state fair goers

[glenn57]

any state fair goers on MNO? I plan on being there this sat!

anyone go to see/join the rally/protest last sat!!!!!!!

[Dotch]

I was at the Fair Saturday and the protesters made themselves look pretty silly. Didn't impact the activities inside the grounds one iota after boasting that they'd shut down the Fair and threatening that any resistance would be met with equal or greater resistance. That might've been real interesting had they attempted to mess with people trying to get their livestock trailers in and out yesterday. Tensions are high enough as it is and in particular messing with the livestock guys would be a good way to get your lights punched out. When are we going to say enough is enough with the road closure thing? I 35 earlier and now Snelling over the weekend. The protesters get no sympathy from me.

Hate the state fair. Only been there 2 times. Wife goes about ever other year. She will be going Sunday with the oldest daughter and our spanish exchange student. Get there when gates open and leave before 1.

I like it. I usually go.
My favorite place? Talking with the kids in the dairy barn. Great kids!

I and a lot of other folks are with ya dotch,what a joke,not one word about all the black on black murders around the country but the minute the media reports a white cop shoots a black man watch out the sky is falling,if thease folks bitchin had a clue as to what respect is and meant we wouldn't be here today,most if not all encounters the police have whether black,white Asian whatever will end badly for those not complying,pretty simple remedey don't ya think?

Back in the day in my home town a bit of discipline was needed.

sure that wasn't a union riot????

[Lee Borgersen]

During those protests the protesters began throwing rocks, bottles with drain cleaner in them, and potatoes with steel spikes in them at the cops. Our mayor The Honorable Richard J. Daily had the patients of a saint. Therefore the next day he posted an order for police to shoot to kill if it continues.

Strangely enough for some reason the next day the protesters disbursed. What a coincidence.

That's what's called progressive discipline!

[Wyofish]

Who is protesting? and what are they protesting? and why at the state fair?

We need this type of enforcement to be applied when these ghetto apes start getting out of control. In my opinion unless they have respect for their own community, how do they expect to get any sympathy from the general public.
