I've revisited in a couple of posts the initial unrest in Minneapolis back in May on this blog recently and shared posts from the Minnesota based blog Powerline which discusses the rift between the Minneapolis Mayor and the Minnesota Governor. It seems a riot in one of the state's largest city wasn't urgent enough for the Governor to immediately mobilize the Nat'l Guard there. I used those posts to stick up for the Mayor Jacob Frey as he hoped to maintain control of city streets there.
Of course what's clear from Lt. Kroll's comments is that there was a failure of leadership long before the unrest back in May of this year. And if you believe what's being said in this report, the damage from this disaster will take many years to recover from and I'm led to believe in spite of Minneapolis being such a "progressive paradise" it's not right now!
