And while he sits behind ranks of state troopers et al the ordinary man on the street suffers. You just have to take his 'photo opportunity' stunt for example and read the accounts of the clergy that were removed forcibly and with violence from the square to see what he is up to.Sue https://www.blogger.com/profile/04947919568474743963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-27552442851666773932020-06-04T07:19:07.436+00:002020-06-04T07:19:07.436+00:00Well, Ann, apparently the case you cite was invest...Well, Ann, apparently the case you cite was investigated and finally taken to a grand jury by Klobuchar's successor when she was already in a US senator. Also, your comments about Democrats as opposed to Republicans completely misses the point. No one said Republicans murdered George Floyd. Trump's actions and rhetoric and that of his supporters only make matters worse.Moving with Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12954028272162285597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-67821860749757549242020-06-04T00:41:54.286+00:002020-06-04T00:41:54.286+00:00It's been a long time .

As for me I am restocking on my mask making supplies for the next one. I need elastic.
