The last time we checked in on Jake Lang in Minneapolis, he was bleeding from the head after allegedly being stabbed. Lang was back in Minneapolis, and though he wasn't stabbed, he was arrested.
Last week, police were on edge, sending out a message encouraging people to stay away from an August 18 Minneapolis City Council meeting where they were expected to protest the Islamification of the city. "Stay home."
NOW: Dearborn, Michigan police are PANICKING and begging residents to stay home from the Aug. 18 council meeting because anti-Islam protests are expected

Police chief: "Please stay home!!"
They KNOW Americans are fed up with the Islamic invasion.
Keep the protests going! pic.twitter.com/wcEOwO1J8n
Lang rolled past City Hall in the bed of a pickup truck on Saturday, and you can see how that went over. (Language warning)

🚨 JUST IN: Minneapolis police have just ARRESTED Jake Lang and other participants of his protest, tracking down his vehicle and pulling them over

MPD: "All occupants, including Jake Lang, were ARRESTED on probable cause riot."
Leftists with weapons stormed up to the vehicle…
The post continues:
… and started SMASHING it
Minneapolis is total bedlam.
It's pretty obvious that the mayor sent down the order...

In fact, they do this in most blue cities. Blame the right-winger protesting for leftists getting violent!
Mayor Frey knelt at the casket of George Floyd

He's pro-riot but only when it's conducted by the left
I don’t care for the guy, but how is him protesting causing a riot when other people can’t control themselves?

Dems would call this a peaceful protest.

Probable cause riot? Jake Lang is not going there to start a riot. Those lunatics surrounding him certainly are though.

Welcome to Minneapolis.

Where driving your vehicle gets you arrested for “probable cause riots”.
But burining the city to the ground and causing $500 Million+ in property damage is encouraging freedom of expression. pic.twitter.com/lEdEyGDhiC
He was driving on the sidewalks into the crowd. That’s not protesting. Lock him up.

Jake Lang is stupid. He's as bad as "the leftists" causing problems. I just saw he was out of jail and warned him to stay out. He is stupid as can be.

He could have been ignored, but that wouldn't have given all of these people the opportunity to pull out their bullhorns and virtue signal.
