both of the other threads i've posted have dipped out after many hours of coverage. here's a thread still following the situation for those who are interested: https://twitter.com/UR_Ninja/status/1265516961410269189?s=20

woah, holy shit. cops are claiming on scanner this guy has a gun (though he claims he doesn't and showed so on the livestream). keep describing him and even stated his name. police seem to be likely focusing on him because he was initiating chants.
seems like some 4chan boards have hijacked the comments on the livestream, and it's likely based on those comments that they're the ones who called in the tip that he's carrying a loaded gun, which he says in a phone charger.
more protests in minneapolis happening rn. here’s a live if y’all wanna watch: https://www.facebook.com/cityofmplsinfo/videos/3152711204787126/
some folks have looted the liquor store again. police scanner claims they are making molotov cocktails in the liquor store. seems like cops might be about to descend on liquor store. "we are locked and ready to go"

anyone else suspect these cops are intentionally impeding response to these fires so they can justify use of force later on?

i'm sorry, but i don't want to see one more white person on my feed passing any judgment on these protesters. ESPECIALLY if you've been silent on George Floyd's murder. you don't know the toll systemic racism and police brutality have taken on this community. sit tf down.

next-day photo of what happens when you get hit with one of those "less-than-lethal" munitions police were firing into the crowd indiscriminately. this is from a journalist covering the protests. it happened on the first day, when police were "peaceful": https://twitter.com/AndrewMannix/status/1265756101057957890?s=20
based on the close explosions you can hear in the background and eyewitness accounts, this is right as/before auto zone caught fire. https://twitter.com/keithboykin/status/1266132570980454400?s=20
article from independent about last night's homicide at the protests: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/minneapolis-george-floyd-protests-riots-death-shot-looting-a9535921.html
the article features this quote by Gov. Walz, but fails to admit these protests turned violent bc of police aggression and instigation: “Tonight was a different night of protesting than it was just the night before,” he told the assembled media.
the media will frame this as BLM escalating the situation needlessly, and will put the brunt of the blame on BLM protesters. THIS IS NOT THE CASE. watch these livestreams. see for yourself. This is your casual reminder that the revolution will not be televised.
"The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command."
oh, come tf on. this is a slap in the face to these protesters and the community, and Michael Freeman knows it. seems odd. why knowingly instigate?? https://twitter.com/ASB_Breaking/status/1266137689700564992?s=20

stream from st paul target with police scanner audio. please let me know if you find a better one:
last stream's comments was taken over by racist fuckers from 4chan. i couldn't take it anymore. here's another:
"Chauvin was our off-duty police for almost the entirety of the 17 years that we were open," Santamaria said. "They were working together at the same time, it's just that Chauvin worked outside and the security guards were inside." https://kstp.com/news/george-floyd-fired-officer-overlapped-security-shifts-at-south-minneapolis-club-may-28-2020/5743990/

anyone have a link to the police scanners? i think they've encrypted again? anyone know what's going on there?
another account rightly pointed out that many immigrants who have fled war zones now live in the Minneapolis area. these folks could be negatively affected by the protests. please check in, if you can, on anyone that might need some support.
reports they broke the gas lines in the building. if true, the building could blow any minute.

for some context, mpd only has 800 officers.
there are reports that other precincts are being abandoned as well : https://twitter.com/CrimeWatchMpls/status/1266227841810694146?s=20
report that there could be someone who perished in a fire at the liquor store. more information to come, i'm sure.
bots have taken over the minnesota tags (surprise, surprise). i, personally, have been added to lists for the purpose of mass blocking/reporting, and other accounts standing in solidarity have been taken down. please be aware.
reports that police are outside precinct 4
natl guard in white trucks. drones are being utlized to surveil protesters.

this is fine. everything's fine. https://twitter.com/pixelatedboat/status/1266270712035020801?s=20
not sure if this is confirmed or not, but i've seen it around a lot and would like to amplify it here jic:
"An African American woman qas kidnapped during the protests in Minneapolis. License plate EEV772. She was wearing a black hoodie and grey leggings or possibly sweatpants."
"An African American woman qas kidnapped during the protests in Minneapolis. License plate EEV772. She was wearing a black hoodie and grey leggings or possibly sweatpants."
license plate circulating could be wrong. i have also rt'ed a photo showing the plate could be EEV-701.
i don't know if anyone needs this info, but here's a thread describing how to treat a gunshot wound:

i think the correct word is “murdered” or “suffocated” or any variant of those. “knelt on” is not it, @APNewsroom. but yes!!!!!! https://apnews.com/e27cfce9464809aa8c91afd74c930bb5?utm_source=Twitter&utm_campaign=SocialFlow&utm_medium=AP
