Last night, here in Minneapolis, five protesters were shot by white men suspected to be white supremacists. Police then moved in on and maced protesters, did not move in to catch the shooting suspects, and were slow to take statements from witnesses. Many on twitter also report derisive and dismissive comments from police on the scene and police dispatchers.
