Not the Onion: NY Times on Minneapolis Liberals Trying Not to Call the Cops
26th June 2020
It wasn’t meant to be funny but when you read Wednesday’s New York Times story about virtue-signaling liberals living in the Minneapolis neighborhood of Powderhorn Park trying to avoid calling police despite rising crime due to a new homeless encampment it comes off as hilarious inadvertent comedy. A big factor in the comedic entertainment is provided by Times reporter Caitlin Dickerson writing in all seriousness about how the besieged neighborhood liberals can enforce the law without actually calling law enforcement.
