A parent sent us this copy of a newsletter received by her 6th & 7th graders at Justice Page Middle School @JPMSSTEAM in #Mpls at 50th and Nicollet Ave S.
She's concerned about the messaging to this grade level and the fact that it wasn't sent to parents.
.
.
At the bottom of the newsletter:
"The Rhino Report is a publication of @MPS_News, not Justice Page Middle School."
3/ A follower pointed out to us that the use of the word "Toolkit" is used by higher level protest organizations and wonders who's really influencing this kind of messaging.
4/ Let's pull out some specifics from the newsletter. These messages are being directed at ages 12-13:
"Wear nondescript clothing. Even if you aren’t breaking the law, law enforcement may still try to come after you, in these situations it’s better to be paranoid than careless"
5/ Don't post people causing property damage 🙄
"You’re free to document things with your phone, but please don’t post anything with people’s faces/identifying information in them, especially if it’s someone doing art/graffiti."
6/ This, plain and simple, is fearmongering. In what case would a 12-13 year old student at a protest in #MPLS ever be held for 48 hours??? Never.
.
7/ The first sentence is false information. No charges have been filed. This has not been determined to be a "murder." This is narrative indoctrination by @MPS_News and @JPMSSTEAM.
.
8/ Wear protective clothing.... not 'get out of the area if danger erupts.' 🙄
9/ Giving drug and medical advice without regard to possible adverse reactions, allergies or other possible dosing interactions.
12/ The MPS social media manager messaged to clarify that this newsletter was produced by students during an afterschool Community Ed program, not by MPS as the newsletter indicates.

#ThisIsMinneapolis
South Minneapolis - About 8 a.m., female was carjacked at gunpoint at 2xx E Lake by a BM, 40s, with dreads. A dog was in the black VW Passat taken, and the suspect was seen abusing the dog and was ramming other vehicles.
One person said they were shot at.
Listed on the 911 dashboard as a person with a gun.
The carjacked vehicle then became involved in a chase in north Minneapolis, and then crashed with another vehicle in a rollover at Penn and Olson Memorial Hwy. Of four injured parties, two were declared deceased in the vehicle that was struck in a "significant impact." There was also a child critically injured in the vehicle that was struck.
2/ WHEN it turns out that the suspect is a repeat offender that's been spun through the revolving door multiple times, EVERY PROSECUTOR AND JUDGE THAT SLAPPED HIS WRIST NEEDS TO GO TO PRISON FOR LIFE.
3/ @MinneapolisOCS AND @MinneapolisPD, stop lying to the public by omission. REVERSE ENCRYPTION. The public has a right to know what an utter dangerous sh*t show this city is.
Nope. Cedrick Frazier is a Mary Moriarty acolyte and has already been endorsed by Keith Ellison. That tells you everything you need to know.
Also, as a Rep in #MNLEG, Frazier chief authored bills involving:
-Funding for public radio
-Barring landlords from considering criminal record of applicants without jumping through hoops to deny
-Reparations
-Exclusionary funding for black undergrads only
-Weakening felony murder statute
-Allowing medical assistance funds to be used for “violence prevention” services
-Implementing ranked choice voting
2/ Rep. Cedrick Frazier has authored legislation to develop a reparations system and eliminate mandatory minimum sentences for gun crimes. He endorsed Mary Moriarty in 2022.
3/ We were reminded by a follower that Cedrick Frazier is a proponent of changing Minnesota law to raise the age of juvenile court jurisdiction from 18 to 21.
Meaning, he wants criminal offenders aged 18, 19, and 20 to be handled within the juvenile justice system rather than the adult criminal justice system.
