While I was uncertain if riots were going to occur, I certainly figured it wasn’t going to be some mysterious group from Fargo. The SF Chamber has apologized;

“Griffen said he should have verified the information with police before suggesting protest buses were headed to Sioux Falls from Fargo. The rumor, he said, came from the Downtown Sioux Falls Inc. organization, whose leader said it came from a city councilor.”

The irony is if you know anything about Anti-Fa, they are a loose knit group of individuals, and certainly not racists, and anti-fascism not pro-fascism. As I predicted, it was a bunch of latch key kids with nothing better to do on a summer night.

    The chamber and DTSF run parallel to each other with the RS5. Phoney apology. Them two and the councilor envolved are below whale s$$$ and that is at the bottom!

    Only one City Councilor I know who mongers Facebook rumors and memes. She wears heels.

    i’m not going to pay to read the fargo paper’s website. however, i bet no one from the chamber has apologized in the sioux falls paper yet. maybe the argus can pick that story up from the wire service.

    Let’s see, false rumors, channeling children towards rocks, and no Fleet Farm videos. Yep, I’d call it a fine tuned orchestra. And the false rumors from a council member has to be the one who once said the state refunds communities for lost TIF revenue and initially claimed she would vote for the shelter-in-place on KELO, but then didn’t. Yep, it’s got to be her. #HeelsOrNoHeels

    ( and Woodstock adds: “The idea of buses from Fargo descending upon Sioux Falls, I think that comes from a form of subconscious plagiarism involving an episode of FARGO, if you ask me”….)

    So white supremacy group generated disinformation was spread by the Sioux Falls Chamber and City Councilor?

    “Facebook, using information shared by Twitter, announced Tuesday night it also took down a handful of accounts on its platform that were created by white supremacy groups like Identity Evropa and American Guard, some of them posing as part of the antifa movement.“

    I’m happy everyday we live where we do. For now, it’s safe here more than most of the country. I wish citizens would get involved keeping our Midwest lifestyle. Buses of rioters from elsewhere is effectively a terrorist attack. Fortunately, the secret society money focuses on major cities. I wouldn’t live in LA or Seattle mostly because of the crime and inferior quality of life. Now, let’s replace our unconstitutional city charter, the mayor, and most councilors. Government for the people must return. We are more than a Tweet or Facebook post.

    The weird presence of the “motorcycle club” downtown that night makes me wonder if someone in the motorcyclist community believed antifa would show up. Does anyone know if that club is actually full of local retired cops? Maybe someone on the city council who likes motorcycles could ask around.

    Daily Spn – I could not agree more. I thank God everyday I live in the quiet Midwest part of the country away from the complete and utter lunacy of these Whacko places. The sheer debauchery that is occuring in Minneapolis, Seattle (takeover of 6 blocks by Antifa), Chicago, and many of these places is nothing short of Sad and Frightening.

    Sad thing is when this calms down, riots subside, and folks have to try get back to something normal these places will never recover. Businesses will not rebuild because their own community members burned their shit to the ground. People who depend on those jobs in that community will be impacted the most. See these clowns burn down all the stores and now their neighbors cannot go to work or support themselves. Its another unforced error and self inflicted wound. Anyone who sides with burning your neigbhorhood, down, looting, beating up people, yanking folks out of cars, and flat our terrorizing your OWN citizens is a Whack job period. I feel for the folks who have to stay and live in this crap, God help them

    “America will never be destroyed from the outside (Abe Lincoln)”. This new revolution is dangerous. We’re weakening ourselves into a third world possibility.

    Taking over cities? As long as they don’t paint them taupe, we should be okay. And we’ve been “weakening ourselves into a third world possibility” ever since NAFTA.

    If Janklow were governor there woulda been 3 buses stopped at the border, even if they only had canadian beef cattle inside.

  12. "Very Stable Genius" on June 12, 2020 at 12:52 pm said:

    Janklow would have invaded North Dakota. They have oil. Rioters would have been good cover. Then eventually sell the wells to a Mexican cement oligarch.

    “I had a dream three buses where coming here from Sioux City, but then it turned out that they were just headed for Smithfield and would return by dust”…

    Wasn’t Alex Jensen’s campaign-manager-good-Christian-SEO-guru-lispy-smurf Matt Paulson part of sounding the alarm on social media that busses from Fargo were falling from the sky, too? Such a bright one, that little urchin.
