If You're Looking for a Way to Thank the Residents of Minneapolis..... [View all]

.....for the tremendous example they have given the world of loving, non-violent resistance -- and for epitomizing the teaching of loving thy neighbor -- consider traveling there this year and spending money patronizing the businesses that were negatively impacted by the ICE surge.

I think I read that Mayor Frey has said that their economy was dinged (inadequate word) to the tune of about $200 million. I can't think of a better way I can thank those good, dedicated, deeply committed people than to go visit their town and put some of my dollars into their economy.
