Minneapolis police on Tuesday reported a recent increase in robberies and carjackings in the Third and Fifth Precinct areas.
According to police, suspects are targeting cellphones, purses and vehicles. Some victims have been maced, dragged, assaulted and some threatened with a gun, police said.
In July alone, 100 robberies and 20 carjackings have been reported to Third Precinct police.
The above is an excerpt from KTSP.
Just wait until this new approach spreads outside of Democrat ruled cities to all of America. Minneapolis is down at least 40 cops since the George Floyd incident. Some have been fired, many have retired.

This is a sad commentary on the state of the country at this point in time. This should never have happened even in the left wing state of Minnesota. The people of Minnesota can’t possibly be naive enough to put these gutless public officials into office. The only answer can be that people with functioning brains in this state just don’t involve themselves in politics. What other reason could there be to allow the social culture to be turned upside down, and the standard of law enforcement to become a police force that publicly advise citizens to “give up their valuables” to thieves (because we can’t do anything about it)?
The police recommendations are typical democrat advice. Do anything possible to increase crime, Just the recommendation to the people there will encourage criminals to hold up even more.
Don’t know if democrats are winning elections. They’re stealing them.
Perhaps a way to lower crime stats? If you “volunteer” your property isnt it, then, a gift, or a donation?
We’ll see how long the citizens put up with this nonsense. There might be a few occasions where the perp gets o good dose of hot lead. Only time will tell.
Good old Minneapolis, goes hand and hand with Ilhan Omar and liberalism / communism. You liberal airheads got what what you voted for, communists!!!!!!!!
Anyone who voted for Omar / Tlaib / Ellison voted for an Islam / Sharia law style brutal dictatorship that rules over the population.
But, call it what you will, Islam, Marxism, Communism, Socialism, Globalism, Far Left Liberalism / Progressivism or the Dem Party: they are all forms of totalitarian governance.
The current Dem Party is obviously totalitarian. It has perverted the rule of law, justified politically motivated lawlessness, promoted anti American propaganda & has incited & politically authorized the use of subversion, criminal aggression, destruction & terror to disarm, intimidate, oppress, suppress & eliminate any opposition that may interfere with their ultimate goal of asserting & maintaining an unassailable power & control over entire population.
Minneapolis, Seattle, Portland, LA, NY, Chicago, Baltimore, St Louis & all other states / cities in the stranglehold of the Dem Party signify the beginning of the end of America, liberty & freedom.
It’s certainly possible that the police have an ulterior motive in telling citizens to “give it up.” Which would be to force these law abiding citizens to take action, take back their city from ANTIFA and BLM by kicking out the City Council and all the libtard politicians.
ALM. BlueLM. Death to ANTIFA.
Taking back the city would require removal of the elected enablers. That isn’t likely to be encouraged by the elected enablers. I doubt there is a ulterior motive other than the complete embrace of lawlessness.
Since this Commie Crap started I am never without my side arm.
This “give them whatever they want” approach is how we used to react to hijackers on planes before 9/11. That didn’t work out so well then.
This won’t work out so well now. Criminals are predators. The sheep might look at them the wrong way and get shot. And then who’s to say if the victim complied? Unless there’s a camera somewhere recording the event, all you have is a dead body. A dead body can’t say, “I complied with all his demands and he shot me anyway!”
It might take a while before we can determine how effective (or not) these steps are.
Also, this violates Broken Window Theory. If you let smaller robberies occur, they will get bold and graduate to bigger and bigger robberies.
The criminals will simply eliminate the “witness”. There’s no apparent punishment for that either.
This is not a place I would want to live in.
In Equadore, where car- jacking is quite prevalent, off duty police drive around in private/unmarked cars trolling for the car-jackers. When an attempt is made on their vehicle, they promptly exit and shoot the perps (dead). Sounds like a good tactic for the riot areas if there are any cops left in the department. Of course, the libs will label them as racist if the criminal happens to be a minority and it obviously denies due process but it would sure cut down the instances of this crime.
This “Give it up” approach is BS. When a crook is upset, and has a jones for a fix, they might get violent simply because you were not carrying enough cash! It used to happen a lot in urban areas. Much of it was racially motivated. We’ve been seeing a lot of it online lately too. This is not going to end pretty!
But if the victim stands his ground & fires at the criminal, could we then consider the victim a criminal & since criminal behavior is rewarded would he not be prosecuted? I just haven’t comprehended this right is wrong / wrong is right thinking yet.
Mr. President, is now a good time to enforce martial law? Or are you still draining the swamp? So far I haven’t seen one drop drained. All you’ve done is stir up the hornets nest. If a victim shoots & kills a crook, and gets life without parole, will you pardon him? Not like you did for Manafort & Roger Stone & others who have stood with you but like you did the drugger lady. I’ve stood with you from day one but am now reassessing.
