You are spot on in your assessment. They want to make a lot of noise and cause as much trouble as possible and see their faces on the 10 o'clock news. My gosh, if they got what they claim to want and all was peaceful between the races, what would they do with themselves. Considering this group will be breaking several laws today, it will be interesting to see if the same rules apply to them that apply to us.Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09409645438732452330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292915201767940326.post-47407382717271377712015-08-29T07:31:14.164-05:002015-08-29T07:31:14.164-05:00Those clowns are just about getting their faces on...Those clowns are just about getting their faces on television, and prancing around annoying everyone else. If they had to have a job, they wouldn't have enough time for this stupidity but since they batten on the very people they disparage, they can devote themselves to being a royal pain in the posterior. Which they do very well.Harry Flashmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05071021900005041592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292915201767940326.post-55560152816107342512015-08-29T00:06:56.968-05:002015-08-29T00:06:56.968-05:00Rob...I saw an interview today with a young black ...Rob...I saw an interview today with a young black man who has a booth at the Fair. He is selling Black Lives Matter t-shirts. He was well dressed, articulate and polite. He said that his group was not associated with those who will protest tomorrow. He said that talking with people was the best way to get his message out there.<br /><br />So tomorrow there will be, according to reports, a thousand people in the streets, yelling, carrying their signs and doing their best to make the day a miserable one by blocking traffic and forcing people to hear them and succeeding in ticking people off who just want a day at the Fair. <br /><br />And there will be a well-spoken young man inside the Fair, selling his shirts and talking with those who wish to talk with him. Who do you suppose will have the better results.Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09409645438732452330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292915201767940326.post-90189278161999309332015-08-28T22:26:26.238-05:002015-08-28T22:26:26.238-05:00But you don't understand they are so use to wh...But you don't understand they are so use to whining and throwing a tantrum to get what they want....its just not fair....throwing myself to the floor in a tantrum...I don't think i have ever even seen a black employee at any stand ever.

Kids involved in 4-H or other farm related programs compete to win trips to the Fair to show livestock they have raised or to show other projects they have done. It is a big deal for them. I doubt any of them will be pleased with those out to wreck their day. <br /><br />This protest has nothing to do with vendor space and everything to do with causing as much hate and discontent as possible. Minnesotans are, for the most part, a fairly reserved and tolerant group. But when pushed over the line, the will, without a doubt, push back.Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09409645438732452330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6292915201767940326.post-80826710055491100642015-08-28T14:23:02.987-05:002015-08-28T14:23:02.987-05:00Getting a vendor space at a county fair is tedious...Getting a vendor space at a county fair is tedious. Usually, it takes years and new vendors wait for one of the long time vendors to leave. <br /><br />They can protest, but if they ruin the mood, they'll find they've lost followers and gained enemies.
