And I mean, talk about grim.
Like, I think this woman had dropped her kid off at school, like a six-year-old.
And so many people right now, wherever they fall on the political spectrum, feel a kind of helplessness.
Like, wait a second, am I really where I thought the country would be?
And so if you're one of those people and you decide, well, I'm going to go out somewhere, I'm going to do something, I'm going to be present.
And
To protest.
Yeah, protest.
And I'm not saying she definitely was protesting, but just the idea that you are in mortal danger now in these scenarios, I think, is pretty terrifying.
Also, the setting, it being Minneapolis, it being this many years after the death of George Floyd,
it being in a place where protests went for a very long time, and in fact, other protesters were killed, it can spin out into something else.
Then lastly, the fact that this whole operation, almost 90 percent, I think 87 percent of the Somalis in the state are naturalized citizens.

You'll look on your TVs in the next day or two and see some protesters wearing their gas masks already because they have seen this movie before, a kind of militarized response from law enforcement.
I mean, look, if there's one thing we know how to do as Americans is scrutinize a video of a law enforcement involved killing.
I think we had a fair amount of practice at that.
We have not had practice doing that with a white mother, you know, of a couple of kids.
