very different happening in Minneapolis than in St. Paul." Police Federation head John Delmonico: "I think this truly would have been the best place to start to get to the bottom of the issue ...I don't think the community knows why or how we do our job and some officers don't understand how the community feels about how or why we do things to them." A wise statement, but very different from what the police federation was saying last winter during the traffic stop slowdown.
