In 2020, Shivanthi Sathanandan, the 2nd Vice Chairwoman for the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party, demanded Minneapolis defund and dismantle the police force.
The Minneapolis City Council did just that. The lack of funding and support led many to leave the force and not join the department.
The result? Higher crime.
Sathanandan changed her tune the other day when four armed guys attacked and carjacked her in front of her children:
Look at my face. REMEMBER ME when you are thinking about supporting letting juveniles and young people out of custody to roam our streets instead of HOLDING THEM ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS.You could have been reading the obituary for me and my children today. But instead I’m here. To write this.Look at my face. These criminals will not win. We need to take back our city. And this will not be the last you hear from me about this.
The internet is forever.
People on Twitter and Facebook brought the receipts.
I hope Shivanthi Sathanandan recovers and her kids aren’t traumatized from the incident.
I also hope people understand why cops exist. Not all cops are great people, but not all cops are bad people.
We pay too much attention to the bad apples in the bunch. Those bad apples are small compared to the good around them.
Don’t forget what Samwise Gamgee said. “There is good in the world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting or.”
