Some of the crowd has split off to march in various directions.

Mpls seems to be OWNED by protestors tonight with no end in sight. Peacefully!

They walk with the protesters. They talk about what is happening. They stop and interview people.
They are doing a great job!! Plus, they are dealing with all the noise.

And its staying peaceful, not giving any reason for a violent response.
I feel sorry for any agitator that tries anything, well, not really, they'll be "urged" to leave and respectfully escorted out.

They are talking to the protesters.

So far, it is holding as peaceful.
