Police officers and National Guard forces in Minneapolis shot paintballs at residents standing outside on their porch, as a curfew was enforced throughout the city.
A video posted on Twitter on Saturday night appears to show the Minnesota National Guard and state police ordering the residents of one street to go inside, before they turn their weapons on a group of residents.
The footage captures people rushing inside the property after shots are fired and shows where one member of the public has been hit by a paintball.
Armed officers can be heard shouting “light ‘em up” before the shots start.
that one got lots of attention because it was totally unprovoked and aimed at bystanders in their own home, but was far from the worst they also shot live rounds at a car out past curfew, along with tons of less lethals, and linda tirado is currently dying from health struggles initiated by her losing an eye to a baton round (iirc)
a pawn shop owner shot someone too. maybe multiple people?
They also arrested a CNN crew live on air, that was wild but obv way down the totem pole from maiming and killing.
This is the main one I remember from Minnesota

Death to America
if this is what they were doing to journalists you can imagine how well they treated people that didn't have camera crews and press passes
death to america indeed
Jesus I didn't know the guard was issued ammo.
yep the guard had live weapons. it's a miracle it wasn't another kent state or worse
I also memory-holed this one, or maybe never heard about it:
pigs were just riding around in unmarked vans popping people in the face with less lethals with no warning
