Minnesota House speaker, her husband shot and killed in 'assassination'
Unavailable for legal reasons
Two Minnesota state lawmakers who are members of the Democratic-Farm-Labor Party were shot early Saturday by a person posing as a law enforcement officer just north of Minneapolis.
They have identified a suspect, 57yo dude, named in the article below. The cop car was apparently fake but was an SUV dudded up to look like a real one.

The early morning attacks targeting lawmakers in the northern suburbs of Minneapolis prompted warnings to other elected officials around the state and the cancellation of planned “No Kings” demonstrations against President Donald Trump. Authorities say the suspect had “No Kings” flyers in his car and writings mentioning the names of the victims as well as other lawmakers and officials, though they could not say if he had any other specific targets.
oh well isn't that just fucking convenient
Not really. In trump's ideal world, the protests happen and turn violent.
Worked for a company called Praetorian that he and his wife created. Using that as the name of your private security is suspect based on the Praetorian Guard and its history.
I’m guessing he was one of those Republican hires in an attempt to be bipartisan.
I wouldn't be able to tell the difference
Don't even have to dud one up, you can get running used cop explorers or durangos at auctions for like $2k in the right places, and already have the wheels and bullbar and paint scheme.

EU saving my ass from another invasive data farmer lol
Which again shows that the site owners don't even know what 451 is referring to in the first place.
It'd be hilarious if it wasn't so post apocalyptic
By a pig
A man impersonating a pig, at least.
A security company, run by evangelicals. Not sure where the line is between security guard and privatized police acting in a zone they were not authorized in.
Off duty security guard may be the best term. The security group likely makes their vehicles and gear look similar to police intentionally so people react to them like police.
Laws against such would be good.
If it isn't obvious from putting 'assassination' in quotes, The Center Square and its owner, Franklin News Foundation, provide news from a right-wing perspective.
This is so fucking awful
We can take that out of quotes, I think.
What are you? 13? Read the room.
