A few weeks ago I was watching Larry King and his guest was Judy Scheindlin -- Judge
Judy. This was right before the arrest of the neighbor of the little girl who was
kidnapped and murdered in San Diego. King asked her for her thoughts about placing
sex offenders back into society, based on h

I'm not going to respond to everything I'd like to for the sake of staying
on local topics. Afterwards I'll take up the rest on MediaWonk-L. :')
The take away point I'd like to make is that is takes a seriously
paternalistic attitude to say that a group of motivated citizens held too
much sway in

Bob,
Since you seem very impressed with the "new" stadium style aspect, I direct your attention to one of the gems of Minneapolis movie theaters, the Riverview. The Riverview is located at E 38th St and 42nd Ave S in south Minneapolis. It was built in 1948 and has stadium style seating. I belie

I've been sitting on my hands and biting my tongue all week while this debate plays
out.
The first conclusion I draw is that some List members are as thin-skinned as most
journalists.
Second, the debate seems to have encouraged many to weigh in through an ideological
prism.

Dear List,
You know, I fail to see any relevance in playing the
game of which city has better cops. That gets us
nowhere fast. We just want to get Minneapolis cops to
the point where Minneapolis residents feel safe with
THEM patrolling OUR streets. Minneapolis residents

I was involved with creating the Predatory Offended Registration

Excellent post, Michael. I concur with your last sentence particularly.
Mpls cops are definitely better than LA or Chicago cops. Some of the posts
here have said how bad Mpls cops are compared to other cities. Where are
these paradises where police can disarm crazy people with no loss of life?
The issue is very pertinent to many of us in the city

did an article on a murder that occured on 26th and
13th Av. in the Phillips neighborhood. While I won't
talk about the gruesome nature of this murder, I will
