The Star Tribune is now reporting the following:
An arson early Saturday at a house in south Minneapolis once owned by Gov. Mark Dayton was actually three fires, with one of them at the rear door to the house and another targeting a spigot and garden hose on the side of the house. A third fire, which like the first two apparently was fueled with gasoline or lighter fluid, targeted a porch on the rear of the house.

That's good ol' fashioned 'merican values for ya. If you can't win, smoke 'em out.
People could have died.
The husband and wife who now live there, and who asked that their names not be publicized, were home at the time of the fire. The husband heard the whoosh of flames on the rear wall at 2 a.m. Saturday and ran outside to find his backyard lit up like it was daytime. His wife called the fire department while he extinguished the blazes using a garden hose.

This state used to have class.
I do not condone any one of us doing anything like this in kind.
Here's a link to keep you informed.

(p.s. I am not trying to act like a shill for the DFL. I realize, however, that money will be needed to keep the fight going.)
Peace.
