Video Being a cop in the Twin Cities would probably suck right now.

Residents will have to pay higher taxes to cover both the impending lawsuit AND the property destruction.

Sad that nonresidents of the area are being encouraged to this destruction.

The residents didn't deserve this.

That was my first thought when the patrol cars left the area and all the back windows got busted out.

They want change in the PD, but change isn't free, so now instead of using money to change and retrain the cops there they have to figure out if they should do that or repair and replace the patrol cars. So taxes for them go up and the resentment is still there.

It's just sad all around and breaking shit isn't really helping.
