Downtown Fargo is under siege from rioters. Looting of businesses, breaking of windows, setting fires, and threatening people. Protestors are shouting in the faces of the law enforcement officers who have been using tear gas and pepper balls. The tear gas canisters are being thrown back at the officers. Many admit they are from out of state and came as organizers. It’s terrible!

Our Republic has democratic avenues that need to be utilized. This is NOT how we do things in North Dakota or this Country. We have many wonderful state and local officials who are more than willing to listen to any claims of injustices. More so, we are are more than willing to get to the root of them and solve them, PEACEFULLY.

What happened in Minneapolis is downright a tragedy. I do not know one single person who has seen the video and was not absolutely disgusted by the injustice which brought an end to Mr. Floyd's life. We all wish for a swift justice against his perpetrators. However, destroying the livelihoods of thousands of people from all backgrounds, only sows any divide further and will not solve a thing. Mr. Floyd's own friends and family have called for an end to the violence and destruction.

The people who continue to loot are opportunists who care only about themselves. They do not care about justice. They have cast a shadow over the peaceful and beautiful protest from earlier today. Because of that, both West Fargo and Fargo are now in state of emergencies. Governor Burgum has also declared a state of emergency as well and has now activated the North Dakota National Guard, an act I fully support.

Let those who reportedly came across state lines to organize and stir chaos be tried in federal court for what they are, terrorists. Enough is enough.

************

Rather than let the people of tonight try to divide our community, please join us tomorrow at 10 a.m. in front of the HODO and as a community we will clean-up and assist our businesses in anyway that we can, together as one people, Americans.

If the curfew is lifted, clean-up will begin at 7 a.m.

I believe the meeting place has changed to Pounds!

We saw time after time with #DAPL how the court system caved. Yes— they need swift and harsh punishment.

This sound bad, god luck to you !

In the first few chaotic weeks of the Paycheck Protection Program, federal officials and banks throughout the country struggled to get bailout funds to small businesses as layoffs and furloughs climbed into the tens of millions.
