[Mpls] White Supremacy

The events in New York are the out growth of White Supremacy in the form of zionism in the mideast. Our local election will not bring on a New York sitution,however the total disenfranchisement of a People is no good for business or humankind in general. Slick Bobby Rabek is not the answer !

Thanks to David Strand for the details on the Fargo incident. I heard a bit about it on KFGO on wensday and you're post filled in the details. Last evening 2 more highjackings were averted in NYC, so apparently we're not out of the woods yet. I've spent the last 8 years
