Geez. I can't keep any of that straight. I did know about that shooting west of St. Paul (and northish of Bloomington, where I was last week).

Yeah, it's pretty fucked up. The condition of the officers is not known at this time, according to both RT and Reuters. Hope they survive. Let's hope the shooter gets what is coming to him or her.

Welcome to Moe's!!
For anyone who's never heard of or been to Moe's.... each and every time someone walks through the door of their establishment, you hear a very enthusiastic "Welcome to Moe's!"
It's what they do

Make that two officers, according to RT.
Wait... I missed something... what protests? Where?
I hope the officers are okay.

Moe's >>>>>>Chipotle
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Never been to Moe's for a very obvious reason. Entering the establishment and hearing everyone shout WELCOME TO MOE'S is disturbing and something I would rather avoid altogether.

A way better source than the one I was about to post. Slightly more details too.

Actually, that one isn't even working for me. Here is a special report from another local station:
