It has begun…
The first shots have been fired in the next battle of the “woke” inquisition’s war on America, a likely precursor to a looming explosion of violence, looting, and mayhem that is set to erupt in Minneapolis and spread like wildfire across the nation.
Over the weekend, one man died after gunshots shattered the night in the “autonomous zone” that has been set up in the city near where the trial of former police officer Derek Chauvin who is accused of murdering longtime criminal and drug addict George Floyd, a man whose death lit a match to the powderkeg of racial acrimony that has been filled to capacity ever since Barack Obama and Democrats weaponized race for political gain.
In an area that is similar to other lawless encampments that have been set up in cities turned into shitholes by liberal politicians including Seattle and Portland, reports of up to 500 gunshots resulted in the shooting of two individuals with one being fatal.
The “autonomous zone” which is named “George Floyd Square” has now received its baptism in blood as a city on edge prepares for a day of reckoning if the jury fails to convict Chauvin on the most serious charge of second-degree murder and life in prison, a death sentence for any former cop let alone one who has killed modern America’s incarnation of Jesus Christ.
A new autonomous zone has popped up in Minneapolis, and surrounds the death site of George Floyd.

Via The Minneapolis Star Tribune, “Man fatally shot near George Floyd Square in Minneapolis”:
A man was fatally shot Saturday evening near E. 38th Street and Chicago Avenue, the Minneapolis intersection known as George Floyd Square, where Floyd died in police custody last May.
According to police spokesman John Elder, police got a ShotSpotter notification about 5:45 p.m., and 911 callers reported that two people had been shot and were being brought to the barricades at the area’s entrance. When officers arrived, the victim was already gone.
Police later learned that the victim, a man believed to be in his 30s with a gunshot wound, had been taken to Hennepin County Medical Center, where he died. No second victim appeared, Elder said.
“Officers were met with some interference” when they arrived at the square to investigate, Elder said, without giving further details. He said that officers’ body cameras may provide more information.
Investigators’ initial findings are that the victim and a suspect had a verbal disagreement and the suspect shot the victim before fleeing the area, heading north in a cream or light-colored Suburban with gunshot damage.
White people have been forbidden from entering the area.
A black man was shot and killed by George Floyd Square. The entire area has been transformed into an "autonomous zone," an activist tells me. I was not allowed entry because of my skin color. Meanwhile, some nearby residents call BLM a terrorhttps://t.co/DuxkaN203E

Additional details per the Washington Examiner, “Death and ‘autonomous zone’ grip George Floyd Square ahead of Chauvin trial”:
For residents of the neighborhood where George Floyd lost his life last May, peace and quiet increasingly seems like a pipe dream.
A grim tragedy erupted on Saturday night when another man died near what is now called George Floyd Square, an intersection of blocks that serves as a permanent vigil. This time, no police were involved in the killing of the victim, who authorities said died after suffering multiple gunshot wounds.
Kim, who serves as a medic for the “autonomous zone” organized by self-identified Black Lives Matter activists surrounding George Floyd Square, said she heard what sounded like “500 gunshots” during her shift.
“I was first on the scene. Emotions are just so high right now. I’ve been awake for 36 hours,” she told the Washington Examiner. “You picked the wrong day to come here.”
Kim said the man was black. Authorities have not identified the victim.
Makeshift barriers and gates surrounded George Floyd Square as of Sunday evening. No white people were allowed access to the area by local activists out of a supposed concern for the “healing” of the community, according to Kim. Those passing by the barricades were waved along and asked to leave, with those manning the gates treating their job as some sort of official duty.
Those kinds of restrictions infuriate locals like Teresa Stiller, who lives just a block away.
Stiller says she and her neighbors tried working with protesters, respecting memorials but asking that traffic flows not be disrupted. In response, she and others were met with threats by people who don’t even appear to reside nearby, Stiller said.
“We live here. We want to live here. This isn’t their neighborhood. I’ve had bullets whiz by me right here,” Stiller said on the sidewalk outside her home Sunday afternoon. “I have post-traumatic stress disorder now. Whenever I hear a loud noise, I either start crying, or I duck.”
