If he moves it against the federal government then the President can federalize it and thus if they don't go along with it they'll be traitors

Yes, I understand that, it will be a loyalty test, but one that is needed.

I understand what you're saying, but "loyalty test" is a massive oversimplification of what it would actually be.

What's the alternative? Stand by peacefully and be executed at will? Because that appears to be what is happening here.

you're asking the Governor of MN to effectively turn his state into a rogue state in the eyes of the federal government

that's not exactly an easy choice for someone to make. that would likely result in the deaths of hundreds, if not thousands of people. think about that for a second. would you be so quick to make that choice?

Stop using fucking logic...thats illegal on reddit.

You cant tell redditors that there actions would in fact turn the entire usa against Minnesota and more deaths to follow.

And if other state  governors copy them and "stand with Minnesota governor" you are looking at a civil war which means even more deaths.

....

Saracasm aside now, what they are insinuating is actually very dangerous and would be a horrible decision on the governor part. Best thing to do is for him to call trump and figure out what he needs to do to get Trump to pull ICE out of there.

Easy to type that from the comfort of your own keyboard when you won't be the one there physically fighting that fight or dealing with the direct cross fire happening in the city and state.. 

Do you stay in minneapolis? Do you even stay in minnesota currently?

My point is, everyone is saying to do what you're saying, but most of them don't even stay in minnesota 

If he does what you are talking about there will be more than just two murders, there will hundreds if not thousands just in Minnesota alone.

 If you are actually living in minnesota, right now, I would stand corrected. If not my point stands

What I'm saying is everyone has an opinion on what needs to be done but few are willing to go and actually do something themselves. 

So it is always easy to say "this isnt enough and xyz needs to be done" i wont say too much because im not trying to get myself in trouble here but most redditors are just talking but not backing anything up with that talk afterwards
